Student comments about "Intensive Course" at Speak
Katrin
"Small group, it was ideal for me"
Special note for 2025 holiday season: If you plan to take a course during the high season months of April, June, July or August 2025 we urgently advise you to book as early as possible. In 2024 many schools were fully booked during the holidays, and the situation is unlikely to be different for 2025 due to a current shortage of teachers, which affects most schools.

“The three-week language course exceeded my expectations. I learnt a lot, not only about Spanish but also about Mendoza and the culture in Argentina. I also liked the fact that we had several different teachers and were able to get to know something new and a different teaching style with each one. The teachers were very committed and always responded to our wishes and really wanted us to understand everything. The classes were very small, which was ideal for learning. In addition to the school, many excursions were offered and the teachers gave tips for activities in the area. All the staff, including the boss and secretaries, were very friendly.”
“Everything perfect!”
