“Me gusta el español, pero no lo hablo.” : Un estudio de la fluidez en estudiantes de Español como Lengua Extranjera (ELE) en Jönköping, Suecia.

Sammanfattning: This is an investigation about the fluency level in Spanish that Swedish students have gotten after studying the course B2 advanced level of Spanish. We used the scale that the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages of the Counsel of Europe has made for the schools. At the same time the results of this investigation could show the motivation level of the students of Spanish in relation to the quality of speech and fluency. It was possible through a conversational test, where they were interviewed by a Spanish speaker interviewer, who asked questions and recorded them. It was done in most of the high schools in Jönköping, Sweden, where Spanish is taught as a modern language. We used a qualitative and quantitative method, to show if the conversational level that the students have, responds to the requirements that the Swedish education ministry (Skolverket) and the Counsel of Europe expects.
