Your guarantees

All of the Spanish courses abroad you'll find listed on this site have passed a careful screening and selection process, so that you can study Spanish abroad with complete confidence. For your peace of mind, you can be sure that all of the Spanish schools listed here adhere to the following criteria:

They've been teaching Spanish for a minimum of 3 years and have built up a solid reputation.
They're accredited by the relevant educational authorities and/or are members of respected professional language teaching associations.
They employ only qualified teachers of Spanish.
They offer Spanish Language classes and social and cultural activities throughout the year.
They have an appropriately qualified and experienced person on their staff responsible for their students' welfare.

These are the absolute "musts" when looking for your school to study Spanish courses abroad. Other factors you'll have to take into account when choosing may be the following: whether it's a big school, with lots of different alternatives, or a cozy, family-run school; how many students there are in a class; whether it's in a big city or a small town, etc. But these are personal choices, depending on your preferences - the most important requirements have been checked for you beforehand.

"Quality, not quantity"

We've deliberately limited the number of Spanish courses abroad listed here, to make it easier for you to choose. For many Spanish study abroad locations (e.g. Barcelona, Antigua Guatemala, Cuernavaca, Buenos Aires, etc.) there are, literally, dozens of schools available, but we've limited the choice on this website to a maximum of 5 schools per location.

Five schools should be enough to provide all the choice and different Spanish courses abroad that you could need, but at the same time it's a manageable number to check out and make your decision. Our reasons for deciding which schools to include, if there are more than five candidates that comply with the quality criteria above, are diverse:

In many cases, we've worked with these schools and know them extremely well.
In other cases we've heard about them from other professionals or colleagues.
Finally, in the case of schools we didn't know so well, we checked with them directly to make sure they satisfied our criteria.
