The Anderson Language and Technology Center (ALTEC) at the University of Colorado Boulder can guide your language learning adventure. When you’re stress-free from earning a grade, the only priority is learning, the center says.

The fall 2019 classes will include multiple levels of French, Italian, and Spanish. “We are also excited to announce that our program has expanded to feature less commonly taught languages—join us to learn Japanese and Thai this fall,” the center said.

Evening classes are well suited for busy adults with a desire to learn new languages and about cultures. “These engaging classes are non-credit with no tests and our students are highly motivated to learn the language for use in their professions, social lives and travels—read what they have to say!” 

Students enrolled in ALTEC language classes have access to a large collection of language learning materials. Need another reason to join? Learning another language can increase your memory plasticity!

Classes run for ten weeks beginning on Sept. 9 and meet once a week at 5:30-7:30 p.m. in the Hellems building on campus. 

The community member tuition cost is $250, and current CU faculty, staff and graduate students receive a 50% discount. 

Classes fill up quickly, so it is best to enroll as soon as registration begins. Payments can be made by credit card, cash or check. Interdepartmental invoices are also accepted, should your department wish to sponsor your tuition.
