Tailor-made programmes for groups

Classroom-based tailor made courses for groups addressed to universities and educational agencies. Programmes are arranged according to the needs and objectives of each group, which can have a maximum of 15 students of the same language level. 

Our courses are adapted to each group, offering a wide range of timetables, possibility to choose the course calendar and total number of hours, and to obtain DELE/SIELE certification.

Tailor made programmes can be general language courses, adapted to the needs of the group, or specialised courses, such as:

  • Spanish for Business
  • Spanish for Tourism
  • Academic writing
  • Academic and professional oral presentations
  • Language strategies in Hispanic business environment
  • Spanish Communication skills 

Methodology

The language teaching method is based on a communicative approach and interactive activities to develop the four main skills: listening, speaking, reading and writing. We focus on individual assessment and learning strategies to help students continue studying tha language on their own and living the language outside the classroom. 

Virtual platform

We use the web-based learning management system Canvas, designed to extend learning beyond the classroom. The platform allows students to share classroom documents, submit assignments, contact the teacher and test their learning. 

Complementary services

  • Accommodation arranged by the university (Vila Universitària) 
  • Cultural visits
