General Spanish

The don Quijote schools in Spain and Latin America provide you with a wide range of general Spanish courses to suit your needs. To get the most out of your Spanish learning experience, our programme of courses lets YOU choose the courses that best fits YOUR schedule: you decide the amount of time each day (in hours) you want to attend classes as well as the length of time (in weeks) you want your courses to last.

By following a structured methodology developed by our own teachers, don Quijote courses make Spanish learning easy regardless of your skill level. By using our method, you'll start  speaking Spanish from day one and you and your classmates can practise speaking Spanish with each other in your full immersion classes. At the end of class, you'll be able to communicate and have the opportunity to put your recently acquired skills to use by chatting with native speakers of any Spanish or Latin American city. Shop, eat out at restaurants, go out with friends and speak with your host family - all in Spanish!

one to one tuition

    If you don't have much time and wish to make the most of it, you can learn at your own pace  with a personalized course. This means that neither you nor the teacher need to follow the pace and interests of your fellow students, as in any other group course. You can also choose a mixed option: group class on an Intensive course + individual classes.

    We will offer you advice throughout the whole of your course. Firstly, we will analyze your individual goals and then we will create a personalized programme adapted to your needs in terms of content, timetable and additional activities such as company visits, cultural tours and excursions.

    This programme is offered in all don Quijote schools at all levels. You can also request information on specific content and vocabulary you wish to learn, such as literature, business, or  other subjects.

    You can choose the number of classes you wish to take or the number of course packages offered for any of our don Quijote schools. A special price is also available if students of the same level study together.

spanish talk

    Finding the opportunity to practise your Spanish in real life situations is not always so easy. Chatting with friends in your local tapas bar may solve part of the problem, but it's not always enough.

    If you are looking for dedicated Spanish conversation practice, your best bet is Spanish Talk at don Quijote. You will practise speaking various conversational topics for 2 hours a day, helping you towards that much sought-after fluency in social situations.

    Two hours a day of group conversation classes are usually in the afternoon, but can often be arranged with certain flexibility. So Spanish Talk can be perfect if you are combining your Spanish classes with a part time job or other commitments.

    This course is perfect for:

    • Erasmus or Socrates students wishing to improve their Spanish communication skills.
    • Foreign citizens living in Spain who do not have enough time to attend a full immersion programme.
    • Anyone wanting to improve their conversation and comprehension skills in Spanish

spanish for life

Any Spanish course taken in a native speaking country is going to be constructive, regardless of its duration. However, the more weeks you spend in the country the easier it will be to immerse yourself in the daily life of its people as you live among them. You will see and understand much more, which will help you to speak Spanish like a native.

Make the most of your time by doing something different. You will succeed in gaining a mastery of the second most important language in the world, which will help you gain greater success in the various official Spanish examinations. With this mastery under your belt, you will improve your work and professional prospects.

Make Spanish or Mexican friends 'for life' which will provide you with a link to the Spanish language 'for life'. Furthermore, this course provides personal added value given that the experience of being far from home will help you to see things from a new and wider perspective. Your time abroad will never seem long enough!

groups/study travel

don Quijote creates tailor-made courses at a favourable price for groups of people who have similar interests and course objectives.

We define a group as 8 or more students (young people or adults) with the same level of Spanish, who book, travel and arrive together. This course format is specially designed for schools, universities, companies, associations, etc.

As this is a tailor-made programme, you have a say in its design. It may be a programme solely made up of Spanish classes or a Spanish class plus cultural and/or leisure programme. Our only requirement is that you attend at least 2 hours of classes daily, from Monday to Friday, and for at least one week.

You will be in expert hands from the moment you arrive. If you wish, we can also provide a group coordinator to attend to your needs at all times!
