I took classes for six weeks. They were enjoyable, with well-trained teachers who made the lessons fun and informative. The school itself is bright and comfortable, and the staff is highly responsive and friendly. I highly recommend Expanish.
Wonderful school with engaging teachers. Centrally located. Hope to come back some day.
Stayed for 9 weeks, it was great. My friend and I were in a host family together and they were amazing. The school itself was really fun and my Spanish improved a lot. It's also a great social experience. Super easy to make friends from loads of different countries.
