LEARN SPANISH IN ONE UNIQUE PLACE

Discover Tenerife while learning the language


Tenerife is much more than sun and sand. On a single island, you’ll find volcanoes, forests, cliffs, and villages steeped in history, along with an open and welcoming culture that invites you to experience Spanish from day one.

Thanks to its mild climate year-round, Tenerife is the perfect place to combine study and leisure time. After your classes, you can stroll along the coast, discover the local cuisine, go surfing, or explore trails with views of the Atlantic Ocean.

Learning Spanish here means becoming part of the island’s rhythm: talking to people, enjoying the outdoors, and experiencing authentic culture while improving your language skills.

SANTA CRUZ AND LA LAGUNA: THE HEART OF THE ISLAND

A lively, authentic and well-connected area where Spanish is lived in everyday life, far from tourism and close to local culture.

What a wonderful place to learn Spanish! Samuel explained everything with immense patience every day. You can really tell he loves the language, and that's incredibly motivating. No question was too much, and he always took the time to make sure you truly understood. And of course, José, who welcomed me with a big smile every day. I not only learned a lot here, but also felt truly welcome. Absolutely recommended! ¡Gracias por todo!

I attended this language school for two weeks and it was great! The boss Jose is very welcoming and friendly. My teacher Michelle was also very nice and supportive and I learnt a lot in this two weeks there! Therefore I can greatly recommend this school and I would totally choose it again if I am in Santa Cruz for the next time!

Super tolle Sprachschule! Ich habe sie 10 Monate lang besucht und kann wirklich nur von ihr schwärmen. Von Anfang an wird man super herzlich aufgenommen und man fühlt sich immer wie viel mehr, als nur ein bezahlender Kunde. Die Schule ist eben eher klein und hat eine sehr gemütliche, fast schon familiäre Atmosphäre. Jeden Tag habe ich mich hier sehr gefreut zur Tür hereinzukommen und alle wiederzusehen. Hier erfährt man wirkliche spanische Herzlichkeit. Die Lehrer sind sehr professionell und bringen einem gut etwas bei, wobei sie sich auch ohne Probleme an das Niveau der Schüler anpassen, sodass man weder gestresst, noch unterfordert sein muss. Das schöne hier ist aber auch, dass man neben dem Lernen auch stundenlang mit den Lehrern über alles andere in der Welt reden könnte, weil sie einfach so offen und sympathisch sind. Zudem lernt man auch sehr viel über die kanarische Kultur, insbesondere natürlich der von Teneriffa. Insgesamt habe ich von hier auf allen Ebenen sehr viel mitgenommen und kann nur von ganzem Herzen Dankeschön sagen!! Dicke Empfehlung!

There weren't enough other people at my level for me to be in a class, so I was set up for private lessons. Because of varied scheduling needs I had one main instructor for the two weeks and two that filled in on different days. All of the instructors were patient, friendly, approachable and willing to give extensive answers to my many, many questions. I would definitely return given the chance.

Ich war von September 2023 bis Juni 2024 in Canarias Cultural (habe ein Au Pair in einer spanischen Familie gemacht) und kann die Sprachschule wärmstens empfehlen. Sie ist super gelegen und gut zu erreichen. Der Direktor José hat mich von Anfang an mit offenen Armen empfangen und mir auch in Bezug auf Santa Cruz super viele Tipps gegeben, wie man die Guagua nutzt etc. Und hat von Anfang an auch immer mein damals noch eher schwaches Spanisch korrigiert, wenn er mal einen Fehler gehört hat, find ich super 👍🏼 Alle drei Professoren, die ich in den Monaten hatte (Michelle, Dani, Samuel), waren super nett und haben mir viel beigebracht. Es war auch eher ein freundschaftliches familiäres Verhältnis anstatt das typische klassische distanzierte Verhältnis. Von Grammatik bis hin zu Sprichwörten, informale Sprache usw. haben wir alles gelernt. Die Schule ist außerdem immer auf persönliche Abwesenheiten eingegangen und war sehr flexibel. Es war eine wunderbare Zeit und ich komme gerne mal wieder zu Besuch!! Gracias por todo 🫶🏼
