"Exciting and interesting"

Ann Jakobsson, student from Sweden

The welcome meeting was nice and "welcoming"
As I had private lessons with Sara Cartas and we only met three times during my stay in Valencia I didn´t participate in other activities. But we had really fruitful discussions about grammar issues, we also talked about the climate changes and problems, similarities and differences in work, we also read and talked about interesting newspaper articles.

Sara was an inspiring and talented teacher.

Unfortunately, I couldn´t stay more than a week, far too short a time. I would have liked to stay a few more weeks.

Since I was there for such a short time I cannot give any comments on the premises, activities etc.
The reception staff was also nice and helpful.

And due to the short time I am not able to answer all the questions below.

"The course, the school, the teachers the directors, everything was amazing, I loved it!"

Mate Jenei, student from Austria

Do I want to join this course again? YES! Big yes! I felt very good these past four weeks. The lessons, the classes, my classmates and the teachers were amazing. I spent a great time in this school. The location and my accommodation was very cool. I've improved my Spanish, and now I have a very good foundation. They had activities everyday and I joined about 90% of it. Great! I have no negative comments, I really liked everything. Thanks a lot and see you soon.

"Fun way of learning Spanish, great teachers and classes, great activieties and making lots of new friends!"

Claire ten Hacken, student from Netherlands

I had enjoyed my time at Taronja.

The classes are good, if you are learning for fun its perfect however if you really want to improve your grammar the school is not a great fit as they focus more on pronunciation and talking then on your grammar.
I like that you have two different teachers per day and every week another however the level between teachers is big. I had great ones and less experienced ones.
The location of the school if perfect, easy accessible and really central, the building is not big however the classes are decorated nicely and are spacious enough for 8 to 10 students. I have been really happy with the air conditioning, therefore it was really comfortable to attend the classes.
Activities organized by the school were amazing! I attended a great amount of activities, it is a great way to get to know the other students and at the same time experience the local culture!

I would recommend the school to anyone, and would definitely go back if I have the opportunity.

"Absolutely Fabulous."

Marilyn Laidlaw, student from Canada

I am replying to this evaluation for both me and my husband George.

The school is extremely well run and organized. The teachers and staff go out of their way to make sure the students not only receive the best of instruction but that they also enjoy themselves and their stay in Valencia. We can't say enough about how wonderful our experience was.

The location of the school is perfect, central and with many cafes and shops nearby.

The apartment was great and very well located to the school and the main attractions of the city.

The only recommendation I might make is that the school's extra curricular activities include some earlier ones for retirees like us who avoid late evening outings. While I was there, the weekend outings were also geared to a much younger group, e.g., long bicycle outing, mountain climbing, and trips to other areas for fiestas. I would have liked weekend outings to other communities to tour the areas, see the sights along the way, dine and arrive home early evening.

My husband and I will remember our Taronja/Valencia stay as one of the highlights of our years together.

Marilyn and George Laidlaw
