What our students said about Granada
I was hesitant to go because I saw on the news that the temperature was up to 38 °C. However, it was more comfortable than in other cities, as the temperature drops enough in the mornings and evenings to be cool enough to wear a long-sleeved shirt.
Japan
Great city, many things to do. Natural places to go, lot of opportunities to explore historical sites, and simply a very authentic city and chill to live in. I could easily do everything I normally did
Germany
I have been visiting Granada since 1995 and it is one of my favourite cities. It is wonderful, exciting, so much to do and very beautiful in parts. People are friendly and straight talking, love it.

What school directors said about Granada
With its world-famous Alhambra, rich culture and lively nightlife, it is the ideal place for both studying and taking a holiday.
Granada is a cultural town: a Moorish city surrounded by historic buildings; it is a place for the Flamenco finders and lovers, and student-based city.
It's an amazing city with centuries of history and a multicultural atmosphere, also reflected in its different areas. Close to mountains and the sea.
Granada is the most beautiful city in Spain, full of life and joy, monuments and nature, friendly and happy people.

The location is excellent and during the break I could get coffee and sandwiches nearby. Anyway, the place is fine. I also really like the times: not too early (10 a.m.) so that I could make it a little later in the evening. In the afternoon the class stopped at 1.30 pm and that gave enough time to do everything.
I've enjoyed it!

This was the fourth Spanish language school I enrolled in, in the past year. It was BY FAR, the best learning experience. While no workbooks are given out (or to buy), the worksheets were highly personalized to the group as well as individual needs.
My teacher, Laura, was excellent: motivating, able to present content in a way that was fun, succinct (clearly expressed) and pertinent (relevant). I was placed in the correct level and improved a lot during my two weeks of classes.
School extracurricular activities were outstanding, varied and very well attended.
Rating this school as the best of the four language schools I’ve attended in Andalusia.
Highly recommend, it gets an A+ from me.
I’ll be back. :)
