Spanish Language Courses in Spain and Ecuador

Spanish Intensive Course

Long & Short-term courses

The Intensive Course is a core Spanish language course, which develops and improves your listening, speaking, reading and writing skills. You learn Spanish grammar and practise it in real-life communicative situations, using newspapers, magazines, audio-visual materials and course books.

The Intensive Course is offered at all seven levels. The maximum class size varies from school to school - please check the individual destination pages in this brochure and separate dates and price list for details.

Short Courses

Short Intensive Courses from one to ten weeks start almost every Monday of the year in all five Sampere schools.

Long-Term Courses (Spain only)

The " Español para Siempre" courses are the perfect choice for students who want to make significant and lasting progress by studying Spanish in Spain for a longer period. The attractively priced courses can be booked for 10 to 48 weeks. They start on the first Monday of every month, with some additional fixed starting dates. Long-term courses provide an excellent combination of language and cultural immersion through class tuition and day-to-day living in Spain.

You can divide your course between Sampere schools and experience life in different regions of Spain. The Long-term Intensive Course programme includes DELE examination preparation in the period before each of the two the examination dates.
