Language school Academia Contacto Alicante

I really appreciated the decoration of the school, the facilities and to me the quality of the tap water was also important.

Sandra is a marvellous teacher with excellent people skills and interesting outfits.

Amazing school! I came to Spain for a year to practice my Spanish and had so many questions about getting a visa and school stuff helped me with everything. Also, I rent a room from school at Sandoval, it's very clean (cleaning lady comes every week), located in the best location possible, and has every amenity for a comfortable living.

Teaching system is very good here, teachers only speak Spanish during classes (but they know English as well), so at first it's very difficult, but then you get used to that and you can feel that your Spanish improves rapidly. Also, the school director is extremely nice and always ready to help if you have any questions.

5/5, for sure. I'm really glad that I picked this school.

Professor Lola is what makes this school a 5/5 for me! Her teaching style incorporates all facets from writing, listening, reading and speaking. She provides feedback on your speaking throughout the class and also incorporates active ways of learning, such as asking students to prepare a mini presentation. From her teachings to her personality, she's passionate and it is evident she cares about her students' learning. I've attended 3 schools in Spain, and I've had different professors, and Lola is one of the best of the best!!!

While I can't speak for the other levels, the C1 class I was in didn't have more than 8-9 students in a classroom, which I loved. I've attended schools such as Camino Barcelona (and while the school has many reviews, as they try to give incentives for students who write reviews), but I wouldn't recommend a big class size because there were just way too many people and the administration was so disorganized, which is why I found another school, Linguaschools in Barcelona. In all honesty, I am glad Linguaschool had a partnership with Academia Contacto, so I was able to continue my studies with this school in Madrid.

One con: Some classrooms didn't have the greatest ventilation (some classrooms don't have windows), but honestly, this is something I've noticed in all 3 schools I attended in Spain, so for me, I was kind of used to that. All in all, Lola's teaching outweighs the cons without a doubt.

This is an excellent spanish learning school. The staff are all very friendly and helpful and I was made to feel very welcome from day one. The teacher, Sandra, has a very good teaching style and uses a number of different methods to make the lessons interesting and flow well. She is particularly good, and patient, at explaining some of the more difficult aspects of the language which would otherwise hinder the learning. The class contains many very interesting people from around the world, who have helped make the experience very rewarding. After my first 3 weeks i have become more confident with the language and am able to use it more widely than before. Looking forward to the next few weeks. Highly recommended.

The best teachers in Madrid! Highly professional, passionate, making learning experience enjoyable!

The classes are interactive, with a great balance between grammar, conversation, and cultural immersion.

Highly recommend it to anyone wanting to learn the language in the heart of Spain!

I had a great experience doing an intermediate course in person at Academia Contacto. The teacher had a sense of humor and made learning the language fun. The class size was small, around 8 people, and there was plenty of interaction between students and practical conversational exercises. We also got handouts and book recommendations. Overall a great experience for a 4 week summer course.

I love Academia Contacto. Wonderful school, excellent teachers, nice people and friendly helpful atmosphere. I can only recommend it!

The class size was a bit too large and also uncomfortable for the room size. The teacher and assistant would laugh quite a bit when students were incorrect.

Generally were not the most helpful or flexible. I asked for options of changing my classes and received a reply 'no, sorry no trading'.  I requested guidance around the city and was just told to look online - all fine responses, but definitely underwhelming.

Academia Contacto is a highly recommended place in Madrid to learn Spanish👍 🇪🇸🇪🇸. The teachers 🧑‍🏫 are skilled , experienced, and passionate. The curriculum is comprehensive, covering all aspects of language learning. Cultural immersion activities enhance the learning experience. The facilities are excellent, with comfortable classrooms. The staff is friendly and helpful. It's a standout institution for Spanish language learning. Highly recommended for all proficiency levels. Interactive teaching methods make learning engaging. Relevant course materials are provided. 👍👍👍👍

Had a 10h/week course to save some time and energy for work later in the day. But n real life, 20h takes the same efforts as a 10h, - and returns more results, so if I would choosing between these two again, I’d stick to 20h

As for quality - feels easy and enjoyable, the best language courses I’ve ever had. Thanks to wonderful Sandra!

I took classes here for 3 weeks and had a wonderful experience. My teachers (Lola and Sergio) are highly competent teachers who make learning Spanish fun. The students in my class are from all over the world (Brazil, England, Morocco, Tunisia, New Zealand, Italy) which positively adds to the learning experience. The director and School staff are nice and helpful people. The school apartment is located conveniently in a very nice neighborhood, 10 minute walk from school. It is well-appointed. U.S. students should be aware though that it is common in Spain to have male and female students in a shared apartment. If you are not comfortable, ask first. I have all female roommate so that wasn't a problem.

I love the way of teaching, knowledge and passion that my teacher has. Because of her, I could understand a complicated Spanish grammar really well. Also there were many conversation practices which helped me a lot! I definitely recommend:)

I am very happy to be studying here, their services are great. Very welcoming and warm atmosphere, teachers are great. Everyone is so friendly and helpful, 100% recommend! Thanks for everything!!

I am really grateful this school for incredible learning process. I had no idea that studying smth new could be so awesome. Teachers are truly know their business! I came to this school to learn Spanish to deal with some professional things, but I’d fallen in love with Spanish by teacher’s help.

Moreover, I want to stress that class’s atmosphere was very friendly. In spite of the fact that we all were from different countries, we really supported each other. One more time: thank you very much for what you are doing!

I've been taking classes here for 2 weeks, I'm a beginner (A1). The school is great, the classrooms are clean, and the staff and teachers are friendly. The course is well designed, and the Spanish is specific to Spain. I'm taking the intense course and I've learn a lot very quickly. Also, Laura is a great teacher! I'm very happy with my decision to take classes here.
