Tam Le, student from USA

Small classroom size no more than 8. Very interactive which is a great way to learn and practice and utilize what you in the real world immediately. Great convenient location. Amazing teacher and staffs. I got sick. December is a cold month in Spain. But I would do it again.

Thank you for your review! We're delighted to hear that you appreciated our small class sizes, interactive learning environment, and convenient location. It's wonderful to know that our teachers and staff left a positive impression on you.

We're sorry to hear that you got sick during your stay, but it's great to know that despite this, you had a positive experience and would do it again. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future!

"Profesional teachers, good atmosphere and nice activities"

R. van Veen, student from Netherlands

In general everything was nice.
I liked the way of teaching and all students were determined to study seriously.
I was in 30+ class.

I am not able to tell anything about housing because I had found accomodation by myself.
I only took one week of classes, and therefore I
think that it would have been better for me to take private classes
