Tía Tula, Colegio de Español - Salamanca
Courses / Programs
Tía Tula is a mid-sized Spanish language school situated in an unbeatable location in the middle of the pedestrionized and historic center of Salamanca - the City of Spanish - bustling with student and tourist activity, surrounded by the main monuments of the city.

Our classrooms have the charm of the classic European style: spacious, outward facing and light, with French windows and balconies with views of the monumental centre and antique wooden floors, harmoniously combined with the most modern audio visual and technical infrastructure (internet connection and wifi included) and air conditioning.

Tía Tula is focused on people - adults or teenagers. It offers an efficient way to learn the language with the best teachers and specialists alongside friendly and personalized treatment.

Our first concern is our students: we bend over backwards to provide them with whatever they need every day in order to submerge them in the language and culture of the country, coming from a balanced combination of academic teaching and extra curricular activities. Our best recommendation: the satisfaction of the students who visit us year on year and often repeat the experience the following year.
Our Spanish courses are offered at 6 distinct levels: A1 (Beginner), A2 (Basic), B1 (Intermediate), B2 (Advanced), C1 (Superior) and C2 (Perfecting).

- Intensive Spanish Language Course
- Intensive Spanish Language Course + Conversation
- Intensive Spanish Language Course + Culture and Civilization
- DELE Exam Preparation
- Spanish for Business
- Formative Courses for Teachers of Spanish
- A-Level Spanish Exam Course
- Elective complementary courses on different aspects of Spanish language / culture.
El Rincón del Tándem - Spanish Courses in Valencia & Online
Courses / Programs
El Rincón del Tándem is a Spanish school, recognized as an Instituto Cervantes Accredited Centre. The school is based in Ruzafa, a multicultural neighbourhood of Valencia, at only 10 minutes walking distance from Plaza del Ayuntamiento.

El Rincón del Tándem stems from the idea to provide personalized Spanish courses, aimed both at those people who want to learn Spanish from scratch and those who want to improve their previous knowledge of the language.

The school provides group courses (Intensive, Standard, Part-time, etc.) as well as private lessons.  Besides, the school organizes social and cultural activities where students can practice the language in informal contexts, discover the city, learn about arts and culture, get familiar with local traditions, etc.

Our classrooms are mixed-age and our student groups are small (from 4 to 8 students per group). That allows us to provide a more personalized teaching and to boost a closer relation between students and teachers.

All our teachers are native-speaking Spanish teachers and have been trained to teach Spanish as a foreign language. The school methodology has a communicative, interactive and dynamic approach and is mainly based on practicing the language inside and outside the classroom. After a previous study and practice in the classroom, the students put their knowledge into practice, in everyday life situations and contexts, interacting with local people and becoming familiar with different accents and expressions.

- Standard Course: 15 hours/week – 3-hour class per day, from Monday to Friday
