Positive aspects of school
"We felt welcome and started with a friendly and informal conversation. Good class size at a fairly similar level. Very friendly teachers. Most teachers were well prepared, structured and engaged. We made language progress which gave us the courage and opportunity to converse in the host family. Opportunity to participate in 2 interesting city walks."
Negative aspects
"Two hours of uninterrupted teaching is a lot if you want to concentrate optimally. The room lacked a seat so that not all students could sit facing the blackboard. The IT equipment caused problems in most lessons and one of the teachers had given up using it completely. The same teacher should have started the first lesson by introducing us to the lesson plan and the previous course with some of the class participants. The lessons consisted largely of (solitary) speech on various topics and very little conversation or learning of linguistic structures. Many vocabulary words were lost if we didn't ask for them to be written on the board. If the purpose of the lesson was primarily to practice listening, it met the requirement, but it seemed haphazard in many ways and we are concerned for the young students who are not getting optimal learning in these lessons. The teacher's personal phone calls during the lesson should be an exception."
Insider tips about what future students should not miss
"Ask for a briefing on teaching methods, how the course is structured and the purpose of each part of the course."

City/place
"We didn't use public transportation in the city, but it was difficult to find tickets for the train via the website. It turns out that there may be tickets available for purchase at the train station that you can't see on the website. We therefore had to take a costly detour when we booked tickets before departure."

Positive aspects of school
"People. Excellent teachers who, in addition, really like all their students. Kind landlord who always tried to help with everything. Nice and interesting colleagues. Plus the magical place that is the old part of Salamanca."
Negative aspects
"Lessons of 110 minutes each with no break, no possibility to move around - tiring for me. In the first week the classroom too cramped for a group of 10. When I waited for a colleague outside - I had to stand because there is nowhere to sit (there are tables, but they belong to a restaurant). Likewise inside - when I wanted to check something using my smartphone, I had to find a temporarily free room because there is nowhere to sit outside the café. The sightseeing tour of Salamanca I was keen to do was on the first day, when I still couldn't get to school by bus and didn't have the energy to walk the distance a third time in a day. I'm also not sure that accommodating a complete beginner with someone who only spoke Spanish was a good solution - there were problems with the simplest things and stress on both sides."

"Worthwhile. Lots of experiences, nice Spanish language, magical Salamanca, lots of human kindness."
City/place
"For me, Salamanca is fascinating because of the architecture and art, the living and present history everywhere, the tradition and the university (academic) atmosphere. Plus a lot of different events. So on a day-to-day basis, I think it's a place where you can live an easy, relaxed and enjoyable life."
Quality of teaching / language progress
"I was a beginner, but I was assigned to a group that had already gone through 50-60 pages of the textbook. Fortunately, I was not expected to be at the same level. The group was initially large (too large?) - 10 people; cramped in the room, difficult to open the windows as the cold air was too close. Most of the participants were 50+, and all friendly."

"Owner cordial and helpful, great kitchen, taking into account all requests for food and drink. Room very good."

"My teachers (Ana Isabel and Ana Cris) were fantastic - very friendly and professional, and I learned a lot. The location of the school is excellent - in the university district a short walk from the cathedral and Plaza Mayor. The onsite cafeteria serves the best coffee in Salamanca!"
Negative aspects
"I signed up for a 50+ course but because I was the only mature student at my level (B2) I was put in a class with the younger students doing the "Intensive 20" course, which cost some 350 euros less than the 50+ course. Most of them had already been there for several weeks so we started part way through a unit in the middle of the text book - it was definitely not tailored to the over 50 group. There were no weekend excursions and the "cultural activities" - guided walks and wine and ham tastings - were available to the other students either free or for a small fee. If I had known this, I could have saved a lot of money."

