Set against a backdrop of the rocky Iberian mountains and sparkling Mediterranean Sea, Malaga is a stunning city in the south of Spain. Capital of the Costa del Sol region and birthplace of Pablo Picasso, Malaga is the perfect mix of historical monuments with trendy neighbourhoods.
The city’s architecture reveals a rich palette of influences, from the Gothic-Mudéjar Iglesia de los Mártires and the Moorish Alcazaba fortress to the French-inspired Palacio de la Tinta. The city boasts a variety of museums including the Centro de Arte Contemporaneo, Centre Pompidou and Museo Carmen Thyssen, so you’re never short of things to do.
Malaga also has a thriving art scene centred around the neighbourhood of Soho. Decorated by colourful street art, Soho is full of artsy cafés, innovative restaurants, and impressive installations.
An event not to miss is the Feria de Malaga, a week-long festival in August. The city comes alive to celebrate with concerts, funfairs, flamenco and of course lots of delicious food!
This course is designed for students who wish to learn or improve their Spanish, meet new people and have some free time to participate in Spanish culture and life in Malaga.
The course includes 20 lessons taught across Monday to Friday mornings.
In addition there is the option to add five or ten 1:1 lessons in the afternoon, where you will be able to consolidate or extend knowledge with a private tutor. You also have the option to upgrade your course to 30 group lessons.
You will be given a written assessment before you travel and an online speaking assessment before your course begins.
Once your level of Spanish and class have been established you will be invited to purchase the text for your lessons at a cost of approximately €30. This will be available from the school on your first day.
The school offers a range of activities during the week, as well as longer full day excursions at the weekends. These are available for a charge and you can book through reception during your stay. You will be introduced to the activities as part of your induction on your first day. These activities change weekly but include the following:
For those whose visit includes a Saturday there are excursions available to: Córdoba, Sevilla, Rona and Stenil and other local towns. These vary from week to week so those that stay for a longer period can take different excursions.
For students wanting to immerse themselves in the Spanish language and culture we recommend a stay in host accommodation with one of our carefully selected Spanish hosts. They not only introduce the Spanish way of life and help practise the Spanish language, but also give a taste of local and delicious regional specialities. Host accommodation is situated within 45 minutes’ journey time of the school. Half board accommodation is provided (breakfast & evening meal) from the Sunday before the course starts to the Saturday after it finishes. Subject to availability, an extra day on one end of the trip may be available on request to facilitate flight dates.
Students also have the option of staying in one of the school self-catering residences with Spanish and international students, or shared apartments with other international students. Single rooms are available.
