Spanish and horseback riding in Granada

Program Description

This Spanish course has 4classes a day to encourage students to add to their holidays with a language study. The course is recommended for those who wish to combine a relaxed language course with the study of Spanish culture in real life situations. Students who are interested in learning Spanish or improving their linguistic skills are welcome to join. Classes are conducted entirely in Spanish and are divided into two distinct parts. The first part deals with the Spanish language itself, explaining its grammatical structures and communicative functions. The second part contains specific topics in order to combine cultural themes with individual oral skills.

A written exam and a self-assessment oral test will be sent to along with the course documents in order to assess language level. Students must turn in supporting documents no later than one week before their classes begin. All Spanish courses start on Monday.
Starting dates for all levels in 2018: every Monday.

Spanish classes are capped at 8 students in each group and are held from Monday to Friday between 09.00 and 15.45 h. There are 4 Spanish lessons every day, lasting 45 minutes each. Students are placed into groups (A1/A2/B1/B2/C1/C2) based on outcomes of their placement exams. Our teachers are very skilled at evaluating students' language abilities.

The horseback riding programme takes place during 2 afternoons and in small groups.
