Learn Spanish in Valencia, Spain

The city of Valencia is located on the spectacular Mediterranean coast, at a distance of 300 Km from both Barcelona and Madrid. With a population of about 800,000 inhabitants, its beautiful streets and its unbeatable weather, together with vast cultural and leisure possibilities, Valencia promises an unforgettable experience for those who attend our Spanish courses here.

Frequently touted as the ‘New Barcelona', Spain's third largest metropolis is fast becoming one of the hottest tickets in the European city break market. A short hop from the resorts of the Costa Blanca to the south and serviced by a large number of low-cost airlines, its transformation is being led by two huge projects. The first is the architectural tour de force La Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias (The City of Arts and Sciences) housing an eclectic range of visitor attractions. The second is the America's Cup, the world's biggest and most prestigious yachting event, which takes places every four years and will be staged in and around Valencia over a period of three months in 2007.

Valencia's mild climate is another reason to come for a stay. Inviting and hospitable, ready to be enjoyed; whether traveling alone, as a family or in a crowd, you won't be disappointed if you choose Valencia as your next host destination.

Every Wednesday, we go to a cinema, Spanish theatre, or Spanish art exhibitions, etc, for a small additional cost. Our intention is to generate a friendly, participative atmosphere amongst the international students themselves, and between students and Spanish teachers. Of course we also go out at night a couple of times a week! Remember that studying Spanish with us in Valencia is more than learning Spanish; it's living it in order to understand it!
