Escuela Montalbán is an excellent language school with very competent and committed teachers and an excellent range of courses. I completed a two-week course ‘Cultura Al-Andalus’ here, consisting of an intensive language course (C1/C2) and a special programme on Moorish history, art and culture in Granada. I had very good lessons in the morning with Marisa and José and every afternoon a full and fascinating programme in the form of workshops and excursions with Francisco and the partners of the school (e.g. an Arabic wrting course or a cooking course). Concha, the hostess provided by the school, welcomed me as a friend, so I was able to speak Spanish every day in my accommodation. I learned a lot and had a lot of fun. Absolutely recommended!

I very much enjoyed my one week with Escuela Montalban. They were very friendly and encouraging from the beginning. I felt they placed me well in a class of students that had already been there a couple of months I had 90 minutes of grammar, 90 minutes of conversation, and one hour of cultural Spanish information it was a great way to break up each day, and not be too overwhelming. The professors were fun and engaging, helping each students feel more confident with their Spanish. I would recommend this school for any students. We ended up not having any extracurricular activities because other students were not as interested as I was mainly because they were college age and had other classes to study for. It would’ve been nice to have some extra activities for those of us in town and not taking out college courses . thank you for helping me find this placement.

Gabriele Leguina-Morel from the Viken Fylkeskommune in Oslo, Norway wrote us this regarding her trip with a secondary school group to Granada last October:
Hola Marga,
¡Ya han pasado casi dos semanas desde nuestra semana en Granada! ¡Qué rápido pasa el tiempo!
Estoy leyendo los textos de reflexión que han escrito los alumnos sobre su viaje de estudios y, cómo siempre, están muy contentos con la semana con vosotros. Sí que se lo han pasado muy bien en el tiempo libre, pero sobre todo hablan de lo bien que han estado en clase y en todas las actividades en común que hemos tenido.
Os quería dar las gracias por vuestra paciencia, flexibilidad y profesionalidad en todo lo que hacéis. Por algo vuelvo siempre con vosotros porque sé que puedo confiar 100 % en que los chicos van a tener lo mejor de lo mejor.
De nuevo: gracias!
Os deseo un muy buen fin de semana.
Un abrazo,
Gabriele.

Dominik Messer from the FOSBOS Amberg, Germany wrote us this regarding his trip with a secondary school group to Granada last October:
Hallo Marga
.... zunächst einmal herzlichen Dank für die abermals tolle Organisation. Die Fahrt wird gefühlt von Jahr zu Jahr immer noch besser, auch wenn es jedes Jahr kaum zu toppen scheint ? Die Schüler waren auf alle Fälle hin und weg - 4 von ihnen haben sich sogar als Erinnerung ein Tattoo stechen lassen (eine davon einen Granatapfel). Ich stelle mich nach der kulinarischen Genusswoche bei Antonia besser bis zur nächsten Spanienreise nicht auf die Waage ...

Our student Adama from Senegal has been studying Spanish for 6 months at our Spanish language school in Granada. We wish you good luck for the future!
In an interview he has described his experience in Granada and at our school. Check out his interview at our Escuela Montalbán YOUTUBE CHANNEL

Learn Spanish and enjoy cooking classes in Granada, Spain!
