"It was amazing experience that I would like to retake it again soon."

Abdulla Husain, student from Bahrain

As an absolute beginner, I have learned a lot in one week and I wish I didn't have any commitments back home at that time so I can extend my classes. The teachers were so amazing and nice. I learned a lot of things in one week because of their experience and the way they give you the information. Definitely, I will come back next year and I'll stay longer but until that time I will continue learning Spanish so I can take the advance classes.
The only thing I didn't like was they didn't inform me that the first class begins at 8, so I missed it.

"3 weeks of intensive language courses in Barcelona"

nouemaa filali adib, student from France

The classes were very interesting, the teachers were very helpful and sympathetic.

Unfortunately, the school and the housing were quite far from the center of Barcelona.

I was very disappointed by the housing: The heat was intense (more than 35°) and the room was very small without air conditioning. Even worse, there was no window and there were many mosquitoes! Many nights, I did not sleep!

It is absolutely essential to provide air conditioning.

"A very open-minded trip in which I managed to explore a new city and learn its language in the best way possible."

Matilde Gusmaroli, student from Italy

I am really happy with the outcome of this trip, not only because I have improved a lot in my Spanish language, but also because I have met lots of different people from all over the world. I enjoyed all of the activities we had in the afternoon, especially when we went to the beach since the sea was beautiful, as well as all of the night activities. The classes were very instructive and I learnt a lot without getting bored. The only thing I did not like was the fact that we could not have the keys to our rooms.
