Spanish Schools in Spain
Private Lessons
For students and professionals wanting to master Spanish quickly or who are unable to attend a regular timetabled course. Individual classes can be taken alongside group classes. We plan the classes according to your schedule and specific needs. The pace of the course is set by you, and these courses are designed to be as flexible as possible.
Business Groups
Spanish for Companies. Business Spanish
The Spanish Seminars for Professionals are aimed at companies and professionals interested in learning Spanish to be able to manage teams, negotiate, write properly, give presentations, and actively participate in meetings without making mistakes. The Spanish Seminars are organised for participants to acquire the fluency required to progress in the labour market.
The course content focuses on relevant areas, adapted to the ability and specific needs of the professionals in their working environment. Due to the intensity of the programme, it is recommended for strong-willed and highly committed people, with an intermediate Spanish level (B1 minimum) according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages.
School Trips
Schools, institutes, student groups
Aimed at schools, universities and other educational institutions that send groups of students and teachers abroad to further boost their Spanish language skills - building on any knowledge already gained while studying in their respective home countries.

Our academy organizes study visits to Madrid as a way of motivating students and improving their Spanish at the same time. All of our staff are committed to making your stay in Madrid productive, safe and fun.

Our direct and interactive teaching style is based on communication, which means practical language use in real-life situations, and learning is easy, fun and efficient. The study programme is designed according to the wishes of the group's teachers and the needs of their students.

The extracurricular activities, just like the academic programme, can be chosen by the teachers and their students. Here are just a few of the various activities on offer: conferences (on history, art, literature, culture and society), workshops (writing, conversation), trips to museums, Real Madrid's stadium Santiago Bernabéu, Faunia (zoo and botanical gardens), trips to Toledo, Segovia and Salamanca, guided tours of Madrid, etc.

After classes you are also invited to take part in the extracurricular activities that we offer to all our students.
Activities
Alongside our academic programmes we also offer various extracurricular activities so students can have fun and learn at the same time.
