Our teacher José Luis has been teaching Spanish as a foreign language for all levels over more than 20 years. He has worked at various schools and institutions recognized by the Spanish Instituto Cervantes.

Our programme «Spanish at a teacher’s home» combines a Spanish course with guided cultural activities and full board accommodation. The family offers excellent local cuisine with regional and organic products. Students will live in an independent and fully equipped apartment (with terrace and swimming pool). The family lives with their pets in La Zubia. The village is situated about 5 km from Granada, at the edge of the Sierra Nevada National Park.

Here are some images from our student Morgan Desmond from USA. He participated in the programme in January 2016:
