Exspanish is a wonderful school to learn Spanish
October 26, 2025by: Victoria Scordo - GermanyProgram: Study Abroad in Barcelona - Summer SessionExspanish is a wonderful school to learn Spanish in Barcelona. I had a great time and will continue my studies here for the next 3 months. Thanks to the Exspanish administration and teachers it is easy to learn everyday Spanish and get to know the city with the cultural excursions.
¡Hola, Victoria! Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re so happy to hear that you’re enjoying your experience in Barcelona and that you’ll be continuing your studies with us. It’s great to know our team and activities are helping you learn and explore the city. Hope the next months are just as rewarding! ¡Un fuerte abrazo!
All the foundations are there, could be excellent with a few tweaks
October 19, 2025by: Emilie Cumming - United KingdomProgram: Study Abroad in Barcelona - Summer SessionOverall I really enjoyed my Exspanish experience. It came with pros and cons as expected: Pros - great location, good class size, punctual, good course materials and tech, lovely and engaging teacher, nice environment. Cons - teacher didn't speak English which meant instructions took longer than necessary for us to all interpret, the activities were not well communicated at all and the one that I did do was a little chaotic and involved more walking than I wanted.
Dear Emile: Thank you very much for sharing your experience with us. We are very happy to know the aspects you value positively, as well as the areas for improvement. This information is very important to us because it helps us improve and make your experience at Expanish wonderful. Our communication methodology is based on introducing communication in Spanish from the very first minute. We are aware of the challenge this represents, but we also believe it is one of the most effective ways to learn a language. Even so, we greatly appreciate your suggestion, and we will take it into account so that the professor can be aware that at some point a very controlled use of English can help unlock communication. Thank you very much, Emilie, for your feedback, and we hope to see you again at Expanish. ¡Un abrazo!
Amazing! Next time would stay for longer
October 19, 2025by: Marissa Lanoff - United StatesProgram: Study Abroad in Barcelona - Summer SessionHad an incredible time! The students, the teachers and the classrooms are awesome. No notes. The course instruction was fun and based in real life situations, not just grammar or tenses. Wish I could have stayed longer! I think to learn or practice a language effectively (depending on your level) you need to stay 2-3 weeks minimum.
¡Hola, Marissa! Thank you for your kind words and for sharing your experience! :) We’re so happy to hear that you enjoyed the classes, the teachers, and the atmosphere at Expanish. It’s great to know you appreciated our practical, real-life approach to learning Spanish. We completely agree — spending a few weeks really helps to make the most of the immersion! Un abrazo, and we hope to welcome you back soon for a longer stay!

What inspired you to travel abroad?
I knew that I wanted to work and study abroad after having such a positive experience myself. I was contacted by a recruiter and told that a study abroad company in Argentina was looking for a native English speaker with experience in studying abroad. It was the first and only time that has happened to me and it happened to be at my dream job.

Participated in 2023
I was inspired to go abroad by my desire to improve my Spanish language skills. I had learned Spanish in the United States, but I really wanted to be fully immersed in Spanish and forced to use it daily. I really wanted to test and challenge my skills, and studying in a country where Spanish is the first language was the best way to do this.
