FAQ's about our Beginner Spanish Course

This course is ideal for you if:

  • You are a complete beginner and have little or no previous knowledge of Spanish.
  • You live in Madrid or can attend classes at our school.
  • You want face-to-face support from a qualified Spanish teacher.
  • You cannot commit to a daily intensive course.
  • You can invest six hours each week into your Spanish.
  • You want a structured alternative to studying alone with an app.
  • You want to build the foundations needed to continue learning Spanish after the course.

No, this course is designed for you to commit and complete the whole course in 8 weeks. Your classmates will continue to learn even if you do miss classes – you’ll have all the contents and materials to catch up! You’ll also have access to the materials from day one until 12 weeks after your course starts. 

We offer evening Spanish courses at LAE Madrid, but the format works better if you have a higher level. That’s why we designed this course. You can make maximum progress during your 8 week course using a flipped classroom methodology.

Unlike a traditional part-time course, this programme combines 3 hours of face-to-face classes each week with around 3 hours of guided online study. This extra practice helps you review what you’ve learned, prepare for upcoming lessons, and build confidence much more quickly.
