Spanish courses, camps & schools abroad

Adult Courses vs Camps for Kids – What Is the Difference?

At SPRACHCAFFE Spanish schools, we offer adult courses and junior camps. Each group tailors the content for specific age groups and learning goals.

Adult Spanish programs focus on independence and flexibility. Lessons focus on practical communication and cultural understanding. They can also include professional topics, like business Spanish, if you want. Adults can pick a standard or intensive course. They can manage their free time, which lets them explore Spain or Cuba at their own speed. This also helps them practice Spanish in real-life situations.

Junior Spanish camps combine structured lessons with an activity programme that includes full supervision. Teenagers learn in small groups and take part in organised excursions, sports, and cultural activities. Our experienced team ensures safety, clear routines, and daily guidance. Learning is interactive. It builds confidence and helps young learners develop a natural speaking style. They can do this without feeling pressure.

Choosing Spanish abroad means learning through real experience. Immersion strengthens your speaking confidence far more effectively than studying only at home.

At our Spanish language school, we teach with the communicative method. You speak from the very first lesson. Grammar supports your communication, and small classes ensure you practise regularly and receive personal feedback. An intensive Spanish course includes 20 to 30 lessons per week. This focused structure helps you progress quickly while still enjoying your destination. In Spain, you benefit from clear Castilian pronunciation and strong academic traditions. In Cuba, music, history and daily community life create lively, authentic conversation. Both destinations offer meaningful immersion guided by qualified teachers.

The difficulty of the classes is well adjusted and our teacher had talent for talking with people who aren't yet quite fluent with Spanish but also minimizing the use of English so we could learn efficiently.

I just finished my Spanish course at Malaga Plus (virtual - due to Covid) and I loved it. The teacher (Asun) was really great, she not only understood how to explain all that background on grammar etc but also really understood my priorities and adjusted to them (a lot of talking, vocabulary etc). She was well prepared, fun to work with and super nice! I can definitely recommend classes there and hope to come to Malaga soon and do another class in person (and with sun and tapas).

I loved the classes with my teacher Asun at Malaga Plus! Originally I was a bit sad, that because of COVID-19 I could not attend regular classes in Malaga but my online course with Asun exceeded all my expectations!! It was very well organized, with lots of learning materials and made my 3 weeks intensive course really enjoyable. I was able to get from a bad A2 to a solid B1 and passed my external exams with flying colors. It is probably a lot more fun in person but if you are thinking about using the rest of the pandemic to learn a language from home I can very much recommend this school and my lovely teacher Asun, who didn't give up on me even though it looked very bleak in the beginning.

Communication is key

Communication is the foundation of success when you learn Spanish abroad. In class, you build grammar and expand your vocabulary. Outside the classroom, you turn knowledge into real conversation.

Speaking with locals, teachers, and international classmates strengthens your confidence and fluency. You practise everyday situations, share your ideas, and become familiar with different accents from Spain and Cuba. Step by step, Spanish becomes more natural.

At SPRACHCAFFE, you use Spanish every day. You experience true immersion at school, during cultural activities, and in your accommodation. The more you communicate, the less you translate in your head. Instead, you begin thinking in Spanish. That is when real progress happens and meaningful international friendships begin to grow.

Visa and work regulations depend on your nationality, the destination and the length of your stay.

For short-term Spanish courses in Spain, EU citizens can usually travel and study without a visa. Participants from non-EU countries may need a short-stay visa, depending on their nationality and course duration.

For programmes in Mexico or Cuba, many nationalities can enter for short stays as tourists, but visa requirements vary. For longer study periods, a specific student visa may be required.

Regarding work, short-term language stays are normally designed for study only. In most cases, working is not permitted on a tourist visa. In Spain, non-EU students with a long-term student visa may be allowed to work part-time under specific conditions. Regulations in Mexico and Cuba are generally more restrictive.
