 Our Spanish language courses in Bilbao are run all-year-round at different levels, from complete beginner to proficiency.
Generally, the classes are from 9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., from Monday to Friday. The classes last 55 minutes each. Afternoons are filled with a wide variety of courses along with fun activities, outings, fiestas, barbecues, concerts, cinema and sports. You will have the chance of meeting Spanish people, making friends, and practicing what you have learned through contacts provided by our school.
In all our courses we try to study individually and then integrate the four language skills: reading, writing, speaking and listening. In addition to these skills, we also emphasise grammatical structure so the student can eventually reach the threshold of communicative proficiency. Learning a language is a dynamic process in which the students live within the Spanish culture while being totally immersed in the language itself. In order to broaden the student’s general perspective, we offer the possibility of studying many different aspects of the Spanish culture including history, art, civilization, literature, cinema, etc.

 Beginner: For those who have very little or no prior skills in Spanish. Unable to communicate in everyday situations.
Intermediate: You have an acceptable level of Spanish, but there are still basic grammatical and lexical errors requiring improvement.
Advanced: You are familiar with a wide range of grammatical structures, but you still have some practical problems in applying them. Special attention is paid to typical errors, as well as to colloquial and literary expressions.
On the first day at our school in Bilbao you will be asked to do a placement test which will reflect your current level of proficiency and enable us to assign you to one of the groups.
Our school makes sure that the levels of language competency adopted by our school correspond to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages, in order to facilitate the equivalence of students’ assessment and students’ certificates.
