On your first course day we will meet at 09:30 on our roof terrace where you will receive a brief introduction to our school and Malaga, providing information about our personal, location and activities in the respective week.
After the introduction, students who start in a beginner course with no previous knowledge will be introduced to their teachers and immediately start with their course. Everyone else will take a written and oral exam of about 45 minutes to determine their level and then be grouped into courses according to the result. |
|
 |
Should you discover that the level determined on the first day does not reflect your knowledge do not hesitate to ask us to be placed into another group.
It is also possible to attend different levels in grammar and conversation.
At the end of your course you will receive our certificate stating the length and level of your course. |
| For those students who need credits together with an attendance record we also provide a special certificate at the end of the course. In these cases please inform us before the start of your course, we will then keep an attendance record and you will also have to pass an exam at the end of your course. |

|
|
The key to progressive and effective learning with long lasting results is the principle of communication.
From the very first day we put great emphasis on speaking freely in class. Students will learn how to use vocabulary and expressions in everyday situations.
Individual preferences of each student will also be taken into account if possible. |
 |
|
We have developed and are consistently updating our method over the years, which has proven to be very effective. We transform standard learning as quickly as possible into a spontaneous and creative learning experience.
One aspect of communication is the wish to be involved in the experiences of others and this desire is the motivation for success. In teaching, the direct method is used, this means that Spanish is the language of instruction and the use of other languages is avoided as much as possible. Vocabulary and grammar are taught in context. Summaries of grammar and written or oral exercises are provided in our schoolbooks, which were designed by our teachers.
Much emphasis is put on the speaking ability of our students. Students will have to prepare small oral lectures and presentations to put up for group discussion. In addition audio and video equipment, songs, newspapers, magazines and language games are used to incorporate the many different ways a language can be used. |
