Spanish Express

I chose a two-week immersion course staying at Monica’s home in Dosrius, and it was an incredible experience. Her home is very comfortable and perfectly located next to a national park. She has two amazing golden retrievers, and her kind parents live on the main floor. Her father’s cooking is truly restaurant quality! Each day included Spanish classes, hours of conversation with native speakers, and exciting excursions that combined adventure with more opportunities to practice Spanish. Monica and her entire team are fantastic—warm, professional, and deeply committed to helping you improve your Spanish. Monica herself is personable, extremely knowledgeable, and her hospitality is unmatched. I can’t recommend this experience enough. Thank you again, Monica!

Mi experiencia con Spanish Express fue increíble. Tuve la oportunidad de vivir con dos profesoras maravillosas: Mónica, que vive en Dosrius (cerca de Barcelona), y Pilar, que vive en Gilet (cerca de Valencia). Ambas ubicaciones fueron únicas y muy divertidas. ¡Aprendí muchísimo y ya tengo ganas de volver en el futuro!

Creo que este programa me ayudó a mejorar en todas las habilidades: habla, escucha, lectura y escritura. Además, las clases me motivaron aún más a seguir aprendiendo español.

Ahora continuaré con mis clases, me apuntaré a grupos para practicar más la conversación y, algún día, regresaré a España.

También tuve clases con dos profesoras más: Lydia y Ana. ¡Muchas gracias a Mónica, Pilar, Ana, Lydia y a las familias de Pilar y Mónica! Todos fueron muy amables, pacientes y hospitalarios.

Recomendaría este programa a cualquier persona que quiera aprender español.

My experience with Spanish Express was incredible. I had the opportunity to live with two wonderful teachers: Monica, who lives in Dosrius (near Barcelona), and Pilar, who lives in Gilet (near Valencia). Both placements were unique and a lot of fun. I learned so much and can't wait to return in the future!

I think this program helped me improve in all my skills: speaking, listening, reading, and writing. Plus, the classes motivated me even more to keep learning Spanish.

Now I'll continue with my classes, join groups to practice my conversation, and someday I'll return to Spain.

I also had classes with two other teachers: Lydia and Ana. A huge thank you to Monica, Pilar, Ana, Lydia, and Pilar's and Monica's families! Everyone was very kind, patient, and hospitable.

I would recommend this program to anyone who wants to learn Spanish.

I stayed in Valencia with Pilar for two weeks through the SHIP immersion program. Pilar made me feel at home and is a great teacher. I really enjoyed our lessons- they were very clear and structured. We also got to go on many excursions and practice authentic, everyday conversations during meals (not to mention, Pilar is an amazing cook!). I feel that my listening comprehension improved a lot in these two weeks and I’ve become more confident in speaking. I now have a good Spanish foundation and many tools to continue to practice thanks to this program. I hope to return soon.

Had an amazing week in Cádiz with Spanish Express, staying at Óscar’s place in Puerto Real. Joining the SHIP program helped me boost my Spanish skills for holidays and casual trips, and the setting was just right for that.

Óscar was a wonderful host who made me feel truly at home. Our mornings were spent in lessons, and the afternoons were for exploring the surroundings or practicing Spanish through conversation. The experience was laid-back yet really effective.

How the SHIP Program in Cádiz Boosted My Spanish ConfidenceThanks to this, I now feel much more confident using Spanish in everyday travel situations. I highly recommend this program to anyone looking for genuine, immersive language learning.

I spent a week in Cádiz with Spanish Express, staying in Óscar’s home in Puerto Real, and it was a fantastic experience. I joined the SHIP program to improve my Spanish for holidays and casual travel, and this was the perfect environment.

Óscar made me feel completely at home. We had lessons in the morning and spent the afternoons exploring the area or having conversations in Spanish. It was relaxed but very effective.

I now feel much more confident speaking in everyday situations while travelling. I’d definitely recommend this program to anyone wanting to learn Spanish in a real, authentic way.
