How it works
A direct, communicative method, with a native teacher and a small group, so you leave one session already speaking.
No grammar, all practical
Ready-to-use phrases, no rules to memorise. Everything you learn you can say out in the street the same day.
Speaking first
Oral communication from minute one, with exercises and real situations guided by a native teacher.
Small group
A maximum of six people per session, so you speak a lot, get corrected and clear up all your questions.
You take it with you
Your survival workbook
You take home the course materials, with all the phrases, vocabulary and examples, to keep referring to them throughout your trip around Spain.
Staying more than three weeks?
