School description

Spark Spanish is a friendly, family-run language school in the beautiful town of El Puerto de Santa María, on the south-west coast of Andalucía. With its beautiful beaches and rich history, it is a perfect location to ensure a great Spanish learning experience.

We run a range of adult courses in summer, July to September. With the option of our General Course of 20 hours per week or an Intensive option with additional 5 one to one classes in the afternoons. Our innovative teaching methodologies, combined with our great native teachers and small class sizes (4-6 on average), our students always surpass their expectations with how much they learn.

Spark students have various accommodation options, from our own cultural residence on the first floor of the Spark Spanish Academy, to host families or students finding their own in a hotel or house nearby. Our most popular option is the residence, due to its convenient location and friendly atmosphere. Our self-catering residence boasts a large, bright kitchen/dining room, single or double bedrooms, free WiFi throughout, laundry facilities, huge roof terrace and more.

Every week we organise a cultural events programme for staff and students which serve as great opportunities for practicing Spanish and exploring the area.

"Language course via Zoom was a wonderfull and successfull experience"

Helene, student from Austria

In the beginning I did not know how the language class will be when held via Zoom. But it worked out so great that I booked another course right after I finished my first course. Doing the classes via Zoom enables me to attend this second course and further improving my language skills. Furthermore, I can do the classes whereever I want / can. This local flexibility is great.
