Course description

The Standard course offers students the perfect balance between language training and leisure time. A communicative approach developing fluency in speaking, listening, reading and writing ensures that the grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation components are applied to actual language use. Our teachers assess their students' learning needs and objectives on the first day, and then plan their lessons accordingly. In this way, our students are motivated to keep improving, while also having a good time! Minimum duration 2 weeks.

The four lessons that you will have each day are as follows:
• 1 lesson - grammar and general vocabulary exercises
• 1 lesson - conversation
• 2 lessons - reading, understanding texts, listening, writing

*There is a possibility of a textbook rental for €4/week. A €15 refundable deposit will be charged at the time of a rental.

"Sprachcaffe the Place to learn Spanish"

Sonja Petrick-Schmalbruch, student from Germany

I experienced a very professional backing from the Start!

In BCN I was in a class with 5 other students, a very open and nice group.

The school was very central in walking distance in a great area.
Also several working groups were offered during the week.
In the 14 ‚crash’ intensive course I had a great teacher, Victor.
Victor did have a very good study method to bring the language in my (our) minds, trying to make Spanish more familiar to us.

Thank you Victor for this great experience! In normal life I‘m trying to think Spanish!

"It was fun and I learned a lot"

Tianyi Xie, student from China

The classes were very fun, as the teacher was interacting well with us. The expeditions were also great, even though we had to spend a lot of time walking, which was tiring. Generally, it was a great time in the camp. The dorms were fine as well. A great camp.
