Barcelona is a wonderful location in which to learn Spanish, rich in cultural heritage, lying on the warm shores of the Mediterranean. Students attending Spanish courses at our school in Barcelona can walk to Plaza Cataluña in just a few minutes, as our school is located in the very centre of the city. Learning Spanish in Barcelona, students enjoy the twin advantages of studying in a coastal city with excellent beaches and a marvelous Mediterranean climate, whilst at the same time being able to explore all that a city like Barcelona has to offer.
