“I did not regret it for a minute that I've chosen Picasso school for my autumn studies. My language teachers (and I had several of them in a week, because the school uses an interesting technique of switching the teachers for part of the time) were passionate, well educated and encouraging. The school location is also out of any complaints from my side: the very centre of the city, beautiful surroundings, old authentic building (especially for those who are looking for a sense of Spain in addition to the classes). Might be hot during summer periods, though this is not something the school can do. I had both group and individual classes the same week (so called intensive course) and for me it was the optimal combination.”

Quality of teaching / language progress: Special thanks to my main teachers Toni and Mara! It was a rare luck to get good companions and teachers at the same time.

“What we learnt grammatically/theoretically in the first two lessons, we immediately put into practice in the following two lessons, i.e. we spoke a lot and applied what we had learnt. The lessons were fun. I also liked the frequent change of teachers. The teachers were also very helpful and friendly”

Other comments In my opinion it was too much focus on grammar, it's hard to learn the language when it's almost only grammar and not that much speaking. Everything went too fast, I felt like I hardly learned any Spanish. A lot of focus on exercises and grammar. Was it all necessary? Also, after two weeks learning from one teacher the female teacher replacing him told us that what we've learned was wrong. So two teachers from the same school saying different things? Sometimes it felt like the teacher was just someone that the school picked up from the street because they needed some more teachers. Could've been better. Also the whole living situation could've been better from the school. It was so messy and so confusing this whole time. First three of us had to move so the school can keep people that are not even going to school and then no one in the school payed attention to my course extension and sent two new people in to our apartment saying that we had to move out. We've had a lot of problems that could've been better handled. I'm just thinking that if this was low season and still there was so many problems and mistakes, what is high season going to be like?

Insider tip: “You should attend the activities the school arranges to meet lots of new people. Flamenco night was so passionate and energetic I nearly cried. Beach volleyball was great fun and gave the opportunity again to meet new people. Salsa class was basic for me since I have been dancing for 2 years but I still attended just for fun. Maybe hire a scooter to get around. There are an abundance of scooters around the city. Museum Picasso is A MUST for all Art enthusiasts. Seek out the ice cream shops. I recommend the Malaga ice cream - Helartia, Plaza del Carbón, Nº23, 29015 Málaga, Spain.”
