The courses
- Pre-kids, Kids and Juniors standard courses begin midway through September.
- Standard courses for adults, the standard courses for teens (10-18 years) and the preparation courses begin in October.
- Intensive and semi-intensive courses begin every month throughout the year (depending on the availability in each centre).
- Conversation classes, private classes and online courses have no set start date; you choose when to start.
- ELE courses begin every Monday, with the exception of beginner courses, which begin on a particular Monday every month. You can check the ELE courses calendar here.
What difference is there between an intensive course and a standard course?
- Intensive courses last one month. Each class is 2.5 hours a day from Monday to Thursday, thus fostering a commitment to, and a greater understanding of, the language.
- Standard courses last the equivalent of a school year (October-June). Each class is 3 hours a week and helps students to achieve a greater understanding of the language.
How do I pay for the standard course?
- The most comfortable way is through a standing order so that you can avoid queues and needn’t worry about it again. However, you may also pay in cash, by card, by cheque, or with a bank transfer.
And the intensive course?
- On the first day of class, you pay the total course fee in cash, by card, or by cheque.
Do you work with native teachers?
- Yes.
What do I have to do sign up?
- To be able to sign up for any course you must first do a level test, unless your level is A1 (ABSOLUTE beginner).
- The level test consists of a written part on our website and an oral part lasting 5-10 minutes, so that we can best meet your needs and tell you the level which would be the most beneficial for you.
Can i sign myself up for any level?
- We sign you up depending on the assessment of the teacher and department of studies after both tests.
- To formalise your registration, you should pay the sign-up fee in any one of our centres, even if you choose to study in a different one. You can pay the fee in cash or by card (in person or by phone). If you take advantage of a promotion offering free registration, the sign-up fee will be a €80 deposit, WHICH WE WILL GIVE BACK TO YOU ONCE THE COURSE HAS ENDED.
- You don’t need to present any documentation to sign-up. You need only, if applicable, to prove that you meet the conditions necessary to take advantage of our discounts (Jove card, Club La Vanguardia card, etc.).
- You can sign up for a course at any time, even if it has already begun or began the previous month.