Quality of teaching / language progress
"Week 1: Due to my knowledge of Portuguese, the first week as a complete beginner in Spanish was very easy. Challenging, however, were the conversation lessons, which were the most interesting part of the week for me.
Week 2: I was upgraded after the first week and jumped from lesson 2 to 7 in level A1. This was then also the week that was more interesting for me and then also challenged me."
Accommodation
"The hostess was a lovely person who clearly cares about her guests. You have to like her. However, for a student who comes without any knowledge of Spanish, she can be overwhelming as she speaks quickly and a lot and it is difficult to get a word in. As there were 2 of us, we shared a small bathroom between the 3 of us. However, we were able to arrange ourselves well and had no problems as a result. Unfortunately, the beds were a disaster. We usually only spent the night in the flat and also ate outside most of the time, which was also somewhat due to the distance. One should also not assume breakfast and food as we know it from our own habits. The portions were very small, we would certainly have got more if we had asked."

"Suggestion for improvement: A corresponding Spanish/German booklet would have been very important for me to learn vocabulary. Especially as a real beginner, that makes learning easier and much more effective. For each chapter of the textbook, the vocabulary including the conjugations should have been prepared in this way. When I (62 years) learned English at school, it was a matter of course !!!!"

"I really think that everyone at Don Quijote had the best intentions to make the classes fun, enjoyable as well as informative. But because DQ has such a big reputation, I would have liked classes to be more balanced because of the reasons I’ve mentioned above. The difference between conversation classes and semi-private classes should be more obvious. Semi-private classes should be utilised as classes where students can ask about certain subjects they wanna know more about."
Quality of teaching / language progress
"I did a one week 30 hour intensive course. All of the teachers were really lovely and friendly. But in the morning one of my classes was taught by a temporary teacher because of the arrival of a big group of Norwegian students. I felt his lessons had very little structure with a lot of talking. Also I was supposed to be having one conversation class and one semi private class in the afternoon. But because there were 2 other students from a different level in the same class, semi private classes turned into a conversation class as well. So after the first two hours, the rest of the day was just about conversation. Because of that, I felt conversation classes and the actual lessons were not balanced that well."
Accommodation
"My host family was super nice, very friendly and caring. The landlady was encouraging me to speak more and correcting me whenever I made a mistake. My only reservation was although I mentioned that I’m a non smoker when i filled the online form, the school placed me with a smoker. I wasn’t very happy about that."

Insider tips about what future students should not miss
"The longer stay the better. I was only there for two weeks, but still one day in the country is like a month of studying back home. Important! - I went alone, and there was not a single Polish person in the whole school, so I spent 2 weeks speaking only in Spanish! I was afraid of a large group, but despite the 8 people in some classes I was still on high speed learning - it was great. I decided on the most intensive version - 6 hours a day (from 9 to 15 with a total of 30 minutes breaks). The fifth and sixth lessons are conversations in two different groups, the last one being practically alone with the teacher (!) due to lack of interest. With a short course such number of hours makes sense, but with a longer one it may be exhausting, so I do not recommend it. Well, you have to set yourself up for learning, doing tasks, etc ... It is worth taking advantage of the offer of excursions, or go alone on the weekend. I was on a trip in the Sierra de Francia and alone in Segovia and Avila. Unforgettable impressions."

"I have no comparison, because this is my first course, but it was perfect. I've heard a lot of good things about this school and I fully agree with them. Not to mention Salamanca itself - adorable! The only thing that did not suit me was the accommodation - a dark interior apartment with smokers. If I ever come back here, I'll look for something myself."

Accommodation
"Dull and cold facilities, poor breakfast, smelly rooms, the sheets were only changed once in 2 weeks, the towels only after 10 days when I finally had enough and put them on the floor. The bed was not made. Nice access to fridge and microwave, spacious rooms (although mine had a window facing a staircase). A lot of noise from the school in the same building."

Quality of teaching / language progress
"We had two excellent teachers, Louisa and Belén. The 50+ Course was very good because all attendees were of similar age and also interests. We had many joint excursions, drinks and dinners."
Accommodation
"My "mother" is renting out three rooms. My room was very small and it was not comfortable to do homework in the room. The television in the living-dining room was on most of the time. However, Isabelle was very nice and caring."
