The school is located in the modern capital of Gran Canaria – Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. This location is perfect if you want to experience the authentic Canarian lifestyle and escape the tourist crowds in other spots of the island. The building is in a quiet street in the heart of the old town of Triana, right near the Central Bus Station San Telmo, which allows an easy transport communication to all parts of the city and the island. The key monuments of the old town, such as the Cathedral, the House of Christopher Columbus and the House of the famous Spanish writer Benito Pérez Galdós are all within walking distance from the school.

We are a small school with a very familiar and friendly atmosphere where everybody knows each other. Students appreciate this especially and are thankful for the care and attention we pay to all their needs.

Our school has normally several course participants from each age group: high school graduates (18-20), university students (20-30), professionals (30+, 40+, 50+) and young seniors (60+). The average age is of generally between 25 and 35 years' old. During the high season from September to March more and more of 40+, 50+, 60+ students book our courses.

We offer interesting cultural activities every week. These can take place during the week after classes or as day trips during the weekends.

Most of these activities are not included in the course price. We present the cultural program at the beginning of each course.

Students enroll for the activities and pay for them at the school office.

We teach Spanish exclusively in small groups of max. 8 students in April to October, and max. of 10 students between November and March.

For our general Spanish courses, the minimum age is of 16 years' old. We also accept students younger than 16 in case of school trips and Spanish courses for families.
