Description

This program, which is available to motivated students aged 16 to 19 who already speak some Spanish, provides the opportunity to spend one trimester or one academic year in "Bachillerato" (high school in Spain). Living with a Spanish host family, students experience and learn the Spanish language and culture from a real-world perspective. Studies take place in a private high school in Benalmadena, a few kilometers from Málaga, in the South of Andalusia.

This prestigious private high school was founded in 1975. For more than 30 years, its students' high results on the Selectividad exam (university entrance exam in Spain) have placed it among the five best high schools in the Province of Málaga. The school building is only minutes away from the downtown area. Situated in a calm neighborhood, the school has room for its own sports facilities and pool. The classrooms are bright and the school is entirely outfitted with modern conveniences. It features a large library, an art room, a science lab, a snack-bar, a small theater, and computer labs.

Highlights

During your stay, you will live with a host family who will provide all your meals. In order to assure a successful stay, our host families are carefully selected and regular contact is established between program coordinators and the families.

There is an on-site counselor who is available to help the school's foreign students. This person has experience in the field and stays in regular contact with the host families and their students. The counselor organizes get-togethers and does everything possible to assure that everything goes smoothly with the host families and the school. The staff at the school is also at your disposition should any problem arise.

Easy Languages's Mission Statement

In this steadily shrinking world where studies and employment are taking an increasingly international tilt, active knowledge of foreign languages is becoming an indispensable skill for students, business people, and even tourists. These skills, however, are extremely difficult to acquire at home. A stay among native speakers of the target languages not only facilitates the learning process, but most experts agree that it is essential to becoming a truly fluent speaker. With over 15 years of experience in organizing journeys abroad to study languages, we here at Easy Languages offer a range of courses for every age group, time line and budget. Our students participate in everything from week long holiday trips to England to year long exchanges in Costa Rica. As opposed to the majority of organizations offering services similar to ours, we do not charge any administrative price supplements. There are no hidden costs in any of our programs. All of our prices are clearly displayed in one convenient, readable table directly on the summary page of each program. We are a company that values honesty and believes that full disclosure is part of that commitment.
