Description

Our school in Barcelona is located in an extremely fabulous new building (5 floors) in the heart of the city center, on the famous boulevard "La Gran Via". 65 spacious classrooms all with windows and balconies, multimedia classroom, central meeting and recreational area where you can watch TV, read the newspapers, have a coffee with your fellow students or do your homework. You can also, of course, get sun tanned in our magnificent sun terrace on the roof!

Also enjoy our don Quijote residence located in the same building as our school: 25 rooms, 24 hours security guard service, fully equipped kitchen, dining room and living room. This is how most of our students really feel at home in Barcelona! Besides our Spanish courses, why not gain real-life experience abroad? With our internships, you will experience for yourself the very different Spanish business protocols, learn to do business in a completely different culture, and gain fluency in both formal Spanish as well as local and profession-specific jargon. These are factors which may well mean the difference between business success and failure.

Don Quijote's Mission Statement

don Quijote was established in 1986 as a language travel agency representing Spanish language schools.

In 1989, responding to the growing demand for high quality Spanish language courses, we began welcoming students to the first don Quijote school, in Salamanca. In the 22 years since our founding, we have grown to 7 company-owned locations in Spain and Latin America and a network of more than 28 partner schools, largely through the recommendation of more than 150,000 satisfied students. At don Quijote, our watchwords are Quality, Innovation and Partnership. While we continue to lead - in academics, in value and in innovation - we continually seek out new ways to take the quality of our courses and our service to our students to the next level... and the next... and...
