Questions and answers about Linguaschools

• Will a certificate of attendance be issued at the end of the course?
  “At the end of the course, the students will receive the certificate end of the course if they have 80% attendance.”

• I am looking for a way to get my language level officially recognised. Now of course there is DELE, but my institution also gave two other options:
  
  
  
  (b) Certificado oficial de nivel avanzado (nivel B2) de español para extranjeros, expedido conforme a lo previsto en el artículo 61 de la Ley Orgánica 2/2006, de 3 de mayo, de Educación, por las Escuelas Oficiales de Idiomas.
  
  
  
  (c) Certificado de Aptitud en español para extranjeros expedido por las Escuelas Oficiales de Idiomas.
  
  
  
  Do you know what kind of certificates these are and the procedure to obtain them?
  “The DELE exam is the official exam taken through the Instituto Cervantes. Students have to apply for this exam themselves through the Cervantes website. It can be taken in Spain and around the world. It is an internationally recognised exam that costs between 130-200 euros depending on the level. It usually takes about 2-3 months to get the results for this exam and the registration period is usually 6-8 weeks before the exam date.
  
  
  
  For the second option, I am not sure if we would count or not - there are schools called 'Escuela Oficial de Idiomas' where you can take a course and therefore receive a certificate at the end. We are an Instituto Cervantes-approved school, but we are not the Escuela Oficial de Idiomas. So in this case, students should double-check whether a B2 certificate from a Cervantes-accredited private language school would suffice.”

• Is it possible to book the homestay without meals (room only)?

• Does this school offer activities?
  “Linguaschools offers weekly activities and weekend excursions, all year round. Activities vary per week and are communicated to you at the school. Some activities are free of charge. For other activities a small fee is charged to cover costs such as transport, museum entrance, etc. The activities and excursions on our website are merely an indication of the things we regularly offer. In most schools we create the activity programme only one week in advance, so we cannot say with certainty what activities will be running when you are at the school. Activities might require a minimum number of students.”

• I'm currently in the group course Level A2.2. Is there a final test at the end of the course?
  “At the end of each level, the student takes a short exam (written + oral). The whole group takes the exam, so we recommend doing it as it shows the student how far they have come etc.

FAQ about Linguaschools, Barcelona

• I'm a complete beginner, and I know nothing about Spanish. I'm even scared to think about the effect of immersion in a foreign communication environment. How can I learn a foreign language like this while in another country?
  “You need to attend group classes and conversation clubs as often as possible! The more classes you attend, the more actively you participate, and the faster you will develop the skill of correct language proficiency!”

• I would like to join an intensive 20 course, but I can only join in the morning class. However, I read that the schedule is made on the first day. Would it be possible to guarantee the morning class before I sign up?
  “Classes can be in the mornings or afternoons as it depends on the number of groups, level of the student etc.
  
  If a student has a very concrete reason why they can only attend morning or afternoon classes; for example they are working or they are studying, they can send us a document to prove this (from the employer or the university for example) and then we can give that student priority over others.
  
  But I cannot say 100% without fail they will have morning classes.”

  Janine, Administration from Linguaschools - Aug 01, 2023
• When should I book leisure programmes and excursions from the school?
  “The list of current leisure programmes for the week is announced every Monday morning. You will be given a detailed description of each activity and told by what day and time you need to sign up. You can book and pay for the activities at the school's secretariat. Some excursions require a minimum number of participants and will be finalised once there is a group.”

  Maksym Sterpul, Language Travel Consultant from LanguageCourse.Net - Jul 03, 2023
• I can only follow lessons with a morning schedule. How can I know if it will be confirmed before registering?
  “The timetable of each course is always noted in the comments inside the course section.
  If you select a course where there are morning/afternoon time slots, that is because there are classes on both slots.
  If the timetable of the course you want does not suit your needs, let us know as sometimes we can organised personalised packages!”

  Antonio, Area Manager Italian from Linguaschools - Aug 03, 2022
• Are there any classes on the bank holiday?
