Our Malaga summer program is on a campus-like setting, where our partner school provides 25 modern and well-equipped classrooms, comfortable residence accommodation with single or shared rooms, a restaurant-cafeteria, 30-seat cinema, dance studio, pool and sun terraces. The campus is a 15-minute walk to sandy beaches, cafes and restaurants and a 15-minute bus ride to downtown Malaga. The school offers a truly premium language immersion experience in one of the most culturally rich regions of Spain!

The program has been designed specifically for 16-19 year olds and offers 15 lessons per week of intensive Spanish instruction taught in the late afternoon.

Daytime activities include visits to the Picasso Museum, waterparks, city tours, museum visits and beach sports.

Tarragona, Barcelona (15-17 years)

The Tarragona summer course for teens is designed to ensure that students enjoy their Spanish classes as much as they enjoy the rest of the program. Classroom activities are varied and involve tasks or games that make the learning process interesting and fun! The aim of the course is to develop the students' language skills in all areas, but the emphasis is on developing speaking and comprehension skills. To ensure that students get the most out of their visits to places in and around Tarragona, some class time is devoted to project work related to the social program. Classes will take place in either the morning or the afternoon.

The course includes a very full program of excursions and other activities with all costs covered by the course fee. Each week there is a full-day excursion to places of interest such as Barcelona or Port Aventura. There are also many half-day excursions to Roman ruins, waterparks, local beaches and famous monuments. In addition to this, there are daily sports and leisure activities and evening activities to keep you entertained and provide many opportunities to socialize with your new friends from around the world. The activities program will take place in either the morning or the afternoon depending on your class schedule.
