School Blog

I think everybody is allowed to say his opinion, but I think it has to be the true. It`s true that the school don`t use books but I think that the reason is that they are working with a lot of books on the same time.

I stayed there for a lot of weeks in the last years and I think that it`s a very seriosly Spanish language school. The teachers are friendly and very open for criticism and for every kind of questions. In all my time which I spend in this school I never heard students talking negativ about the school. The metodology in this school maybe is different, but very effective. The question is you learned something in your Spanish course or not? Because maybe you are not confirm with this metodology but sometimes you have to addapt another one.
All in all I think it`s not fair to make a criticism about things which are not happening like this. There are a lot of people reading this terms and it`s bad for everybody who read this.

I think the school is excellent and everybody can feel welcome because they all are like a big family.
Samuel if you are really disappointed I think you can say this directly to the school and talk to them, but this way it`s not the right one because I think that most of the things that you are writing are not truthful.

They were fantastic guides who impressed us with their knowledge of Muslim history and art.

We are all pleased to welcome you again in Granada! So, if you are planning your trips for next year, here we are! Our dates and fees for 2012 are now available and you can download the programme here.

Ich war im Juli/August mit meinem Freund Paul zum Spanischkurs in Granada und in der Escuela Montalbán. Im Unterricht haben mir besonders die Kleingruppen, die Atmosphäre und die freundlichen Leute gefallen. Man kommt sehr schnell mit dem Lernen voran und lernt viel. Die Räume der Schule sind sehr schön. Es gibt sehr viele Aktivitäten, und mir haben besonders der Flamenco, die arabischen Bäder, die Alhambra und das Freilichtkino gefallen. Granada ist eine wunderschöne Stadt und für ein Wochenende lohnt es sich sehr ans Meer zu fahren. Auch mein Freund fand den Aufenthalt sehr schön.
