All volunteers, apart from those with an advanced level of Spanish, take part in a four-week intensive Spanish course before volunteering. The Spanish courses are available at all levels from beginner to advanced and classes take place daily in small groups. Two hours daily will be dedicated to grammar, and two hours to conversation. Classes take place between 09:00 and 15:00 from Monday to Friday. There will be a break of 15-20 minutes between the two-hour classes. At some point during your Spanish course, you will be introduced to the on-site coordinator of your volunteer program.
