Course description

Intensive course is designed for all levels from A1 to C2 with 4 hours of classes per day from Monday to Friday and students can quickly learn Spanish from scratch in just a few months.
Our program includes:
• 1 Hour of Grammar: Focused sessions to understand the rules and structure of the Spanish language.
• 2 Hours of General Spanish: Using a structured course book, students cover essential vocabulary and language skills.
• 1 Hour of Conversation Practice: Engage in practical conversation with professional native teachers to enhance fluency.
We strive to help students get up to speed with the language and immediately use their skills in everyday life, so the instructor communicates with the group from the first class in Spanish only. This is challenging at first but shows impressive results later. As conversational practice, students solve communicative situations covering everything from news to upcoming school events.
Each month, teachers organize special activities outside the classroom, providing practical opportunities to apply what students have learned:
• Picnics in local parks
• Visits to nearby markets
• Cultural center tours
• Walks around iconic Barcelona neighborhoods
These excursions not only help students practice Spanish in real-life settings but also immerse them in local culture, enhancing your understanding of the language’s nuances.

School description

Freeda Language Space has two schools in Barcelona, one in El Born (C/dels Flassaders, 7) and another in Gracia (Carrer de Alegre de D'Alt, 57). Both schools are accredited by the Instituto Cervantes and FEDELE, and we are also official examination centers for CCSE, DELE, and siele. All our teachers are native speakers with extensive experience in teaching Spanish as a foreign language (ELE) and hold high linguistic and teaching qualifications. We have our own method: the Freeda Space Method, which helps transform theoretical knowledge into practical, real-life skills. The Freeda Space Method includes up to 20 hours of tuition per week with native teachers, studying in small groups of up to 12 people and lots of practice in a relaxed atmosphere that invites you to speak form day one. In addition, you can continue learning and practicing in our activities: excursions and cultural celebrations. Thanks to all this, our students know how to introduce themselves, order a coffee in a bar, ask questions and talk about topics of interest.

School location

Freeda Language School Gràcia is located in the neighborhood of Gràcia, a historic district full of restaurants, cafés, authentic shops, and artists' workshops, yet away from the typical tourist routes. However, if you ever want to visit the main tourist attractions again, it's just a 15-minute uphill walk to Parc Güell.

"Comprehensive"

Olga Khaykina

I attended an intensive Spanish course at Freeda Language Space in El Born. I was amazed by the location, it's indeed one of most beautiful and vibrant locations in the heart of the city. During the course i was facing various teachers as the school policy is keen to give you 'access' to different accents and approach, though based on the same program and the school book. The teaching method involved active listening, encouraged us to speak up and we also had a 1h grammar lesson which i enjoyed a lot. During my course i also attended cultural events: museum visit, hiking, etc - always accompanied by school teachers and my fellow classmates. I fell in love with both language and culture thanks to Freeda!
