Work Experience Student from Germany.
“We brought our year 12 A level students to Onspain instead of doing an exchange week with a Spanish class as we felt it would be more beneficial to them and their language development. All the classes are taught in Spanish but at a pace which the students can understand. We also decided to take part in some of the organized cultural activities, where our students were able to discover the real Spain. If you are studying Spanish as a foreign language it is definitely something you should do to boost not only your language knowledge but also to understand a different culture, which I think really benefits your studies.”
Laura Duval
OnSpain School has been a valued partner of ours for several years now. Their reliability and flexibility is very important to our business, not to mention the sheer quality of the language courses, excursions, activities and accommodation services they provide. From the beginning of our collaboration they have provided us with fantastic service, always with a smile. OnSpain’s support has been invaluable to us and we look forward to doing business with them for many years to come.
Rob Butt
Travel Agent from the UK.
We have been working with OnSpain for over 6 years now and are satisfied with their good services from the beginning of the planning until the end of the trip. Our groups appreciate the quality of the Spanish classes and their teachers. Also, to experiment home stay with Spanish families definitely add a lot to the cultural immersion. Organizing the trip with the team of OnSpain is very pleasant, you can feel they are doing it with passion. I recommend strongly to do business with this group, you won’t be disappointed.

The thing I liked the most about staying in a family was that I felt settled straigth away. Their home was very close to the language school and was very clean and comfortable.
Tom Evans
Spanish Language Student from the UK.
The mixture of cultural, linguistic and sports activities was for me very optimally well balanced and organized.
Damian Huber
Spanish Language Teacher from the UK.
The fact that the students speak Spanish literally throughout the entire program was one of the biggest advantages of our time in Spain
Cristina González
Spanish Language Teacher from the UK.
My pupils stayed with Spanish families and were very content. It´s not only low-cost but also beneficial to the student’s language learning and enables them to explore the culture. The best aspects of our experience were the friendliness of the Spanish people, the quality of the food and how close the homes were to the school.
Elena Cordero
Spanish Language Teacher
I wanted to experience Spanish life as much as possible here, as I adore the Spanish. Hence I chose home stay. The conversations with the family members were the best part of my experience in Spain, aside from the food, having my own bedroom and the entire home being so clean. I would without a doubt do it again.
Susana Smith
Spanish Language Teacher from the UK.
Anna: “To fellow students… If you are thinking of visiting Spain, we recommend staying with a host family as you will have the opportunity to get to know Spanish families and their customs up-close. Our host family were so positive. Our host mum and her son gave us a fantastic experience. After arriving in Málaga, we were taken directly to the school in Pedregalejo, a small area outside of Málaga, where our host families where waiting for us. Waiting to pick us up was a tall handsome boy with black hair, and his mum.”

The coordination of the programme and all activities have been excellent. The accompanying tour guides are so pleasant and friendly.
Allan Abbott

If I were to describe our stay in Spain in three points I would say: fun, very informative and a big linguistic progress.
Michael Smith
Spanish Language Student from the UK.
I love Andalusia and for that reason I decided to travel to the wonderful city of Málaga. As well as visiting the city I wanted to improve my Spanish, so I took part in an OnSpain School language course which helped me to speak much more fluently. I really liked my teacher and the classes, they were not boring at all. We had a lot of fun and overall I had a great opportunity to improve my Spanish.
Saskia Aaldenberg
Spanish Language Student from The Netherlands.
I came to OnSpain to improve my Spanish grammar knowledge. The teachers were very helpful and explained everything clearly. Furthermore I was able to put my newly learned skills into practice with my Spanish host family, who made me feel very welcome. I thoroughly enjoyed my time in Malaga and would recommend it to anyone who wants to develop their language skills.
Lauren Norman
Spanish Language Student from the UK.
The school is in a great location with very friendly multilingual staff and the teacher was brilliant ! Our class was small with a good balance between learning, speaking and taking breaks plus she had time for all our questions and somehow always kept us on the right learning track.
Paul Seal
Spanish Language Student
I am very grateful for the opportunity to have studied Spanish in the OnSpain language school these last four weeks. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable and showed genuine interest in helping students to learn Spanish. I would like to give special thanks to my teacher Amaya for her remarkable ability to teach Spanish. She created an ambience in the classroom that was not only inspiring, motivating and challenging, but above all a great experience.
Wayne Farmer
Spanish language student from the USA.
I am a Spanish teacher in Germany. In my classes I realized that my students needed to learn Spanish in Spain to get a real feel for the language. That is the reason why I decided to enroll my students on a Spanish course in Málaga. The Onspain school offers courses for groups which was why I chose this particular school. My students´ Spanish improved greatly and they seemed to take really well to their style of teaching. Furthermore, they had fun in the classes and enjoyed the weather and beach in the beautiful city of Málaga.
