Stress and anxiety are part of everyday life, so learning how to manage them is important. This Spanish course is designed to teach you basic stress-related vocabulary and the hobbies and leisure activities you can do to relieve it. We provide the language phrases you need to discuss what you do to relax and relate accounts about your past and current hobbies.

After supplying new vocabulary, the course focuses on two grammar areas, beginning with the past perfect continuous tense and its forms. We then compare the past perfect continuous tense with its past continuous counterpart and demonstrate how to use the past continuous tense to discuss old habits. Our second grammar topic teaches you how to use ‘soler’ and the ‘copretérito’ and compares the use of the two to discuss past habits. We explain how to combine these with adverbs of frequency and identify the correct placement of the adverb.

The course then integrates your vocabulary and grammar skills by practicing reading, listening, and writing using what you have learned about hobbies, stress management, the past perfect continuous, the past continuous, 'soler,' and ‘copretérito.’ We have included writing tips and exercises in our 'Resources' section to help you practice your skills and gain confidence. Sign up to gain confidence as you engage your newfound vocabulary and grammatical skills to discuss what you do for fun in Spanish.
