What we work on

What you need to say, not what the textbook says

Each lesson starts from a real situation in your week. Your teacher prepares it with you, and you practise it until it comes naturally.

Meetings and calls01 / 06

«¿Le parece si lo vemos el jueves con más calma?»

“Shall we go over it on Thursday, when there’s more time?”

Joining in, asking for the floor, adding nuance and reaching agreement.

Work emails02 / 06

«Le adjunto la propuesta que comentamos ayer.»

“Please find attached the proposal we discussed yesterday.”

The right tone: neither too curt nor too formal.

Paperwork and daily life03 / 06

«Vengo a abrir una cuenta; tengo cita a las diez.»

“I’m here to open an account; I have an appointment at ten.”

The bank, renting, school, the doctor and public offices.

Social conversation04 / 06

«¿Qué tal el fin de semana? ¿Al final fuisteis a la sierra?»

“How was your weekend? Did you make it to the mountains in the end?”

Meals, the long chat after lunch and the everyday «¿qué tal?».

Pronunciation05 / 06

«pero» no es «perro»

“but” is not “dog”

Vowels, the r and intonation, so that people understand you first time.

DELE and SIELE exams06 / 06

«Le voy a hablar de una experiencia…»

“I am going to tell you about an experience…”

Preparation for the oral and written papers, with mock exams.

A one-to-one lesson: your teacher, your documents, your pace.

If your first language is Arabic

Your teacher explains Spanish through Arabic

Our teachers are bilingual in Arabic and Spanish. When something is difficult — p and b, the vowels e and o, ser and estar — they explain it by comparing it with Arabic. You understand it sooner and forget it less.
