Studying Spanish in Spain

Studying Spanish in Spain is the most effective and motivating way of learning the language. Attending classes as part of a degree course alongside Spanish students and combining them with Spanish language courses provide an ideal complement for students keen to gain an in-depth knowledge of the society and culture. Indeed, experts believe that students can learn as much in 2-4 weeks in Spain as in one year of Spanish classes abroad.

To learn Spanish in Spain, you should contact:

The Spanish university where you plan to study. Most universities offer Spanish courses for foreigners, summer courses, intensive or extensive courses, Spanish for business or preparatory courses for the DELE (the “Diploma de Español como Lengua Extranjera” described below). As well as specific language courses, many centres also offer courses in Spanish culture.
A private language school. There are language schools over the country that offer classes in Spanish at all levels.
