Anyone been to a Spanish School in Spain
I'm totally thinking of hanging out in Spain for two weeks before term starts. Anyone experienced any Spanish schools (y lecciones de la salsa) in Spain? I was thinking somewhere in Sevilla, but open to suggestions.
gracias.

Yep I went to a nice school in Madrid for a few weeks a coupla years ago. Was good fun, doing philosophy in Spanish. Doing French in Spanish was quite a weird experience too :P. Think about Barcelona as well... that's a nice city. I don't really like Sevilla though so I'm kinda biased.
Like, totally, go and do it :P.

40 million Spaniards?
By 'spanish school' I meant kinda informal schools aimed at the turista....but as for locations - I was thinking Sevilla - good idea?
kitsune
Nice thread!!! Everything you want to know, JUST ASK!!! I went to a Spanish school until Year 11, then I've been in two British ones but in Spain... ask whatever you like!!! Dont go to Barcelona, lessons would be taught in Catalá, not Spanish!

Ahh, I suppose Granada will be accented as well.
Yeah I've done the Spanish school thing in Argentina (talk about accents) and Mexico. I found whether you speak English outside the class depends upon people's skills and where the people are from - like in Mexico there were quite a few Japanese so they knew Spanish far better than English!

Do you know that they are trying to make compulsory knowing Catalá to work in Catalunya??? I mean... Catalá Lang+Lit is compulsory at college... but... NOT BEEN ABLE TO HAVE A JOB DUE TO NOT KNOWING CATALÁ?! That's ridiculous... although it's happening right now although not officially...
btw how did you interview go? Did you like Queens'?

Sevillas a nice city, one thing though it gets very, very hot there - so make sure u take an ample supply of sun tan lotion with ya.
Um, i went to spanish school for 2 years in Valencia (among other places) which is a great city on the Costa del Sol. Its relatively unknown to foreigners, even though it is Spains 3rd largest city. May be an option?
I would definately recommend going to the Costa del Sol if you are going. Barcelona would probably be your best bet, very nice city and quite a lot of foreigners. Only thing I would mention about Barcelona is the people that live in that area of Spain can be quite hostile to outsiders.

If you go to Madrid DON'T take Spanish lessons at Club de Espanol / Club Ivy (it's the same thing). They've really fleeced me. I gave them 95 euros, they put me in completely the wrong level and when I asked to change they said there was nothing else when I was available.
I took four classes, learnt absolutely nothing and had 95 euros conned out of me.
CHOOSE YOUR SCHOOL CAREFULLY!!!
