Spanish Course Materials

Cactus Spanish courses are structured around a Spanish language course book. Cactus teachers will use the course book activities and exercises in class, and may also use the course book to set homework. Learn more about Spanish course materials below.

Course Materials

The course book will be used approximately 60% of the time. The other 40% made up of activities and tasks sourced by the teacher from additional resources. Your teacher will use their own materials and practice activities from other books. Will also use materials from newspapers, magazines, the internet, video, radio, and podcasts.

On this page you can check which course material you need to buy for your Spanish course level. We also offer our top tips on how to make the most of your course book.

Where to buy your Spanish book

Cactus students should be able to find most of our course books on BEBC.

Alternatively, you may also find your course book on AmazonAbeBooks or eBay. To help support sustainability in the world of education, we highly recommend purchasing second-hand copies of your course book where possible. Purchasing second-hand books helps reduce waste and provides a more cost-effective option for students, so it’s a win-win for everyone!

Digital Editions

If you prefer a digital edition of your course book alongside a physical copy, you may also be able to purchase a licence to access an online copy for 1 year (premium student’s licences bundles). Please check digital editions details below.

Please note that Cactus is not involved in the books selling process. If you have any enquiries about your order, please contact your book provider directly.

Frequently asked questions

What will I learn?

Our Course Outlines give an overview of the content and learning framework of Cactus courses. Includes themes, grammar and vocabulary you can typically expect to cover. These are intended as a guide only. Language teachers may at times adapt the course content to suit the specific level, aims and interests of the class.

How do I know what level I am?

Are you unsure where to start or progress to? Then take our level test and read our level descriptions for guidance.

Do I receive a qualification or certificate?

At the end of your course you receive a certificate of participation. You will be able to be download it from your MyCactus account. This confirms the language and level of course you have taken. Our course levels are based on two internationally recognised systems. You will have a universally accepted reference for your studies. (Important: Please note that you must complete the end of course questionnaire sent to you to be able to get your certificate! You will receive the course questionnaire by e-mail at the end of your course.)

Do I need a course book?

You will need a course book to attend your course. Course books are not included in the course fees. We recommend that you buy your own course book separately before your course starts. We will let you know which course book you will require and advise where you can purchase this. Please note that a course book often covers more than one level. So if you progress to the next course, you may not necessarily need to buy a new book. Again, we will advise you of this at the time. The course book is chosen by our teachers and academic team. This is based on which book is most suitable for the level of the class whilst offering the most communicative approach.
