What our students say about Expanish

Expanish Spanish School Barcelona Testimonial Veronika Józan.png

I joined the intensive B1 course, where I had the chance to meet several great teachers with diverse attention to grammar, phonetics, speaking, writing etc. I can only recommend the school as everybody is very flexible and attentive.

Hello everyone! Jörg here. Starting from 18.07.22 I went to Expanish for 4 weeks. I had an intensive course with 4 hours of class from 9 to 13h and 2 hours of private class in the afternoon. I loved it! What was really good was that they had 30+ classes. The teachers are very professional and the classes were very fun. The other staff, especially Anna (from Brazil) and Miriam, were also very nice, helpful, fun, and very friendly. The school offers activities and excursions, which are interesting and a good way to practice Spanish with other students. The combination of learning Spanish at Expanish and enjoying life in Barcelona was an exceptional experience :))
