The Spain Language Institute
Ciudad Real
The Spain Language Institute started in 1995.
The centre has a solid reputation for fair dealing and achievement, and is a member of the National Federation of Language schools (FECEI) and the Regional Association of Language Schools (ACAMCEDI).
The school is a standard neighbourhood English Language Academy and, together with its sister school (Escuela de Idiomas Spain in Puertollano), shares a total of seven teachers, two secretaries and a Director.
We have students from as young as 5, continuing all through the age and ability range, up to young adults at First Certificate and Proficiency levels. Classes vary in size, depending on age and level, from a maximum of 12 students at the younger levels to 8 and 6 at higher levels.
All teaching takes place on the premises from Monday to Friday between 4pm and 9.30pm. Students have three hours of class per week.
The Cambridge First Certificate Examination is held on the premises every June and we are also a TOEIC authorized examination centre with students sitting the TOEIC test regularly throughout the year.
TEACHING
The school is spacious, is on the ground floor and has natural light in all classrooms, and there is abundant resource material in the staff room.
At the beginning of each school year, all teachers are given a thorough briefing on the classes they will have, with detailed information on the English learning background of each student, previous reports etc. All help and guidance is available throughout the year in a relaxed and happy atmosphere. As there is very little staff turnover from year to year, when there is a need for one or two new teachers at any given time, it is an ideal opportunity for a relatively inexperienced but enthusiastic young teacher to develop valuable skills.
