Sono stata due settimane a Valencia presso la scuola Españole' per frequentare un corso di spagnolo. Posso solo comunicare un esperienza più che positiva . La conoscenza del'idioma è migliorata significativamente e adesso ne ho una buona conoscenza. Gli insegnanti sono molto professionali e gentili . L' accoglienza in famiglia è stata molto positiva e le chiacchierate serali con le mie ospiti hanno contribuito nell' apprendimento della lingua spagnola . La mia stanza pulita e il cibo senz' altro di buona qualità. Una esperienza senz' altro positiva . E poi la città di Valencia è bellissima come tutta la Spagna. Spero di tornare presto a visitarla

The school is absolutely wonderful! The teachers are incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and supportive, and the organization of the activities is impeccable. The learning materials are also of excellent quality.

The classes are small, which makes it much easier to participate and receive individual attention. All four skills are well covered — listening, speaking, writing, and reading — creating a very well-rounded learning experience.

I was genuinely impressed by how much my Spanish improved in just two weeks. I feel much more confident and can clearly see my progress.

Ah, the school’s location is also fantastic and makes the whole experience even better.
I highly recommend Espanole to anyone looking to improve their Spanish in a welcoming, well-organized, and effective learning environment!

We had a great time at Españolé! We were here for two weeks. Before, we did not speak spanish at all - it was so helpful to start here, where we learned a lot of basics and could practice in the afternoons! Our teachers Clara & Iris were awesome, they spoke spanish all throughout the lessons, which took some getting used to, but helped us understand a lot quicker in the end! We even did some excursions, played games, studied listening, reading, and speaking; it was really interactive, diverse and fun! The other students were super nice as well. We also joined in some
of the evening activities, like city tours (they were completely in spanish, so not very beginner friendly, unfortunately), yoga in the park or a flamenco show. All really fun, you can tell they put a lot of care and thought into the lessons and the programme! Very very nice staff! All in all we had a great time and would definitely recommend!
