"Outstanding Experience"

Jasmine Irving, student from Hungary

Language Surfing specializes in small groups or one-on-one sessions, with learning taking place in a variety of locations (universities, monuments, museums, cafes, etc.) around Barcelona. I took a one week course, with a four hour session every day, and ended up by chance one-on-one with one teacher on Monday, Wednesday and Friday and the other on Tuesday and Thursday. The teachers were excellent, providing technical feedback while proving to be a fountain of knowledge about Barcelona and its culture. I came home every day physically exhausted (from walking considerable distances around the city) and mentally drained (from keeping a conversation going for four hours in Spanish), but it was totally worthwhile.

One teacher had a personal emergency one day and had to cancel, but Language Surfing stepped in. They would have replaced it with another session if we were in Barcelona even one extra day, but when we couldn’t stay, they offered two online music and culture sessions instead. These were excellent as well.

I would strongly recommend Language Surfing to anyone looking to increase their confidence in their verbal skills and to heighten their awareness of the culture of Barcelona.

"Makes it fun to learn spanish faster than traditional spanish courses"

Hanne Olsen

Language school with really skilled teachers, who make my language course fun and personal. I have so much fun, even when I struggle with the grammar and vocabulary!

Teaching is unconventional, inspiring and motivating. I love that I am both learning grammar and expanding my vocabulary with focus on the subjects, that interest me. And I love, that a huge part of the classes takes place on the streets, at museums and other places, that I like in Barcelona. That makes the classes more relevant, funny and motivating.

The highly skilled teachers, Martyna and Rebeca, encourage me to speak as much Spanish as possible, even though my vocabulary is still limited. It has made me more brave and less focused on the fear of failing.

I learn more spanish at Language Surfing, than I have done in any other language school, because the teachers makes it so personal and funny. And you choose yourself how much homework you want.

The school is located at a very central part of Barcelona, so it is easy to visit all the city's exciting places while learning languages.

Language Surfing has a brilliant concept, engaged and specialized teachers, and I have only positive things to say about the school. If you are tired of conventional classes and books, you should try it!

School location

Language Surfing is located in the "Eixample" neighborhood in the heart of the city centre. It is close to Plaza España and Sants train station and never more than a short walk away from the major attractions in Barcelona such as Pl. Cataluña or Las Ramblas. Our facilities include free WI-FI, CDs, books, magazines, self-study materials and coffee. However, our classes take place not only in the classroom but also outdoors, while exploring Barcelona, visiting places where the language is 'alive', looking for interaction with locals and discovering the coolest corners that are not on guide books.
