Spanish courses before your hotel placement
¿Hablas Español? The Spanish Work Exchange Programme organises Spanish courses according to your desire.
The Spanish courses we offer are optional and not compulsory for participation in our programme; even if you just have basic Spanish skills you are not obliged to participate. However, it is a big advantage to start your training with basic Spanish skills, so that you can converse with your colleagues. Should you have no or just little Spanish knowledge, we recommend a 4-weeks intensive Spanish course as preparation for your stay abroad.
Generally speaking: If you can spend the time and money, you should attend a Spanish course in preparation to your practical training! Our partner language schools are situated in the most important Spanish cities.
Please ask us for the pricelist of our Spanish language courses. We will send you an individual offer according to your desired duration and destination of your language course.
The city of Salamanca
Salamanca is located relative in the middle of the Spanish mainland; it is about 200 km away from Madrid and with its round 150,000 inhabitants, still quite contemplative. However, it was 2002 European City of Culture, thanks to the most beautiful Plaza Mayor in Spain and two ancient cathedrals.
As nickname Salamanca is called "Golden City" because many old buildings in the city centre have been erected from the same sandstone and are bright shining under the sun. But best known is Salamanca for its university, which is the second oldest university in Spain and takes up to 40,000 students.
Because a majority of the inhabitants of Salamanca are students, the city is shaped accordingly; this is particularly shown by a very lively nightlife and a large concentration of bars and clubs. Incidentally, in Salamanca the best high Spanish is spoken, which makes it particularly attractive for language holidays.
