You’ll speak Spanish from the first lessons.

"The enthusiasm, experience and professionalism of our teachers is our guarantee. All have university qualifications to teach Spanish. All will help you learn the language in an enjoyable and effective way while you immerse yourself in an exciting new culture. You’ll learn Spanish by living Spanish – in our classrooms, in your activities and excursions, and in the streets of the city."

Julio Ramirez
Academic Director of the Mediterráneo Spanish Centre

 

Our teaching method is interactive – and proven

Mediterráneo Spanish Centre has developed an open, flexible and interactive method of teaching, drawing on our years of experience, our understanding of the cognitive process of language learning, and our continual attentiveness to the desires and interests of our students.

You’ll learn Spanish as you learnt your native language by practising it and through continuous communication. We adapt our method to meet both individual student needs and the demands of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages.

We strive to transform our classrooms into lively, interactive spaces providing the ideal elements for you to quickly attain your Spanish language goals.

To do this, we mix a variety of tasks and activities: communicative and interactive, grammatical and cultural. We will truly immerse you in the Spanish language and Hispanic culture! Always accompanied on activities in the exterior of agreement to your level.

 

You’ll study in small groups with personal attention

At Mediterráneo Spansih Centre, you’ll always be the center of attention. If you are following an Intensive or Super - Intensive course, you will never study in a group of more than eight students.

 

The right study level for you, based on a recognized framework


"Your teacher... friendly, enthusiastic and patient."

We offer 8 basic levels of Spanish teaching in accordance with the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages:
  • Beginners A1
    Develop ability and confidence in basic Spanish communication in familiar environments and interaction with native speakers in Hispanic countries
  • Beginners A2
    Develop the ability to maintain a simple conversation in familiar environments and daily situations, expressing ideas in the present, past and future tenses.
  • Intermediate B1 and B2
    Develop ability in communication and linguistic competency to engage in conversations on nonspecialist topics.
  • Advanced C1 and C2
    Gain the necessary linguistic skills to be able to effectively structure an oral or written discussion.
  • Superior D1
    Further knowledge of Hispanic language and culture.
  • Superior D2
    Eliminate any errors and differentiate between minor linguistic subtleties.

Our own published teaching materials

As a result of over 10 years’ experience, we have developed and produced our own text books and have more books in the pipeline. You’ll also work with fresh and continuously updated support materials, including press articles, advertisements, audiovisual materials, etc.


A flexible timetable during your course

We’ll expect you at school at nine o’clock on Monday morning – the first day of the course – to test your language level. If Monday coincides with a public holiday, we will start on Tuesday. If you are a complete beginner, you won’t have to take the placement test, but you will still need to arrive at the school at the same time to get your bearings and start learning as soon as possible.

You will have at least from two to six classes each day, with a half an hour break. Each class lasts for 50 minutes. They take place between 9 am and 8 pm. You may have classes in the morning or in the afternoon. Your schedule will depend on several elements (the current groups, your level, type of course, and so on) and will be decided once you have arrived. Though always we treat of that fundamentally the classes are in the morning and this way that you could have time free for our activities, etc...

 

A completion certificate to show off your accomplishments


"A test of everything you have learnt."

After completing the course you will receive a certificate for the whole course if you have attended at least 85% of the classes. This will record: the course you have taken, duration, objectives and level of Spanish, special subjects, additional courses and number of hours.

If you have attended less than 85% of your classes, the certificate will only record the actual number of classes (hours) you attended. For students from the United States, we give the assessment results according to the American grading system.
