Domande frequenti (FAQs)
Scuole
Sì. Tutte le scuole offrono attività settimanali ed escursioni organizzate nei weekend di tutto l’anno. Le attività cambiano ogni settimana e vengono illustrate direttamente a scuola. Alcune attività sono gratuite. Per altre invece è previsto un costo simbolico per coprire eventuali costi di trasporto, biglietti di ingresso ai musei ecc. Le attività e le escursioni segnalate sul nostro sito sono solo una parte di quelle che vengono proposte. Nella maggior parte delle scuole i programmi delle attività vengono preparati con una sola settimana di anticipo, per cui non possiamo sapere con certezza quali attività saranno proposte in uno specifico periodo. Alcune attività potrebbero richiedere un numero minimo di partecipanti.
Sì. In tutte le scuole il Wi-Fi è gratuito.
Sì, tutte le scuole chiudono durante le festività ufficiali. Puoi trovare il calendario delle vacanze scolastiche qui. Durante le vacanze non si tengono lezioni. Le lezioni di gruppo che vengono saltate non vengono di solito recuperate, ma ogni scuola può decidere diversamente. Se ci sono 2 giorni festivi nella stessa settimana, 1 verrà comunque recuperato.
Nella tua pagina personale troverai l’orario esatto in cui devi presentarti a scuola. Se hai già delle basi di spagnolo farai un test di livello. Sulla base del risultato del test, verrai inserito nel gruppo più adatto a te. Alcune scuole fanno un discorso di benvenuto o portano gli studenti a fare il tour dell’istituto e del quartiere. A questo punto le lezioni di spagnolo possono iniziare.
Nella maggior parte dei casi sì. In alcune scuole le aule potrebbero essere distribuite tra due o più edifici nelle immediate vicinanze.
Yes. Linguaschools schools have a mainly adult-focused learning environment, especially in our general group Spanish courses.
Most students in our general courses are adults with different ages, levels, nationalities and study goals. This includes short-stay language travellers, long-term students, university pathway students, exam-preparation students, expats, digital nomads and international residents.
In summer, we may have some students aged 16 or 17 at our schools, depending on the destination and the course. Individual students younger than 16 can usually book private Spanish lessons, depending on the school and availability.
We also welcome younger students in customised closed groups and school group travel programs.
Yes. All Linguaschools schools in Spain, Argentina and Costa Rica offer Spanish courses through schools accredited by Instituto Cervantes, either directly or through local academic partner schools.
Linguaschools Barcelona, Linguaschools Madrid and Linguaschools Granada are directly registered under their Linguaschools school names as Instituto Cervantes accredited centres. Other Linguaschools destinations, including schools in Spain, Argentina and Costa Rica, are connected to Instituto Cervantes accreditation through local academic partner schools or local accredited entities that form part of the Linguaschools network.
For other countries, accreditation and official recognition depend on the country and school. Some schools may be recognised by local education authorities, tourism bodies or other relevant organisations in their country.
If you need a specific accreditation or recognition for a visa, funding application, university pathway program or employer, please contact us before booking so we can confirm the details for your chosen school and course.
Corsi
Tutti i corsi iniziano di lunedì e finiscono di venerdì. Non è possibile iniziare un corso a metà settimana. La maggior parte dei corsi inizia ogni lunedì dell’anno. Se lunedì è festa il corso inizierà martedì. Ci sono date di inizio fisse per i principianti e per alcuni corsi speciali come quelli in preparazione agli esami e i corsi serali full immersion. I corsi individuali invece possono iniziare in ogni giorno della settimana.
L’ora esatta ti sarà comunicata sulla tua pagina personale, circa 5 giorni prima dell’inizio del corso. A seconda della tua destinazione le lezioni potrebbero iniziare in un orario compreso tra le 7.30 e le 9 del mattino, ma alcuni corsi sono pomeridiani.
Tutte le scuole hanno un numero consistente di studenti per ogni livello e in ogni periodo dell’anno. Questo significa che siamo sempre in grado di formare gruppi omogenei di studenti. Nel caso eccezionale in cui tu sia davvero l’unico nel tuo livello riceverai un numero ridotto di lezioni private.
In linea generale le lezioni di gruppo si svolgono al mattino tra le 9 e le 14 e al pomeriggio tra le 14 e le 19. Gli orari cambiano però in base alla singola scuola e potrebbero essere soggetti a variazioni durante i periodi di maggiore affluenza.
Il DELE (Diploma de Español como Lengua Extranjera) è un certificato emesso dall’Istituto Cervantes in nome del Ministero della Pubblica Istruzione spagnolo. Gli esami DELE seguono il quadro comune europeo di riferimento per le lingue: livelli A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2. Offriamo corsi di preparazione per questi esami e alcune delle nostre scuole sono sedi ufficiali e riconosciute in cui puoi sostenere l’esame DELE. Contattaci per maggiori informazioni.
