Hello All! My 19 yr old daughter is finishing her AA at the local CC. With your past recommendations, she was able to get Elementary Spanish 1 and 2 through Sophia and get the credits accepted at the CC. Next challenge - we are looking for online, non proctored, INTERMEDIATE Spanish 1 and 2 courses - preferrable self paced. Spanish is her weakest area and we tried the INTERMEDIATE spanish at the CC twice and had to drop - it just didn't take for her. In order to finish the BA at the Univ, she will need those two INTERMEDIATE spanish courses. Bottom line, we need to find the most user-friendly courses just to get those done and checked off the list. Does anyone know of any online, non proctored, INTERMEDIATE Spanish 1 and 2 courses - preferably self-paced?
TN eCampus has INTERMEDIATE Spanish 1 and 2 courses, but they will not verify whether those are proctored or not. They tell me it depends on the instructor(s).
STUDENT INFO:
State: TN
Age: 19
57 hours completed: combination of CLEP, CC courses, and Sophia (including sophia Spanish 1 and 2)
AA will be completed this spring
Transferring to an in-state Univ next Fall (TBD) with 60 hours remaining for Technical Writing / English BA.
As always, any info is much appreciated!

I am not aware of any unproctored options, but my friend used the ACTFL exam for the spoken language proficiency, and it gave her 12 credits at UMPI via ACE credits. It might be worth checking, as it was really a conversation:

For your student, it sounds like she needs to achieve Intermediate/Mid:

Did you take some time to review the WIKI for obscure credits? An example - Maybe take a look at BYU and if they have online classes for languages at the intermediate level. Here's the WIKI page I mentioned:

The UNAM Cepe online school always offers Intermediate Spanish classes for around 50 USD per credit. These classes are aimed at foreigners learning Spanish
They are usually synchronized Zoom classes, not self paced. There are also Spanish language taught culture, history and sometimes Literature courses, which might transfer to TESU for the Spanish degrees.
Their next online language course starts in the middle of January, a 6 credit combo for around 450 usd.

Make sure the classes are transferable before you take it... ACTFL is a great option if they take the exam for credit, if they need RA classes, then you'll have to take the classes either online from one of the institutions that offer it, I would check the community colleges first and then work your way up to universities...
