About AIL Barcelona
Language school AIL Barcelona is the newest location of the AIL chain. AIL Barcelona was previously known as Olé Barcelona, but has now joined the AIL schools that can also be found in Madrid and Málaga.
AIL Barcelona wants to offer you an engaging learning experience in the heart of the vibrant Eixample district. The school is located on Carrer Mallorca, just a 15-minute walk from Plaça Catalunya, close to all kinds of great art galleries, cafes, bars and shops.
In the school building you will find eleven bright, air-conditioned classrooms, which can accommodate up to nine students. This way you get a lot of personal attention which makes learning Spanish just that bit easier. During breaks you can relax and unwind by reading in the library or using computers in the modern computer room.
In addition to Spanish lessons, the school organizes all kinds of cultural and social activities, as well as group excursions in Catalonia, both during the week and at weekends. For example, you can participate in dinners and picnics, learn to dance Salsa or visit famous sights such as the beautiful Park Güell.
