Course description

The One to One 20 program is 20 hours of private lessons each week, a full 4 hours per day. Lessons are held in the afternoons between 2:30pm and 6:30pm in general, but occasionally there is availability for alternative schedules. The benefit to individual lessons is that the teacher can cater content to the student's interests and needs. For example, the class can focus on conversation rather than grammar if the student wants to improve their communication skills.

"Very good experience"

Kilian Haeuser, student from Germany

I booked a Spanish course for four days, from 26. till 30. december, 2023, in Malaga, Andalucia, Spain.
It is a really modern school, the staff and the teachers are friendly, open and heartful. The lessons have been very effective - I could improve very well my Spanish in just four days, felt myself more and more sure in conversation and writing.
I can recommend this course for everyone, who wants to improve his abilities in a foreign language in a short time.
