Course description

Sunshine, Sangria, Flamenco and tapas cuisine are all synonymous of Spain. Why not take home both the Spanish language and some Spanish culture so that you can feel like you are on holiday every day of the year. Spain is infamous for its tapas dishes which are served up alongside drinks in bars up and down the country. In this course, you can learn how to make some typical Spanish cuisine and even brush up on your Spanish language skills.

Some of the delicious delights you could be preparing on your course include: Sangria, tortilla de patatas (Spanish omelette)and many different tongue-tingling tapas, sauces, fish or meat dishes and not forgetting Paella, which you will be able to taste test afterwards!

"Unforgettable"

Aine Smith, student from Bermuda

The facility was very modern and always clean. The lounge was a great place for breaks because we all sat and talked, mostly in Spanish! The location was very convenient and easy to find. The teachers were pretty good and it was beneficial to speak in only Spanish; however, sometimes it was necessary to have a translation as it would have helped everyone in the class because we all spoke English (in particular, when to use the different tenses in the past). Also, if we were confused, the teachers would repeat themselves in the same way which obviously didn't help us to understand it. If we don't understand it the first time, how are we supposed to get it from the same exact explanation the second time? Also, I was disappointed with the host family because there was little space for us to put our stuff in, and when we asked for them to clear some drawers they were quite annoyed and only cleared out one for me and my roommate each. Also, I didn't learn Spanish from them because we didn't eat together or do anything together. The meals were very bland and very unhealthy. I moved to a residence which was much better; the owner was very kind, always understanding and if we needed any help she would help us. The room was cool and cleaned very regularly and the bathrooms were also always very clean. I went to Segovia and Avilla, and Toledo on two weekends with the school, and the tour guide was very easy to understand as she spoke slowly and repeated things in different ways so that we understood everything. We also saw a lot in such a little time without feeling rushed. I liked how the different schools mixed together as I made friends with so many people from other schools.

Overall, I loved my trip to Salamanca, especially because all of the staff at Enforex were very kind and always there to help and I learned a lot about the culture and the language.

Home stay with a single or double room and either half or full board is the primary housing option in Latin America and private rooms are always available. Our experience has shown that living with a host family is the best way to fully immerse yourself in the local culture, customs, and traditions of whichever country you choose.

Our host families vary from young families to one or two retired people, all Spanish speakers. All families have been carefully selected in order to ensure that your stay be as pleasant as possible, and in Latin America you’ll find that the families warmly welcome students as one of their own. It's important to remember that the standards of living in many Latin American countries are lower than what those of North America and Europe. The families belong to the middle class or higher in their countries, but this may mean a simpler way of life than what you're used to. We encourage students to keep an open mind and be willing to adapt to the local customs when necessary.

We will always try to accommodate students within 30 minutes from the Enforex School by public transportation. Traveling with a friend? No problem: you can request to be placed in the same house if you so desire.

Living with a host family has two major benefits. First, it's the best way to get to know Spanish culture and see what daily life is like for a native Spaniard. Secondly, our host families will speak to you in Spanish 100% of the time, helping you practice the skills you're working on in Spanish classes in an authentic context.

Our host families vary from young families to one or two retired people, all Spanish speakers and are carefully selected to ensure that your stay be as pleasant as possible. We do our best to find home stays that will treat you as part of the family.

We will always try to accommodate you within 20-30 minutes - on foot or via public transportation - from the Enforex school, even in big cities like Madrid and Barcelona. You may choose between a single or double room as well as no meals, half board (breakfast & dinner) or full board (all meals).

If you have any allergies, special dietary requirements, dislike of particular pets or any other special requests, just let us know in advance and we'll do our best to satisfy your needs.
