The maximum number of students per class and level is 6, our method guarantees personal attention. Students are in constant, direct contact with the teacher and the programme is taught with the interactive participation of teacher and students.
Our method is based on listening comprehension and oral and written expression. Owing to the experience we have gathered since 1975, we can ensure the best possible results in the shortest possible time: An essentially practical method that does away with the complications of a rule-based grammar and focuses on real, practical, everyday language.
Our students hear, write, read and speak Spanish from the very first day they arrive at Valladolid.
We offer folowing Spanish courses:
Course 20h 4 classes a day Duration: min. 1 week Group: máx. 6 students
Our intensive Spanish courses are designed for all students over the age of 14 wanting to begin or improve their skills in and knowledge of the Spanish language and culture. On the first day, students do a short test so that we can place them at the level that best suits their knowledge. Our language school has five levels: Beginners, Elementary, Intermediate, Advanced and Proficiency.
There are never more than 6 students in a group, which enables rapid, efficient progress for all in the four language skills: listening comprehension, speaking, reading and writing.
Our intensive courses are made up of 20 hours a week in the morning or afternoon, depending on the time of the year and the level.
Course 30h 6 classes a day (4 classes in a group with max. 6 students + 2 classes in a super-reduced group or individual classes) Duration: min. 1 week
Immersion courses are aimed at the Spanish students who have little time and need to progress in a relatively short time. We recommend this course to students who have a basic knowledge of the Spanish language.
The immersion courses involve 30 hours a week. After a short placement test, students are put into small groups of a maximum of 6 and receive 4 hours a day as part of the intensive course and, later, a further 2 hours a day in individual classes or in classes with a very small number of students.

Depending on the chosen duration, the course begins 4 or 8 weeks before the exam. The course comprises 20 hours a week and the content is aimed exclusively at preparing students for the exam. We use only our own material and official past examination papers, with excellent results.
Similarly, since 2005, our Spanish language school offers a complementary course for students on any of the courses given at the school. This course adds 10 hours a week exclusively aimed at preparing the D.E.L.E., given in a timetable that is compatible with the main course.
