Our history and philosophy

Hispania, escuela de español

Hispania's staff is always willing to help the students not only regarding academic necessities but also on their adjusting to Spanish life and culture. In Hispania, students will find a home where they can learn Spanish, learn about Spanish culture while making friends from around the world.

Our teachers are the key to our success. They are all native university graduates specialized in teaching Spanish as a foreign language, and have a personalized training in our teaching method. Their enthusiasm and passion for teaching their native language, combined with the latest teaching methods, result in dynamic, interactive, and funny classes. The results obtained by our students at the yearly D.E.L.E exams, reflect the excellent quality of our teaching: more than 90% of our students pass the exam.

Hispania’s method

In Hispania, escuela de español we use our own teaching method based on the conversation as the way to learning language skills, where the student has the leading role in the communication.

The philosophy of our method takes the error as the beginning of learning, creating a pleasant atmosphere which encourages the students to participate in the classroom without fear of making mistakes.

Teachers are key to developing our method. With their professionalism and effort, we create “a la carte” courses. Our classes are weekly designed depending on the number of students attending the classes, so that all classes are profitable to each student, rather than following a manual or a specific textbook. The coordinated work of the teachers, and the fact that we always work with small groups of students, enables an evaluation of the student's progression in class, so it is not necessary to perform frequently written examinations to determine the changes in the students' levels.

Each class is designed so that the student reaches a linguistic objective according to his or her level. Thus, every class has a beginning and an end, so that all students make the most of all classes and so that those who attend classes fewer days per week don't get lost. Since the learning pace of each student is different, each student will change levels individually. In this way, students can learn Spanish “at their own pace”, and won't have to keep pace with the rest of the students.

Our teaching method allows maximum flexibility for students, who can stop their classes if they wish, change their schedules or cancel some classes, since they can always recover missed classes and will always make a class of their level to reach a new linguistic objective.

Courses for passing the university entrance exam in Spain (PAU)

Every year there are more and more students and agencies that recommend our school for the preparation of the Official Spanish University Entrance Exam, called SELECTIVIDAD. Our teachers are very carefully chosen. They all have to be University Degree teachers in each subject and have knowledge of Spanish as a foreign language. On the other hand, since we have a long tradition in teaching foreign students, we would never put together Spanish-speaking students with foreigners, because the learning process of specific subjects is different as we focus also on the written expression.

The SELECTIVIDAD exam consists of two phases:

The general phase is compulsory and includes 4 subjects:

Philological-linguistic comment of a text.History of Spain,20th and 21st Centuries.Second language: English.A third subject to choose by the student depending on their University Degree choice.

The specific phase is only for raising marks. If this exam is failed, then the mark does not affect, it only affects positively, so it is only for raising a mark. We advise taking this phase only when the student has a minimum  level of high B2 in Spanish language.

The course can be prepared for taking the General phase, if the student doesn't want to take the Specific phase, or for preparing the General and Specific phases. For students who have " credencial", it is possible as well doing only the "Fase Específica" in order to increase the mark and having more possibilities for choosing thier desired University Study.

The advantage of preparing the SELECTIVIDAD with us is that our school is specialized in teaching foreigners without knowledge of the Spanish language, so our classes have a double content: on the one hand the learning of the subject matter, and on the other hand, the perfect learning of our language. That is why our teachers are experts in both subjects. Furthermore, our groups are small, never more that 10 people in class.

The course also includes personalized Educational Consulting Service for each student. With this service, each student receives detailed information about studies and universities, doubts are clarified, they are advised on the best options, and Enrolment management help at the chosen university.
The Spanish Course for Entering University meets the requirements so that those non-EU students can apply for the Student Visa. Our school provides all the  information and documents needed for carrying out the procedure for the application for the Student Visa.

Big disappointment

If you're not planing on studying 5 days a week this school is not for you. They pretend to have a system that matches your level with the suitable classes/ levels but it's just a false promise. I could only study twice a week 2 hours each time and was in the same classes with students who learn 5 days a week for 4 hours each day. So after being tired from catching up I needed to reschedule new classes which is time consuming and frustrating, not to mention that the classes are placed in 3 different buildings and you always have to figure out where today's class is and it's simply super annoying. Also the staffs communication is really really bad and you easily get the feeling nobody cares about you after taking the full fees, all at once upon registration. A real disappointment to say the least and a warning to you guys.

Fantastic school!!

Before I came to Spain I read a lot of reviews about different Spanish schools. All the reviews about Hispania were so good, that’s why I decided to go for this school. And the best part is, that they were all right! I really had a great time in Hispania, I learnt so much in my time there!

All the teachers are really friendly and respectful. When I came to Hispania, I couldn’t speak a word of Spanish but my progress was fast! So every day I could move to another lesson with a different level. On every level they use different teaching techniques so it was always a challenge to go to school. I never had the feeling that going to school could be fun, but now I know it can!!

I really enjoyed all the activities what Hispania, escuela de espanol is offering. It was a really good way to know the city and the Spanish culture! During the classes and activities, I met a lot of people from all over the world and with different ages, I made a lot of new interesting friends!

I can really recommend this school to everyone!