Il SIELE è un esame che certifica la competenza linguistica a vari livelli. Ha un punteggio equivalente ai vari livelli del quadro comune europeo di riferimento per le lingue (A1, A2, B1, B2, and C1). Offriamo corsi di preparazione per questo esame e alcune delle nostre scuole sono sedi ufficiali e riconosciute in cui puoi sostenere l’esame SIELE. Contattaci per maggiori informazioni.
Se pensi di essere nel gruppo sbagliato contatta subito il segretario o la segretaria della scuola. La questione verrà discussa con i tuoi insegnanti, o con il preside, per valutare se spostarti in un altro gruppo.
Gli studenti che frequentano le nostre scuole sono molto diversi per età, nazionalità e background. Che tu sia uno studente universitario o che non metta piede in una scuola da più di 20 anni, ti sentirai comunque a casa. Tra luglio e settembre aumenta la percentuale di studenti molto giovani rispetto al resto dell’anno. I nostri studenti provengono da ogni parte del mondo. Ci sono però delle differenze a seconda della destinazione. Per saperne di più, dai un’occhiata alle statistiche che trovi sulla pagina dedicata ad ogni destinazione.
Sì. L’ultimo giorno ti sarà consegnato un certificato con le ore di lezione effettuate e il livello raggiunto. Per ottenere questo certificato è necessario frequentare almeno l’80% delle lezioni previste.
Anche se capita raramente, abbiamo notato che altre scuole di lingue o università non rispettano in modo così puntuale il quadro europeo di riferimento. Può capitare che valutino solo alcuni aspetti della competenza linguistica o che diano interpretazioni differenti del quadro di riferimento. Noi valutiamo il tuo livello di comprensione, lettura e ascolto e il modo in cui utilizzi attivamente la lingua nel parlato e nello scritto. Facciamo lo stesso test a tutti, quindi sarai sempre inserito in un gruppo di studenti con il tuo stesso livello di competenza. Se hai domande su questo argomento parlane con lo staff della scuola o con i tuoi insegnanti.
In Linguaschools crediamo nel metodo dell’immersione linguistica. Ciò significa che di solito in classe si parla soltanto spagnolo. Ciò è valido anche per le classi di principianti. Potrebbe risultare difficile i primi giorni, ma i nostri insegnanti sono esperti in questo metodo e ti supporteranno con disegni e gesti. Questo metodo ti aiuterà ad imparare lo spagnolo in modo efficace e rapido in quanto sarai letteralmente obbligato a praticare quotidianamente la lingua.
Alloggio
Sì certo. Offriamo l’alloggio come servizio extra per i nostri studenti, ma se vuoi organizzarti in autonomia puoi farlo senza alcun problema. Ti basterà prenotare il corso di spagnolo.
Il costo dell’alloggio comprende anche tutte le bollette (acqua, gas e elettricità). Non verrà addebitato alcun costo aggiuntivo. In alcuni casi sarà richiesta una cauzione, ma ti verrà comunicato in anticipo l’importo. La cauzione ti sarà restituita al termine della tua permanenza dopo aver verificato che non ci sia stato nessun danno all’appartamento. Nella maggior parte degli alloggi c’è anche la lavatrice. In caso contrario ti avviseremo.
Di solito l’alloggio si considera prenotato dalla domenica prima dell’inizio del corso fino alla domenica dopo la fine del corso. Le notti in più sono soggette a disponibilità, ma possono essere aggiunte su richiesta. In questo caso sarà addebitato un costo extra per ogni notte aggiunta. Tieni conto che a Valencia è possibile arrivare di sabato senza alcun costo aggiuntivo e che a Montañita e Tamarindo puoi partire di domenica senza costi aggiuntivi. Se vuoi prenotare una notte in più lascia un commento nel modulo di iscrizione online o mandaci un’ email.
Non oltre i 30 minuti a piedi dalla scuola in ogni destinazione. Alcuni residence sono addirittura nella scuola stessa. Gli appartamenti condivisi potrebbero essere nei dintorni (Barcellona, Salamanca, Granada e Malaga), ma sempre ad una distanza ragionevole.
Le lenzuola pulite sono incluse. Salvo diversa indicazione, dovrai portare i tuoi asciugamani.
La formula mezza pensione include la colazione e la cena, mentre la formula pensione completa include la colazione, il pranzo (al sacco) e la cena.
Se non sei soddisfatto della tua sistemazione per qualche motivo, fallo presente alla reception della scuola. Nella maggior parte dei casi i piccoli problemi possono essere risolti facilmente. Se invece sei deciso a cambiare alloggio lo puoi fare se abbiamo un’altra sistemazione disponibile al momento e se la motivazione è ragionevole. In questo caso ti verrà addebitato un costo aggiuntivo.
