Course description

This programme is specially drawn out for students that are looking for an “all-inclusive” option of studies.
It includes the Spanish lessons (20 hours/week), accommodation (Homestay/single room/full board) and an arrangement of extracurricular activities and excursions. Lessons normally take place in the mornings while games, cultural activities, sightseeing and outings occupy our evenings.
Zaragoza offers tons of opportunities for the carrying out of these activities. These include cultural visits to Zaragoza Expo, Zaragoza Romana, Goya … As well as to places of entertainment that cover Espace room, tapeo “Juepincho”; practice of horse riding, adventure sports …
Our goal is not solely the learning of Spanish but also a total immersion in our culture through the combination of active lessons plus cultural and playful activities.

"Very good experience"

David Juteau, student from France

A very warm welcome, a program adapted to my level (advanced), based on conversational and some exercises on the particularities of the Spanish language.
Relaxed but hard-working atmosphere.
Note the many activities offered by the academy in the afternoon, thanks to a very very dynamic, friendly and cheerful facilitator/teacher.
I was able to significantly improve my level of Spanish.

I recommend 100%

"Very successful week with Yolanda and her small family school"

Augustin de Kerleau, student from France

Very successful week with Nous Formaciones. Small school run as a family business. There were three students in class, ensuring a very active and efficient participation and progresses.
Activities were great, not pre organized and standardized and fully adapted to the requests and center of interests of the students and their own wishes.
They felt part of Yolanda's family.
Congratulation to Yolanda for her school. The whole experience exceeded our expectations.

"Quality teaching at a homely school"

Katla Traustadóttir, student from Iceland

We had a wonderful time at Noûs! Our teacher was absolutely lovely, she spoke very clearly and made sure to only speak spanish with us from the start. We were the only two spanish students at the school at the time, as november is definitely a low season for tourism in Zaragoza, but there were also a couple of english students that we got to speak to in some of our classes. The school is also a short distance from the city centre, just across the river. After classes we often walked over the old bridge, Puente de Piedra, to wander around Plaza del Pilar, the small streets of the Tubo, and the Alfonso shopping street. We learned a whole lot and had a wonderful time!

Thank you for your kind words. It was a great pleasure to meet you.

"It was a great experience"

Davide Bordonaro

The number of the students inside the classroom was small, 4 o 5 students and that's because of the Covid 19. Professors were very kind, prepared, young and they helped me a lot to improve my skills and level of my Spanish language.

the school is pretty close to the center and after my lessons, i used to walk around the city. I truly recommend to take a class in this school.
