Course overview
This Spanish course combines the Intensive 20h program from 9.00h – 13.00h (20 hours per week) and the Spanish conversation and business Spanish classes from 15.30h – 17.30h (10 hours per week). Our most immersive course is great for students who want to learn as much Spanish as possible in the shortest amount of time. Intensive group classes are four hours every day, Monday through Friday, in the morning. Class is divided into two blocks, one teacher for each half, with a small break in the middle. In the afternoon you will have an hour of Spanish Conversation class and an hour of Business Spanish class. This gives you time to cover all aspects of Spanish language learning each day: grammar, reading, writing, listening, and speaking.

Reviews
It is my fourth week with the program, and I plan to stay for 8-10 more weeks. The quality of the teachers is very high, I’ve been impressed with their abilities to explain words and concepts in Spanish to those who are learning without utilizing another language such as English or a dictionary. It’s a truly immersive experience, which helps one progress quite rapidly. In addition, they take the weekly social activities seriously, so that we can enjoy and get to know other students and the city. Each week they prepare several activities for students and alumni at no or very low cost (ie 5€). Lastly, customer service is excellent. They worked with me and around my specific situation and problem(s), came up with creative solutions, were accommodating, etc. I would give a 6 star rating if I could! Above these very practical things, this place is so much fun!
