The teachers are very qualified and especially flexible. In the beginning, the course was too difficult for me but they found a great solution, so I was very happy again in the class. The location and equipment of the school/premises leave a lot to be desired, parking in particular is a horror, perhaps one should try to rent parking spaces for students in the free spaces on the lower floors. But the competence and nature and personality of all teachers definitely make up for that. Since I live here in winter, I save myself another review.

The school is to small. So I had to take part in a group group which was to difficult for me.
Accommodation
It was to expensive for a small room without even a table and a chair and without breakfast.

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.

As a pure beginner, it was difficult to understand what was required. Some previous knowledge is very helpful.

The excellently organized course trip to the almond blossom was a great experience at a reasonable price.
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.

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!
Other comments
The team should continue like this! The motivated, cordial and competent dealing with the students is simply great! You can tell that every teacher loves his job!
