This is Don Quijote Academy’s main offering, providing learners with 20 lessons every week, each designed with the intention of getting students actively involved every step of the way. Living and studying in Barcelona will form an integral part of your Spanish immersion experience, and taking 20 hours of classes per week is a fantastic way of taking control of your Spanish language development while also leaving yourself free time.

The approach used in the classroom is geared towards communication skills, and for that reason, your teachers will encourage you to do a lot of speaking. This preference is supported by the course’s maximum class size of 12 participants, as it means you will find yourself in a situation where it’s easy to speak with your peers and teacher.

You will be placed in your Spanish level following an oral and written test that you will take the first day you arrive at the school.
