SPANISH SCHOOL FACILITIES:
SA Malaga

The Spanish language school is situated in the district of Málaga called Pedregalejo less than 100 meters away from the beach. The Spanish school's four Andalusia villas have bright classrooms with a Mediterranean ´flare´. To enjoy the sun students go up to the rooftop terrace where there is also a terrific view of the mountains of Málaga. The Spanish school has many facilities such as TV and video rooms and a computer laboratory with e-mail service and Internet access. There is also a small cafeteria that serves coffee, tea, juices, ´bocadillos´, sandwiches and other snacks.

Program Methodology

The Spanish school's native-speaking teachers have a university degree in Spanish philology and have had professional teacher training. Their knowledge and experience in teaching foreign students guarantees top-quality training.

In teaching, the direct method is used. This means that Spanish is the language of instruction and the use of other languages is avoided as much as possible. The vocabulary and grammar are taught in context. Summaries of grammar and written or oral exercises are provided in schoolbooks, which are designed by the teachers.

Much emphasis is put on the speaking ability of the students. Students will have to prepare small oral lectures and presentations to hold group discussions. In addition audio and video equipment, songs, newspapers, magazines, and language games are used to incorporate the many different ways a language can be used.
