Estudio Sampere Salamanca

"To say this is an excellent language school is an understatement. The central location in one of Spain’s most beautiful and historic cities, the quality of the language classes, and the incredible excursions to places like Segovia cannot be beat. But what really makes Estudio Sampere Salamanca special is the people who run it. They care about their students and each other and it shows. I am an American college professor who had such a great experience one summer that I returned with my teen daughter another year, then a group of university students the next (and now I plan to go back with my teen son). I witnessed things you will not find at other language schools - such as the director personally comforting a student before an exam, an evening of ballet classes with an administrator’s friends and family, and lunch out with the directors who have become dear colleagues and friends. They will go out of their way to make sure your experience is special. If you want a meaningful Spanish immersion experience in a safe, culturally significant location, look no further than Estudio Sampere - Salamanca. Highly recommend the Junior program, classes for college students, Spanish for teachers or those who use it in the workplace, and classes for the young at heart."

"I attended Estudio Sampere Salamanca in August and I must say it was fantastic. As a teacher myself, I was particularly impressed with the teachers pedagogy and their friendly, positive approach to learning! The education I received was authentic and it pushed me out of my comfort zone with Spanish, and as a result I learned so much! Also, the teachers are so incredibly supportive. It doesn't matter how many mistakes you make (I made a lot), the teachers will continue to encourage you. Learning a new language is a process and Estudio Sampere embrace the process. Also, Salamanca is a great city to learn Spanish. It is an authentic immersive experience. I would also highly recommend staying with a local family. This school arranges homestay and it is so worthwhile for your progression with the language. I highly recommend this school and all the wonderful staff."

"Estudio Sampere in Salamanca was wonderful. The teachers and staff were kind, well-qualified, and very flexible. I was excited to go to school every morning! I learned so much Spanish and also a lot about the culture and history of Spain. The optional outings were fabulous as well!"

"I attended several courses in this excellent school during my Spanish Studies at the University of my home country. At Estudio Stampere there is a very familiar atmosphere, the teachers are all nice, accommodating and professional, and as a student you are in a pleasant learning environment. I really loved to stay there every single day! They teach you a lot about the language but also about the Spanish culture. And you make friends from all around the world!!! Furthermore Salamanca is one of the most beautiful and inviting cities in the world, where you both can enjoy studying and living."

"I did a one week intensive beginners course at Estudio Sampere Salamanca in January, and wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who wants to improve their Spanish in a supportive and fun environment. All the staff were helpful and friendly, especially my teacher Lourdes who was great. The whole experience was delightful from the first day, the course materials, class size, and patience of my teacher were all great. The location of the school right in the heart of the beautiful city of Salamanca was great for exploring after class. I came away feeling much more confident and determined to carry on my studies. My only regret is that I wasn’t able to stay longer!"

"From start to finish, this was just a fantastic experience. Professional teachers and staff with a lot of dedication, hospitality, humor and patience. A very good mix of studying grammar, conversation and activities/field trips with varying teachers (which keeps things interesting). Small classes where teachers can attend to individual needs. Constant help and tips outside of classes. And always time for a small chat and a laugh. Thank you very much!"
