The courses
At S.L.C. we believe that real learning is not simply confined to memorising a series of facts isolated from their context and the surrounding world. Our Spanish school wishes to immerse students in the Spanish life style and culture, through the most modern and effective teaching techniques (using role-plays, rhythm exercises, word games, etc.). At the same time, we prepare students for real intercultural communication. We offer the following wide range of Spanish language programmes that emphasise the participant's ability to communicate.
- All year round general courses
- D.E.L.E. Preparation
- Long duration
- Job & travel 2007
- Academic year
- Spanish + golf
- One to one
- Spanish for business
- Tailor made programmes for open or closed groups

D.E.L.E. Preparation
D.E.L.E. (Diploma of Spanish as a Foreign Language) is the only official certificate of Spanish for foreign students, which is issued by the "Instituto Cervantes". This diploma is particularly important for all those students who wish to study at Spanish universities or who would like to work in a Spanish speaking country. The specific aim of this course is to prepare students to pass the exam on one of its three levels:
1) "Certificado Inicial": First certificate in Spanish language.
2) "Diploma Básico": Basic Spanish diploma.
3) "Diploma Superior": Advanced Spanish diploma.
We offer two different types of DELE preparation courses focussed on comprehension, speaking, reading, writing and listening skills:
INTENSIVE DELE: it consists of 10 lessons in group complemented by 5 individual lessons related to the specific study of the DELE.
SUPER INTENSIVE DELE: it consists of 20 lessons in group complemented by 10 individual lessons devoted to the specific study of the DELE.
The examinations are held twice a year, in May and November. For further information on the DELE, please contact our head office or consult the Instituto Cervantes.
Long duration
The only difference between the preceding general Spanish programmes and the long duration courses is the amount of time dedicated to study: a minimum duration of 8 consecutive weeks or more. In this way, students can deeply improve their knowledge of the Spanish language as well as have the opportunity to become familiar with the Spanish life style, customs and culture.
We do highly recommend all the students attending long duration courses to undertake a DELE preparation course at the end of the programme as a complementary part of their studies.
Job & travel 2007
The Job & travel Program takes place in the southern Spain, Andalucía, Costa del Sol. Andalucia is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Spain. The visitors come from all the World and make Andalucia an International destinations, receiving people from the rest of Spain, France, Germany, USA, Canada, Australia, England, Scandinavia, and so many more places!

For more information, contact us.
Academic year
Through our experience in Spanish language courses for foreigners, we believe that the recommendable minimum stay in Spain is 9 months (36 weeks). For this reason we have carefully designed this special programme. Students not only will have more confidence in the language skills, but instead of having a feeling of living like a Spaniard, being completely immersed in the Spanish culture and life style of the locals as well. We cannot make the DELE exam compulsory. We do, however, strongly advise our students to round off their academic year programme with the official DELE exam.
Spanish + golf
If you are interested in undertaking a semi-intensive course of Spanish together with an exclusive golf course, we can design the very best programme. Please contact us for more details.
One to one
The aim of this programme is to offer a personalised method of teaching, which is tailor made for the specific needs of a student. Classes are private and the student can choose their own lesson time and schedule (from Monday to Friday and from 10.00 a.m. to 20.00 p.m).
This course is designed for students who require an intensive Spanish programme within a short time period. There is individualised study of grammar, conversation, listening, reading, writing and vocabulary, as well as any area of specific interest to the student (business, Spanish history, art, literature, etc).
Spanish for business
This course is designed for students, who have already reached a good command of the language (i.e. they can express themselves clearly and easily in every day situations). It is devised to suit students and business professionals who want to improve their general Spanish skills in relation to particular business topics.
There are 20 lessons per week scheduled as follows:
10 Spanish lessons in group devoted to the general study of the Spanish language and culture.
10 Spanish individual lessons related to the specific study of business terminology such as commercial correspondence, dictation tasks, preparation for written and oral summaries, systematic treatment of punctuation and consolidation and practice of structures, etc. All of them focused on a functional language development in the field of study chosen (Hospitality, Banking, Marketing & sales, P.R., etc).
Tailor made programmes for open or closed groups
These are specially designed for groups of at least 8 students who wish to participate in a custom Spanish course according to their preferences and needs. A group leader or/and teacher must accompany them (1 free place is offered every 8 students).
The group selects the course contents, the number of Spanish lessons they would like to attend (a minimum of 10 lessons per week) plus the different types of cultural activities, excursions, lodging and transfers if required. We establish two types of groups:
Open Group: All students participating in this group do not have the same level of Spanish. As a result, their language sessions are taught separately, but they receive their cultural classes and leisure activities within the rest of the students. This kind of grouping is only available for students taking any of our general Spanish courses (maximum of 8 students per classroom).
Closed Group: All students participating in this group have the same level of Spanish, so they are placed in the full course together, within the same classroom (maximum 12 students per class).
They receive their cultural classes and enjoy the leisure activities within the same group.