Il servizio di pulizie è incluso nel prezzo. Tuttavia verranno pulite solo le aree comuni come il bagno, la cucina e il soggiorno. Dovrai occuparti di pulire e riordinare la tua stanza oltre che lavare i piatti, buttare la spazzatura e sbrigare le piccole incombenze quotidiane.
Sì. Dovrai lasciare un commento sul modulo di iscrizione online in modo che possiamo tenerne conto.
Ogni destinazione e ogni famiglia sono diverse. Alcune famiglie accolgono uno studente per volta. Altre ne accolgono anche 2 o 3 insieme. Di solito evitiamo di assegnare più studenti provenienti dallo stesso Paese alla stessa famiglia per garantire maggiori possibilità di praticare lo spagnolo.
Nella maggior parte degli alloggi (famiglie e appartamenti condivisi) non sono presenti serrature per le camere da letto. Nei residence invece ogni camera può essere chiusa a chiave.
In ogni famiglia avrai privacy e indipendenza e potrai andare e venire a tuo piacimento. Tuttavia ti chiediamo di essere rispettoso e non disturbare di notte. Se non sarai a casa per i pasti dovrai avvisare un membro della famiglia con anticipo.
Sì, in ogni tipo di alloggio c’è il Wi-Fi. A Montañita non tutte le famiglie hanno il Wi-Fi.
Sì, in ogni tipo di alloggio c’è l’acqua calda. Tuttavia l’acqua calda non può essere garantita a Montañita in alcune famiglie.
Sì, puoi arrivare di notte. A Barcellona e Valencia ci sono alcune limitazioni e potresti dover pagare un costo supplementare o organizzarti un trasporto privato dall’aeroporto in caso di arrivo notturno.
Negli appartamenti condivisi e nei residence puoi usare la cucina. Troverai anche un frigo. In famiglia di solito non è permesso usare la cucina se non per prepararsi un piccolo spuntino.
Visti
Gli studenti provenienti dai Paesi dell’Unione Europea non necessitano di alcun visto per venire in Spagna. Gli studenti di altri Paesi (USA, Canada, Brasile, Giappone e Corea) in possesso di regolare passaporto possono tranquillamente rimanere in Spagna fino a 3 mesi senza visto. Per rimanere più di 3 mesi sarà necessario richiedere un visto per studenti (tipo D). Gli studenti provenienti da altri Paesi oltre a quelli citati dovranno contattare l’Ambasciata o il Consolato spagnolo più vicino a loro per informarsi circa la procedura corretta. Linguaschools può fornire una lettera di accettazione per supportare la richiesta del visto.
La risposta a questa domanda dipende dal tipo di passaporto che possiedi e dalla tua destinazione. Consigliamo di verificare sempre i requisiti specifici per l’ingresso in ogni Paese. Le informazioni aggiornate possono essere richieste alle Ambasciate o ai Consolati di ogni Paese e verificate anche tramite i loro siti web. Se hai domande particolari contattaci.
Sul sito del Ministero degli Esteri spagnolo puoi trovare l’elenco delle Ambasciate e dei Consolati spagnoli nel mondo. Puoi anche consultare “Embassy Finder” per localizzare l’Ambasciata corretta.
Per inviarti una lettera di accettazione richiediamo il pagamento anticipato dell’intero soggiorno (corso + alloggio). La lettera di accettazione è gratuita. Possiamo inviartene una copia via email. Di solito è sufficiente la versione digitale, ma se viene richiesta la spedizione via posta o corriere ti addebiteremo il costo.
Dovrai informarci al più presto del fatto inviandoci via email la copia della comunicazione ufficiale di rifiuto. In alcuni casi potremmo riuscire ad impugnare la decisione e aiutarti ad ottenere il visto. Se invece la tua richiesta venisse definitivamente respinta dovresti annullare la prenotazione, ma riceveresti il rimborso dell’intero importo versato meno una piccola tassa amministrativa. Per ulteriori informazioni leggi la sezione “Termini e Condizioni”

Yes. Linguaschools Madrid continues the school previously known as Spaneasy, now as part of the Linguaschools Spanish language school network.
The school remains a small boutique-style Spanish school in central Madrid, next to Puerta del Sol, offering Spanish courses for adult learners in a personal, international learning environment. Students can still expect the same local Madrid school atmosphere, now combined with the wider course organisation, accommodation options and student support of the Linguaschools network.
Linguaschools Madrid is located in the centre of Madrid, on Carrera de San Jerónimo, a 1-minute walk from Puerta del Sol and Sol metro station.
The school is surrounded by cafés, shops, restaurants, cultural sights and public transport connections. This makes it easy to reach from different parts of the city and practical for students who want to combine Spanish lessons with daily life in Madrid.
Linguaschools Madrid is mainly suited to adult learners and young adults who want to study Spanish in a personal, international school environment.
Students come from different countries and backgrounds, with different ages, Spanish levels and study goals.
