I've been attending this school for awhile and it's been nothing but fantastic. All the staff is nice, and the professors have been absolutely fantastic. The teaching is also great, it's helped a ton in my everyday life, I don't think I would be better anywhere else. I've been attending this school for awhile and it's been nothing but fantastic.

I highly recommend AIL Madrid and can honestly attest to the fact that one is never too old to learn a language!

We were also very impressed with how they adapted to the different class dynamic, with new students joining each week for different periods of time. Jenny and I both agree that our standard of Spanish has improved during this time and we plan to continue B2 with AIL online at home! One thing to add in terms of feedback, was that the classrooms did occasionally get a little hot and we would have liked a water cooler to be provided on-site.

It's not easy to keep a class interested for 4 hours a day, but he not only achieved this but also engaged us in such a way that I feel that my progress would not have happened without his methods. I also studied with another teacher, a nice fellow but not nearly as gifted as a teacher, so I doubly appreciated Ernesto's skill. I hope to come back to Madrid in the Fall and will return to the school provided that I can study with Ernesto once again. The quality of the instruction, for the cost, is very fair.

PS: I'm a 60 year old native of New York City who's doing this to improve his language skills and his mind. I speak Italian fluently so that helped me learn much quicker. I hope this information is useful when you make your choice of school, but if you come at the end of April or first part of May, bring a portable fan as I did!

I have also enrolled my daughter for 1hr/wk with Lara who comes to our home to teach my daughter after school. Everything was set up by my Admissions Advisor Diego Lopez who has made the process very convenient for us.

I will certainly continue to take classes at AIL Madrid for the 2yrs we're here.

My two main teachers were friendly, enthusiastic and responded well to our needs. They explained exercises well, but also allowed us to deviate from the tasks for interesting discussion on related topics. My private lesson teachers were similarly good.

My two main teachers were friendly, enthusiastic and responded well to our needs. They explained exercises well, but also allowed us to deviate from the tasks for interesting discussion on related topics. My private lesson teachers were similarly good. Lastly the optional activities were well led and usually very interesting. I also found the the admin staff very pleasant and efficient, and generally felt well-looked after. Even with only 5 days I believe my fluency and understanding of spoken Spanish improved significantly. I can't think of anything to grumble about !

I enjoyed my learning experience at AIL because my teachers were both challenging and engaging with the creative methods they used to help us learn Spanish. They used fun learning tools like Kahoots and board games to get us involved in the process of understanding Spanish vocabulary, verb tense, etc. I also met some really great people in my group and enjoyed the field trips in the afternoon that AIL arranged with my new friends.

I had a really great class at AIL, with people from different backgrounds getting to come together and support each other through the learning. There are fun after-class activities to join for the full experience and such lovely teachers.

The teaching was great 5*, however not having air-conditioning in Madrid in the summer made it difficult. I also stayed in one of their apartments, 2* for this. Don't expect anything like Airbnb standards. The accommodation administration was dreadful. A mixed review but great tuition.

My experience with ail Madrid went badly I highly don't recommend it, very bad at organizing everything, not flexible at all, always changing groups and teachers. It's simply a bad service compared to the price.
