They organized lots of activities to keep you busy and to get to know the other students. A social activity almost every night. For example: paella night, beach party, windsurfing, beer + tapas night, cooking class. It was great. They really offer more than just Spanish lessons. Besides that, everybody in the school was really friendly (teachers, staff, the other students) and everything was well-organized.

The social activities were very good and the staff at the school always encouraged me to get involved with what was going on. It wasn't too big and there was a very friendly atmosphere.

Go to the social events, maybe not all of them but the ones you are interested in. It provides a good opportunity for meeting new people.

The accommodation was a big disappointment. The internet did not work throughout my entire 8 week stay, the TV did not work and many of the lights did not work. What made it worse was that the landlord never did anything about it despite promising to on many occasions. I felt I could have learnt more if the lessons had translated some English into Spanish or vice-versa. Sometimes it was hard to keep up with the teaching because of this.

The Teachers

This school is a really value for the money. They have many more good activities than other schools. I attended a lot and it really makes a difference. The "intercambios" are fun and very useful for making local friends as well.

City of Arts and Science, Ceramic Museum (not because of the Ceramics, but because of the decoration inside), IVAM (modern art), Biopark (best zoo I've ever seen), tapas bars, montaditos, park, museum of history of Valencia, flamenco in the Cafe del Duende... There is so much to see and do in this city.

The teachers teach in Spanish, not English.

If you are 16-17 years old I would not recommend this program because many of the people who attend are a lot older.

Not being able to meet people my age was the only downside.

The school had a really great atmosphere. The teachers were brilliant, the course was well structured and a great introduction to a language I had never done before!

Make the most of your time there, meet as many people as possible and participate in what you can. Just get involved and most importantly try to speak, which is very hard for beginners but pays off for sure. :)

Teachers. Activities.

Fallas, check holidays - no class, beach.

The teachers were great and the lessons also fun. The Superintensive was not really that useful. The first week was kind of boring, but the second much better. I would book intensive the next time and use the extra time to explore the city more. YOU SHOULD GO!

small groups, good teachers

not too many students who did´t say "rr" in same group

Course was better than my ealier one in Barcelona(other school)

teachers

really nice people

activities

Well equiped school, where you feel almost like at home.

meeting new people

I am really satisfied with your service. That is why I am booking my 5. course through LanguageCourse.net I always can find very good quality/price course here. Maaike (my contact) is really helpful and nice.

Friendly and helpful teachers

The only shame was that there were only 3 classes of different abilities, and my language level did not really fit into one of the 3 offered. But that's perhaps to be expected as November is not peak time! Still, it was fun and my Spanish improved a lot so was worthwhile!

artistic flair, the personalities of the teachers, the organisation, the secretary was always helpful and very friendly, the environment and the ambiente

they would miss something if they would not go to this school

I felt very good in this school and I can recommend it to everybody. Was really a nice experience for me :o)

the teachers are very very nice

go now!!!!!!

i'm very happy about my experience at Taronja scool!!!

teachers

aquarium

very small classes

small classes

Teachers were outstanding.

Make sure to go around the whole city not just the centre.

Great team working operating the school who made it a pleasant stay and learning experience. Thoroughly recommend!

go to the welcome parties

Active and involved profs who encourage the students to speak. Interactive, low frontal lessons. Very open, friendly and helpful dealings with the school staff. Despite emphasis on grammar, learning is easy and fun at this school.

The support and the leisure activities!

The Paella Party and the cooking class with Chef Nando!

organised trips and activities

Helpfulness and friendliness.

Plenty of social activities. All the teachers knew the students and their names.

I would have preferred to have a book, instead of single working sheets, I thought that was frustrating and confusing.

Afternoon activities

Greater accuracy on the average age of participants in the course

The social climate.

The atmostphere and teacher`s support.

Central location.

Book the most intensive course, reduced group and private lessons.

Teachers changed too much in just two weeks.However, this may have been due to high season. The school offers free wireless internet access but in most of the areas the signal is too weak.What a pity.

Many interesting activities, nice people & teachers

the familiar atmosphere

Paella party every monday

it was like a family

The parties in the evening and the cooking lesson

interior, nice people and very small.

Taronja School is a very small school. Because it's a small school the teachers and students are close. The quality of the lessons was good because mostly one to one contact. I had an excellent family. Valencia has been of course the most famous city because of the river park and Kalitrava buildings. But the city centre is more pleasant. And there is a lot of smog in the city centre due to trafic and Sahara sand. But the beach is wonderful.

the spanish classes

cooking class with Chef Nando, very funny.

Great team! Thanks to my wonderful teachers Adela and Carlos and the whole team for the nice time I had.

crazy and funny people teaching good spanish

activities like the "curso de cocina"

beautiful, beautiful, beautiful

the students and people from the school

the atmosphere of the old town

That was nice to meet happy people from different parts of Europe and speak, drink and eat with them under palm trees in such an interesting and pretty country like Spain. I am glad that the school organised tours and dinners.

good teachers, friendly and competent office personal

Visit to the Bodega

The teachers are competent and use various methods to keep the lessons interesting.The room in the apartment was well kept and clean. A pity I could only spend one week for the course.

people

it's a great experience

what a lovely school!!!
