Spanish Courses for Children and Families

My 6 yo son and 8 yo daughter attended in person while we were visiting Bilbao and now take classes online with Instituto Hemingway. I could not recommend the school more highly. My kids loved their in-person classes (their only issue was that they thought the lessons were too short!) and their Spanish improved markedly. And now they love their online lessons. Instituto Hemingway's teachers and teaching method make learning Spanish so much fun, the kids want to do it and work really hard. Plus, everyone we have worked with at Instituto Hemingway has been incredibly kind and professional. It has been a wonderful experience all around.

Great school with great teachers!! I loved my experience there, the way of teaching my kids is clear and the books are well-done. I like the fact that they are not more than 10 people in class so that the teacher can really stay focused on every student. They are also very helpful and reactive at the reception or by email if you have anything to ask. I insist on the fact that the teachers are really super nice and have a great approach with the students irrespective of age! The big "+" of the school are the activities that are organized for their students ! Rodrigo, the activities' coordinator, organize every week at least 5 activities so that we can meet the other students and have fun all together! They organize great city-trips for free like bike tour, street art tour, bar crawl, events, activities to discover the city and MANY other things! I really recommend this school at 200% to anyone who's willing to learn Spanish in Bilbao in a great atmosphere, awesome teachers and international students!

Instituto Hemingway was something which fell into my family's lap. We did not know what to expect and had never met anyone who had attended the school. I do believe this school gave me and my kids one of the most amazing Spanish learning experiences of our lives. This school experience in Bilbao started out as a "bucket lister" for me. In the end it was a life improving and changing experience for me and my two kids. My son, who is 10 years old and in 5th grade, gained not only amazing classroom experience, but also fantastic life experiences. He is a very easy going child and he soaked up the entire experience. Along with being able to make great projects in the class, he was able to go out into the city, go on the subways, take a certain amount of money and go on a shopping hunt. My daughter, who is 7 years old and in 2nd grade learned through art, puppets, play dough, and some city outings as well. I knew we were in a great school when her teacher would bring her back to me and she was smiling
