Spanish courses in Marbella (España)

Language classes around palm trees

Marbella, due to its surroundings has a specific micro-climate. Throughout the year the temperature is moderate, there are no harsh winters nor scorching summers. You can walk for miles on sandy beaches, relax in the shade of lush green palm trees, take a swim in the Mediterranean, or stroll the narrow cobbled streets of the Old Town. Here the sun illuminates the parks, fountains and squares all year round, and you will also notice sweet-smelling orange trees on every corner.

  LANGUAGE SCHOOL IN MARBELLA

Our Spanish school in Marbella is small, located in a 3-story building. It is a modern and spacious place, constructed around open air patios where students can sit in common areas, enjoy time with friends and city weather all year round. The international atmosphere of the centre of Marbella in which the school is located is conducive to linguistic and cultural exchange. It is also a good location due to bus connections and a 5-minute walk from the beach and the seaside promenade. Each of the 17 classrooms is air-conditioned and full of audio-visual equipment.

Language courses in Marbella start with a language test that you take on the first day. The result will allow to adjust your language level, so that you can participate in classes with people at your own level. At the end of a course you will receive a free certificate.

  SPANISH COURSES IN MARBELLA

Language courses abroad are by far the most effective form of learning a language. Why? For a simple reason – we learn through complete immersion in this language. The priority is to build students’ self-confidence in communicating in Spanish, which is why the teachers put special emphasis on speaking during classes. Discussions, pair work, role-play and language games are a regular part of the activities that allow you to improve your fluency, accent and enrich your vocabulary.

It is worth emphasizing that language courses abroad are not intended only for young people or students, you can come to learn Spanish at any age. It is very important that these types of language courses are available at all levels. This way, you can start learning a new language or improve it at advanced levels, up to and including C2.
