School

Our partner school is housed in an historic building located in the centre of Valencia, just moments from the “Plaza de la Reina”. It possesses four large, air-conditioned classrooms, and you will have free access to the Internet and library (books and DVDs), so that you can better discover Spain and its language. A large kitchen provides you with a place to relax between classes, to have your lunch and to practise Spanish with the other international students.

Accommodation

Host Family
Living with a host family is without doubt the best form of accommodation for acquiring linguistic skills in conjunction with your lessons. What’s more, students can experience life with the local people and their customs. The families are located about 30 minutes from the school. You will have your own room with half-board or breakfast only. Sheets and towels are provided and you will receive your own house keys so that you can be totally independent.

Shared Apartments
A very popular form of accommodation in Spain, you will share an apartment with three or four other international students. Located about 30 minutes from the school, you will have a single or double room and share the common rooms and daily life with your flat mates. This type of accommodation is an excellent opportunity to experience the atmosphere and life of Valencia with new friends.

Leisure

Would you like to combine water sports (diving, water-skiing, sailing, etc), open-air sports (golf, hiking, horse-riding or tennis), and long hours of sun bathing on endless sandy beaches? To taste a traditional Valencian paella before plunging into a lively nightlife which rarely finishes before sunrise? If the answer is yes, then Valencia is the place for your Spanish studies! It offers all the convenience of a modern regional capital, as well as a rich and varied culture: “land of flowers”, Valencia is still imbued with the history of the Cid.
