Student opinions about Be Canary School, Maspalomas (Gran Canaria)
Samir
45 years“The casual but very professional way of teaching Spanish to the students. The lessons in the small group and in the private class are very varied and the learned remains immediately available and applicable! The school's own teaching material and the structure of the lessons are just great. Too bad that we only had one week, we will gladly take another 2 weeks of lessons in the fall!”
Insider tips about what future students should not miss Definitely also book one-to-one lessons, it is worthwhile to deepen the language. The school also offers excursions, be sure to attend!

Quality of teaching / language progress: I used my iPad in the school so I did not buy the book we used and I thought I could finish my lessons at home in Iceland. But I can`t open it and use it.

Other comments The classrooms are very simply equipped. This is compensated for by the quality of the teaching with modern PowerPoint technology and, in my case, a really excellent teacher (Daniela). One problem is the on-site parking space situation; if you can, you should come on foot or by bike, bus or taxi.
