What we like about the school
  • Every afternoon free organized leisure activities for adults and juniors
  • One of the oldest Spanish schools in Salamanca founded in 1973
  • Additional private lessons are cheaper than in most schools.

Location: Colegio de España is a Spanish language school that fits in with the theme of the city, with over 45 years of experience teaching the Spanish language, its history speaks for itself as a well-established language school. Furthermore, you will find the school nested in a 17th Century historical building just 2 minutes from the main Plaza Mayor, and 6 minutes from the Cathedral, so you can fully digest the wonders that Salamanca has to offer. The city has some traditional dishes, so come and find out what a hornazo or farnato tastes like.

School facilities: Whilst the shell of the school is a beautiful old traditional building inside is a different story with excellent facilities including a computer room, library, movie room, rooftop terrace, terrace, lounge and garden.

Course information: All the staff at Colegio de España are highly trained with degrees in Linguistics and Humanities and interests in other fields creating a wonderful selection of courses. Some of these courses include the standard general language courses, Spanish and business, exam preparation classes, family and junior programmes as well as a programme for seniors. The most notable course is the Hispanic classes that can be taken in a termly module or for a full year course. The content of the lessons push the students that step further in learning the Spanish language, by incorporating the culture of both Spain and the Hispanic countries to completely understand the language.

It's location is amazing. It's less than one minute to Plaza Mayor. Everyone is nice and helpful. The teachers are the best especially Carmen. Everything was fantastic and the best thing is the accent and the pronunciation. Not only in the school but, in the city.
Insider tip: Start in the beginning of every month. It's better since you start with everyone else.

The mobility of teaching methods, teachers' commitment - I had the teacher Nieves who always answered all the questions very emotionally and clearly. The school's staff is very friendly There are very good facilities for studying.

Insider tip: Even in advanced levels it is better to arrive when courses start. I arrived in the middle and it is not very comfortable.
Review details
Other comments 1. When I asked for more information and pictures of the optional accommodations the secretary sent me a link to a fancy and very expensive hotel instead. They didn't make much effort to help me find accommodation and in the end I booked through AIRBNB and not with the help of the school. 2. The school offers only notebooks with exercises and no other materials what-so-ever, no books, no internet site to practice or any other up-to-date method of teaching. When you study rules and don't have printed materials it is very problematic.

Während unseres 3-wöchigen Aufenthalts kamen nur 2 kunstgeschichtliche Führungen zustande - die aber sehr fundiert und lehrreich von der Direktorin selbst durchgeführt wurden! Hier hätten wir uns deutlich mehr und ein vielfältigeres Angebot gewünscht...

Location and coffee. The school is located in the old town. You can get a cup of coffee for only 0.6 euros at school.
Insider tip: If you want to study both English and Spanish, I recommend to study English first. Most of the students at school could speak English and English is used as the supporting language during a class. As I don't speak English, I had difficulties to keep up the class sometimes.

I would not recommend this home stay accommodation. The facilities were antiquated and not in the best condition. The bed was uncomfortable. The room was in a noisy location, making it very difficult to sleep at night. And the meals were not at all to my liking. Also, I had some stomach distress after meals. I think cooked food was left at room temperature too long.

Review details
Other comments The college and staff were really nice. The teaching was very good. I had two reservations about the set up. First, on the first day, another student and I were kept waiting for 30 minutes in a classroom on our own and did not know what was going on. We weren't given a proper learning needs assessment. Secondly, there was no activity programme operating. We were just given the option of a bring and share meal with the other students.

Questions and answers about Colegio de España

  • Homestay is the option that I recommend for a true, full-on immersion experience and if you include either full or half board, then you also get to keep practicing around the dinner table, learning much more about the culture and traditions than you would otherwise. This is indeed also recommended for mature students.

  • Collection is also possible on other days by prior arrangement.

  • The airport transfer usually takes place in a car (depending on the number of people travelling). The transfer takes between 2.5 and 3 hours from Madrid to Salamanca.

  • All meals are included, also afternoon activities are included (except for the one-day trip to La Alberca, which is optional). It is hard to say how much the student needs weekly, mainly that would be if she wants to have a drink during breaks or the afternoons or go shopping.
