Study plan · Conversation on La Malagueta Beach, Málaga
Spanish on the beach
A conversation course by the sea, on La Malagueta Beach. In class you only speak: conversation, roleplay and real-life situations, no theory. You work on grammar on your own, at your own pace, and put it into practice speaking on the sand. Book from a single hour, or go all the way through the A1 to C2 journey.
Conversation by the sea at La Malagueta: private class or private group Mon to Fri, 9:30 to 18:30 from €30 an hour discounts from 20 h start any Monday
A class just for speaking
There's no theory here: class time is entirely for speaking. You study grammar on your own, with a level-by-level roadmap, and consolidate it through conversation on the beach.
In class
Conversation only
On the sand at La Malagueta you speak from the first minute: conversation, roleplay, games and real-life situations. Class is where you loosen up, lose the fear and build fluency.
On your own
Grammar at your own pace
You work on grammar independently, with a level-by-level roadmap we give you. Study whenever and however you like, and lock it in by speaking in every session.
Bring a beach mat or towel, sunscreen and water; we provide the materials. If the weather doesn't cooperate, the class moves to the school, a block from the beach, and carries on without interruption.
How you progress
In this course, class is 100% conversation and you study grammar on your own. As a reference, the full A1 to C2 journey is around 980 hours: about 320 of conversation in class and 660 of independent work (grammar, vocabulary and practice). You book as many conversation hours as you like, from a single one, and move at your own pace.
| Level (CEFR) | Conversation in class | Independent work (grammar & practice) | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| A1 | 40 h | 80 h | 120 h |
| A2 | 40 h | 80 h | 120 h |
| B1 | 60 h | 120 h | 180 h |
| B2 | 60 h | 120 h | 180 h |
| C1 | 60 h | 120 h | 180 h |
| C2 | 60 h | 140 h | 200 h |
| Total A1→C2 | 320 h | 660 h | 980 h |

How it works
A communicative methodology that puts all the focus on speaking. Grammar is your work, guided; class is pure practice, supervised by the Academic Director.
Speak from minute one
Every session is speaking practice: you converse, react and make mistakes without fear. The more you speak, the faster it starts to sound natural.
Guided, independent grammar
We give you a grammar roadmap by level so you study on your own. You set the pace; in class you put it to the test by speaking.
Roleplay and real situations
Roleplay, games and everyday scenes on the sand, to use what you study in real, memorable contexts.
Assessment
Assessment focuses on what you practise: speaking and oral interaction. It's continuous, close and coherent with the CEFR.
Initial placement test
A placement test sets each person at the right CEFR level and defines the starting point and speaking goals.
Ongoing oral feedback
On-the-spot correction during conversation, with clear pointers so you keep improving on your own between sessions.
Milestones by level
As you reach each level, an assessment conversation confirms your oral competence, with a CEFR-aligned rubric.
Certification
Internal certificate aligned with the CEFR
As you reach each level you receive a ¡Vamos! Academy certificate documenting your conversation level and the hours completed, against the CEFR descriptors.
After an official qualification?
Conversation is the best base for the speaking part of the DELE or SIELE. If you want to sit one, we guide you on how to cover the other skills on your own.
See you on the beach?
From €30 an hour, all included and no registration fee, with discounts from 20 hours. Book from a single hour, take the free placement test and start speaking any Monday.
