The entire teaching approach is incredibly rewarding - challenging enough for you to constantly learn and push yourself; relentlessly interactive; and, needless to say, super, super fun!!!
Españolé’s wider team is an awesome group of talented people, whose professionalism, dedication and constant energetic attitude (don’t know how you guys do it non-stop, honestly) create an absolutely lovely atmosphere around the school. Whether you’re there for a week, a month or, if you’re lucky, a year - they’ll always be there for you and they’ll go above and beyond to help you with anything you may need.

I recently attended Españolé IH Valencia for 5 Weeks and had an incredible experience. First I was worried that because I am in my late 20s I would feel uncomfortable. This was not the case, the classes are mixed and you will find at least 1 person in the class who is older than 30.

The school is located in a beautiful historic building, and the classrooms are modern and well air-conditioned. The quality of the Spanish classes was outstanding, with exceptional teachers like Javier R., Iris T. H., Rebecca R., and María José A. P. They not only provided excellent traditional lessons but also did a fantastic job of immersing us in Spanish culture.

For one week I stayed in a shared apartment and for four weeks with a wonderful host family who integrated me into their daily life, significantly boosting my language skills. If I needed assistance with administrative belongings or accommodation, Marta and Conny at the school reception were always there, ensuring that students were well taken care of.

The school activities were another highlight of my stay. Sofia did a fantastic job organizing trips to amazing places outside the city, such as Peñiscola, Calpe, Altea, and Montanejos. With Nicole I got to know la Ciudad de Valencia and some of its history and Street Art as well.

I can highly recommend Españolé IH Valencia. Many students I met were there for the second or third time, which underlines the quality of the school.
