Even our students who have no previous experience of Spanish can enjoy these activities. Are there any medical restrictions on your extra-curricular activities? We don’t usually schedule activities that are strenuous or risky. However, it is the responsibility of every individual student to get information on each activity and decide if it is personally appropriate to his/her level of fitness. What kind of extra-curricular activities do you usually offer? There are three types of activities: cultural (e.g. visit Sagrada Familia temple), social (e.g. salsa classes) and Saturday away trips (e.g. to the historic seaside town of Sitges). The approximate cost is 6 to 8 euros for a 2,5 hour activity, or 40 euros for a day-trip. How are your students’ preferences evaluated? Our students are always welcome to express their opinions regarding the school, classes, accommodation and activities, using the welcome sheet or e-mail, or speaking directly to the corresponding person in charge. We also give them regular questionnaires to gauge their levels of satisfaction and constantly improve our systems. Will I be placed with students who have the same customs that I do?
