My personal number one school in Spain so far. Very effective learning! Don't miss group courses in combination with private lessons.

The adult classes were fine, but the camp was not beneficial for English speaking students. There were less than 12 students learning Spanish and about 120 learning English, so everything was geared toward those learning English. I would not send my children back to the camp.

de manier van les geven. We hebben nu 1x in de week een bandje geluisterd. De rest van de tijd maakten we gebruik van stencils. Ik zou meer afwisseling willen in materiaal gebruik.
