Youth Group Programmes
There is no reason why adults should have all the fun! With the junior group programme, students under 18 have the opportunity to live in an immersion experience as well.
Description
If what you need is for your students to have maximum practice or just experience full immersion in a Spanish speaking environment with language lessons in the mornings and lots of fun-filled activities in the afternoons, we will organise a course with all your needs in mind. Minimum stay is one week. Please Contact Us for full course details and pricing.
You can choose a programme from 20 lessons (45 minutes per lesson) per week and even decide what you want your students to study: topics, level, grammar. There should be a minimum of 6 students per level.
