The Intensive Spanish courses are popular amongst students staying for a shorter period or for students who need to learn Spanish for future studies or professional use quickly.
Below you can find further information on the Intensive Spanish courses, for whom this type of course is most suitable and information on Intensive courses available throughout Spain.

The intensive courses are similar to the standard courses arranged by private language schools throughout Spain. However the Intensive Course offers at least 25 Spanish classes per week and also a number of free time activities outside class hours. These activities include from cultural activities like guided visits to museums to welcome parties and weekend excursions.
The average class also has less students compared to the standard course with around 4-10 students per group, which allows each teacher to give more personal attention to each student. Like in the standard courses the classes focus on grammar, vocabulary and understanding of the Spanish language and as, there are more hours per week, the student will have more time for optional subjects, presentations or more time to work on the most difficult parts of the grammar.

For students who are planning to study for less than 4 weeks (or who wish to progress in the language more rapidly) we can recommend an intensive course to improve your Spanish as much as possible during your time in Spain.

For students who are planning to study for more than 12 weeks or who don't like to study that much we can recommend the standard courses where you will have about 20 classes per week and therefore more free time available. (see Standard Spanish Courses for further information).
