Carbon reduction

Your vacation will help support local people and conservation. We must also reduce CO₂. Learn about the CO₂ emissions of this vacation and how to reduce them.

Environment

We value our role within the community and regularly attend neighbourhood meeting where we help with decision making. We encourage all of our students who come to learn Spanish in Granada to use the local shops and stalls close to the school so that they can get a feel for the history and culture of the city and so that they can support local business.

All our teachers are employed from the local area and the accommodation provided, within walking distance from the school, is owned by local landlords or families. We ensure that the accommodation places our students in the center of the community and that they will play a part in typical Spanish life.

We do not charge for the organisation or administration of activities, students only have to pay the entrance fees when at the particular place of interest. Therefore the money from our students goes directly to local businesses, guides and the attractions here in Granada.

We work with charities that help teenagers and young immigrants who have recently arrived in Spain with basic or no knowledge of Spanish. We provide them with teaching materials and support to help these people with their Spanish studies. This is important for us as we can use our main forte to help those in need.

We have written a Code of Conduct for all of our students and teachers. They can refer to this during their stay with us and again when traveling in the future. The Code specifies how you can be responsible and environmentally sustainable. We believe that if our students do at least one thing that is included in the Code then we should make a difference.

Revise your Spanish before departure to get the most of your stay.

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?

The classes. My teachers had a great sense of humour and their conversational style of teaching really breathed life into the dryer grammatical topics, as well
as producing some more eclectic points of vocabulary along the way. The class size was approximately 10 people which meant you would receive feedback
from the teacher very frequently throughout the class. The learning environment was hardly something which one could recreate for themselves at home and provided an enormous boost to my overall proficiency in the language, so great value for money I'd say and very good fun too.

2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?

If you want to get in to see the Alhambra be sure to book well (possibly months) in advance.

3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?

It definitely benefited local business - so yes on that front.
I flew to Granada from London - less good for the environment.
Conservation - don't see how that applies here.

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?

The school arranged an afternoon at the Alhambra guided by one of the
teachers. Magical, great teachers, loved classes, learned a lot!

2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?

I booked a single room in an apartment and had whole apartment to myself as
no one else was staying there. Very basic and on 3rd floor with no elevator.
If you really want to enhance your class, I would also book private lesson.

3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?

Out to dinner, tapas so that supported local economy.

4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?

Very good teaching, classes. Had a great time and learned some Spanish.

Peggy! It's been a pleasure having you here.
Thank you so much for your review and for your suggestions, that always make us improve to offer better services to our students. Regarding the accommodation, you were the only one in your flat because you booked a private apartment, that's why. Maybe you didn't realize it while filling in the form! We also offer rooms in shared flat, this means that a student will share the accommodation with other people. So, next time you can choose "single room in a shared flat" if you prefer to live with other people.
Thank you for being part of our family and hope to see you soon!

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?

The joy of getting back into learning!

2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?

Do some research - we would have liked to visit The Alhambra while we were in Granada but found it was fully booked for the whole of our stay. Apparently this happens in the peak season - we did not realise that May was peak. Most important is to avoid the ticket office in the center of town, which charged one student Euros 45 (against normal entry of about Euros 14) for entry ...he did go with a guide but it did seem very expensive. Also, it was good to have done a little Spanish (I used DuoLingo online) before attending the course - that way you make a leap start!

3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?

Most definitely it benefited local people - the school was full of local teachers, we had coffee every day at a local bar to the school, we ate and drank out every day while we were in Granada. I'm not sure I can claim that we supported conservation!

4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?

Absolutely fantastic! I was thrilled to be learning again, met some great people, the teachers were so enthusiastic and made it a complete joy. I would definitely recommend the vacation to anyone thinking of picking up Spanish either as a beginner or as an improver. Go and you won't regret it!

Book more than 2 weeks of courses and stay with a local family.

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?

Stepping out on the terrace and facing the magnificence of the Al Hambra Palaces in the sunshine. It’s one of those wonderful places you spend your whole life gazing at in pictures, but when you see it for yourself it is far more than any picture can portray. Attending the school every morning gave structure to the week and the staff were most helpful in their advice, maps, directions and so on.

2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?

Granada is a special place. The scenery, the flamenco, the people, the general ambience and quiet confidence is wonderful.

3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?

Yes of course. We visited all the local restaurants, caught the local buses and bought food from the local markets. All the information is available in the school, with bus routes, and plans. In addition, the tourist information office is just in the main square, La Plaza Nueva, with lots more ideas and information. The staff were most helpful. They arrange activities every night and accompanied by one of the teachers it is a truly authentic experience.

4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?

A wonderful experience, which we are looking forward to repeating. There is no greater testimony. Our children went to the school for a week's course, just before GCSE and A level Spanish to improve their fluency. It was really beneficial and surprising how much you can improve in just one week of continuous dialogue.

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?

Finding out I was not too old to learn new tricks - beginning to learn a new language at 61 was very encouraging to continue the course as soon as I have available time.

2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?

Be brave and go for a long course (four weeks at least) to become fluent. I was just beginning to feel capable at the end of a week.

3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, and minimized impacts on the environment?

Yes, the school employed local well educated tutors, we visited local restaurants and historic sites, information was plentiful on the use of local transport etc to get there.

4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?

Excellent, the school and it's staff were well organised, encouraging and excellent value for money. The accommodation offered at the school site was basic but enjoyable for the company.
