En Espanol, Por Favor

Hubby and I went back to Spanish class again. It has been years and we still can say very little.
We received a notice that our class, Spanish 4 , was in danger of being canceled so we figured to sign up for Spanish 3 again. But when we got there we found that two new members have joined the class. One of them had lived in Nicaragua for several years and the other could read Spanish but not speak it well. So the class is on and we are the dumb ones again.
