Description
|
Mornings:
|
Classes are held from 9 am to 1 pm in our school. Our classes are taught entirely in Spanish and cover all 4 skills (listening, speaking, reading and writing). They are well structured and balanced and students work through personalised projects which provide them with the necessary tools to get the best out of their afternoon and free time activities. This practical approach means that our students make full use of what they have learnt from the very first day. Students return to their host families for lunch. |
| Afternoons: |
Organised activities (accompanied by a teacher at all times) from Monday to Friday.
3 cultural days in Valencia (including Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias, a tour of the old town, different museums, boat trips in the Albufera lake, etc.).
2 leisure days including different music or sporting activities. |
Weekends:
|
Students spend the whole weekend with their host families so that they can experience real Spanish life and practice their Spanish in authentic situations. |
Accommodation
|
To ensure that our students enjoy their stay with us and take full advantage of their time in Spain, we consider homestay accommodation to be a fundamental part of the experience. It is ideal for total immersion in the Spanish language, lifestyle, culture and cuisine. Living with a host family means experiencing a new city like a local, rather than a visitor and is by far the best way to learn about life in the host country, helping students to lose their inhibitions and make an effort to communicate with their host family.
To guarantee the most immersive experience possible, there will only be ONE student in each host family. Our host families are all carefully selected by us and live in the same neighbourhood as our school. As we personally organize and manage the homestay accommodation and the classes, we are in constant contact with the students to answer any doubts they may have.
|
| Bedroom: |
All students will be provided with their own bedroom with a wardrobe and desk where they can do their coursework. |
| Full board: |
(breakfast, lunch + dinner) . Students will be provided with a packed lunch from Monday to Friday and the rest of the meals will be with the host family. |
| Students must contact their Spanish host at least 2 weeks before departure to: |
|
– introduce themselves
– provide arrival details
– accept the conditions of their stay |
