Intensive Spanish 20
Intensive Spanish is the most popular course on offer from Expanish at their Barcelona location. Your Spanish skill development will evolve thanks to 20 hours per week of carefully designed lesson plans that focus on all four of the main areas of learning a second language: reading, writing, speaking and listening.
Your classes throughout this course will be small, meaning that you and your teacher will get to know each other more, and thus work effectively together to move you towards your Spanish language goals. You will use a course book as a means of having a clear and well-structured curriculum, and your experienced and passionate teachers will also provide you and your peers with engaging and stimulating activities to supplement this, which might include video clips, debates, and so on.

Intensive Course
The 20-hour-per-week Intensive Spanish course follows the tried and tested model of working on the main pillars of language learning: grammar & vocabulary, speaking, listening, and writing.
This school believes that particular importance should be given to communication skills when studying Spanish, as a student’s confidence in their abilities is a large factor in how much they will use and therefore expand their skills.
There are groups at all official ability levels (from A1 to C2), and you will be assigned to a group that most closely corresponds with where your Spanish language skills currently are (this can be changed later if necessary).
Most of your classes will take place in the classroom, but you can also expect to be taken out as a group around Barcelona from time to time, as a way of making the learning experience more fun and dynamic.
