"It was quite enriching my experience for all points of view."

Gláucia Beretta, student from Brazil

The classes of conversations that I chose were very rich because of their cultural content and how much it allowed us to discuss and learn about the countries of each one of us participants of the group.
The teachers were deeply knowledgeable about the topics presented and quite adept at making us all talk.
The central locations, the school and the accommodation, as well as the two nearby points, well arranged and with everything necessary at our disposal.
Extra activities for all tastes and at good prices.
Groups of teachers, staff and students very kind and friendly.

"It was a very impressive and interesting time in which I learned much about Spain and in which I met many very nice International people but the only problem was that it was difficult to find situations in which everybody was just speaking Spanish instead of English."

Benedikt Wrede, student from Austria

The classes were most of the time very small and the teachers were excellent! The location was very central. the activities were a bit expensive I think. Housing was very nice but it didn't have the effect I was looking for: The family was very nice, but I looked for a family for learning Spanish. At the family's flat there were four students from the United States who just were talking English and at the breakfast the host-parents weren't sitting at the table. so nearly all the time there was spoken English instead of Spanish.
