How the shifts work
The zigzag timetable: some groups study on Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings and Tuesday and Thursday afternoons; other groups do the reverse. The school sends your exact timetable on the Friday before the course starts.
Group size
Maximum 12 students, minimum 4. If a group has fewer than 4 students, the hours are halved but the price stays the same. It is a quality safeguard, not a way to save money.
Spanish is not only grammar
Practise Spanish beyond the classroom: conversation and cultural activities help you meet people and use the language in everyday situations.
