The small, dynamic language school specializes in Spanish language and culture, and offers Spanish courses throughout the year. Founded in 1997 with nine years' experience, the language school is accredited by Instituto Hispánico de La Rioja (IHLR) and recognised by CSN ( Sweden ).
Team of Spanish Teachers
The educational team consists of experienced Spanish teachers who are degreed in philology. Their preparation and passion to teach Spanish are evident both inside and outside of the classroom.
Spanish Courses
Spanish Courses are oriented towards communication and action; the main priorities are effective communication and correct situational usage. Thanks to a carefully designed program covering all aspects of language, a great number of different subjects are dealt with in an intensive manner so that maximum progress is guaranteed.
Methodology is focused on direct communicative approaches. As a result, the school’s dynamic Spanish courses involve active student participation.
The number of students per class, between three and eight, reinforces this methodology and makes the student-teacher relation close.
Spanish Courses Description
- From two weeks to three months.
- Intensive Spanish courses comprised of four hours daily, Monday to Friday.
- Intensive-plus and Special Spanish courses comprise of six hours.
- In all cases, one hour equates to 45 academic minutes.
- On national holidays, there will be no classes. On regional and local holidays, there will be classes or extra activities.
- The size of each group varies from three to a maximum of eight (average 4.5), so that each student has the opportunity for active participation.

In Intensive Spanish courses, up to six different levels are offered at the beginning of each Spanish course, ranging from basic to proficient users.
- A test taken on the first Monday of the Spanish course, together with an informal conversation, will be used to assess student knowledge. Self-assessment on the registration form, together with the result of this test, will help us to determine which level is most suitable for each student.
- It is usually possible to change levels during the Spanish course.
- A certificate which confirms the type of Spanish course, duration, intensity and level will be awarded to those regularly attending the Spanish course.
