However, please take in mind the following;
If you are the only student of your level, you will have you will have half of the classes hired in private class format, as long as this situation exists. Even in these two scenarios, you will be advantaged because as it’s only you and your teacher in the private lessons, your Spanish skills will improve quickly- and it’s cheaper as if you’d pay for private lessons.

In order to receive the certificate, it is necessary to have attended at least 75% of the classes and to have passed the final test with 60%. The certificate also states the following elements which are evaluated during the course and in the final test: assistance and participation, work and progress, written test (reading comprehension, vocabulary, grammatical structures) and oral test (oral expression, listening comprehension, oral interaction).
We aim to keep our classes to a minimum number and therefore, there will never be more than 8 people per class. However, in the low season, you can expect fewer, increasing the attention and personification in the class allowing you to take advantage of the teacher, in order to help your level increase rapidly.
There are some activities that free of charge, and others that have an extra cost like outings to Granada, Ronda etc.
You can contact the school administration in school working hours. (Monday to Friday from 10:00 – 14:00, and Monday to Thursday from 16:00 – 20:00) For emergencies outside this these hours (weekends) you will be given a mobile number to contact.
You can start your course whenever you arrive, it does not have to be Monday. However, this is when the course normally begins so you may miss out by not arriving at the start of the course. The price of the course is from Monday to Friday.
There is no specific deadline; however we do advise our students to book as soon as possible in order to assure the availability for the right course/accommodation.
