Why learn Spanish in Valencia?

Daily life in Valencia has an irresistible rhythm. Start your day with a breakfast of horchata and fartons at the historic Mercado Central, one of Europe's largest covered markets. After your classes, you can cycle with your fellow students through the Turia park - a green lung that winds like a ribbon through the city. This former riverbed is now a 9-kilometer-long park where locals and students gather to exercise, picnic, or simply relax.

What is the cost of living and studying in Valencia?

A Spanish language course in Valencia is already possible from €150 per week, where you attend about 20 lessons. With a longer stay, the price per week drops significantly - ideal if you want to stay longer. In terms of living costs, Valencia is also a very affordable choice. For about €10-15, you can enjoy a nice lunch in a local restaurant, and for €2.50, you can have a café con leche on a sunny terrace. A single bus ride within the city costs €1.50, and for a room in a shared apartment, you pay between €150 and €300 per week. A beer at the pub costs you about €3.

How long to study Spanish in Valencia?

The ideal study duration completely depends on your level and goal. To advance one language level (for example, from A1 to A2), you typically need 4 to 6 weeks with an intensive course of 20 lessons per week. However, even after 1 or 2 weeks of studying, you'll already dare to speak more Spanish. Do you want to speak Spanish fluently? Then plan for at least 12 weeks. Most schools in Valencia are flexible - you can start from just 1 week and extend your stay if you like it. The lessons are usually from Monday to Friday in the morning, allowing you to explore Valencia or do your homework in the afternoon. Convenient: you can start year-round, with new courses beginning every Monday.

Do you want to learn Spanish in the city of paella, orange trees, and the famous Turia park? Valencia welcomes you all year round with its Mediterranean charm. With no less than 300 days of sunshine a year, you can never really plan wrong here!

In the summer months of July and August, the city is full of energy. With temperatures around 30 degrees, it's wonderfully warm, perfect if you want to combine your Spanish lessons with long days on the city beach of La Malvarrosa. After your lesson, you can easily hop on a bike through the green Turia park towards the beach, where you can cool off in the azure blue Mediterranean Sea. Or enjoy a refreshing horchata - Valencia's famous refreshing drink - on one of the cozy terraces in the old town.

Looking for a quieter period? In spring and autumn, Valencia is at its most beautiful. With pleasant temperatures between 20 and 25 degrees, you can wander for hours through the winding streets of the historic El Carmen district. Or visit the futuristic City of Arts and Sciences, without it getting too warm. This is also the perfect time to discover Valencia's culinary pride - taste the authentic paella valenciana on a sun-drenched terrace!

Even in winter, Valencia remains enchanting. With temperatures that rarely drop below 15 degrees and plenty of sunshine, it is an ideal destination to escape the Dutch winter. The orange trees are then full of fruit and the terraces remain open all year round. Extra advantage: during this period there are fewer tourists and you often find attractive prices for your language course.

Whether you come for the sun, the sea, the culture, or the world-famous paella - in Valencia you experience the real Spanish life. Between your lessons, you soak up the local atmosphere in the historic Mercado Central, walk past colorful street art in El Carmen, or enjoy tapas in one of the cozy bars. Here you effortlessly combine learning Spanish with experiencing the relaxed Mediterranean lifestyle!
