STUDY ABROAD SPAIN - IMMERSION IN THE SPANISH LANGUAGE AND LIFE

The central idea of the TWU Group Programs in Spain (up to 20 students per group), which combines Spanish lessons with water sports and other activities, is the integration in the Spanish society for students.  With this objective we include, cooking courses, wine tasting, trips around the town, and conversational exchange with Spanish students.

Furthermore our organization has contacts with Schools of dancing, guitar teachers, Sports associations and many other cultural associations which allow us to provide an extensive itinerary and  information about additional activities requested by the students.

Study Abroad Spain. The Spanish lessons are given from Monday to Friday.  The classes consist of 3 hours a day distributed as follow:

• One hour of Grammar: Focused on the teaching of this subject from a communicative point view adapted to student's level.

• One hour of Conversation: Organized to teach the students to cope with real situations in Spanish life and to maintain different levels of conversation.

• One hour of Spanish Culture: the students can know different aspects of the rich Spanish Culture through the study of Spanish Cinema, Art, History, Literature and Music.

All the subjects are taught with a communicative and practical method so that the students can make use of an authentic program of integration in the Spanish society.

The courses are distributed into 3 levels: Initial, Intermediate and Advanced, according to each student's knowledge.

The teachers have College Degree in Spanish Philology,  having extensive experience in the teaching of Spanish as a foreign language at the High School and University levels.
