About Enforex

Step inside this recently renovated 20th-century building in Alicante's old quarter, near the City Hall, and the boutique feel is immediate: high ceilings, natural light, and a handful of classrooms built for small groups rather than crowds. Enforex Alicante teaches Spanish close to the seafront, in a setting that keeps things personal from day one.

Classes average six students and cap at ten, rising to twelve only in high season, so you get real attention from your teacher. Afternoons bring a steady run of activities such as city tours, museum visits and dance classes, with some only running once enough students sign up.

Enforex is right for you if you…

  • Want a boutique, close-knit school feel
  • Want a central, beachside location
  • Enjoy hands-on cultural activities
  • Prefer a mixed, international student community

Is Enforex right for you?

This school in central Alicante suits learners who want personalised, small-group teaching alongside an active cultural programme and easy beach access. If you would prefer a large, campus-style school, this close-knit, boutique setting may not be the best fit.

Your first day at Enforex

Your course begins at 8:00 on Monday morning, when new students arrive at the school to get started. A member of the local team meets you first, helps you settle in, and signs you up for the activities and excursions you want to join during your stay.

From there, you sit a placement test that puts you in the right class for your level, and you leave with a class schedule matched to where your Spanish stands right now. You buy your course books separately, and online materials are included in some programmes.

What classes are like at Enforex

Group lessons run somewhere between 09:00 and 17:00, with most classes scheduled in the morning. Your timetable is confirmed on arrival, based on the course and level you take. Each class lasts 55 minutes, and your break grows with your day, from 20 minutes if you have four lessons up to 30 minutes on a six-lesson day.Classes stay small, averaging six students and capping at ten, with up to twelve allowed during the busiest summer weeks. Teaching follows a personalised, conversation-based method, and an online test checks your level before you arrive, so you join one of six CEFR levels from A1 to C2 from day one.

Social life at Enforex

Enforex Alicante describes its own atmosphere as boutique, mixed and culturally immersive, built around small class groups rather than a big anonymous cohort. Outside class, students get to know each other through the school's shared spaces and its weekly activity programme, from guided walks to dance classes. Before you even land in Alicante, the school's Facebook group lets you start chatting with other students ahead of your first day. Here are some of the concrete ways that community comes together once you arrive.
