If I can learn Spanish then anyone can! In a space of 6 weeks I went from saying "sin comentarios" in class to speaking short sentences with lovely regular, irregular and reflexive verbs ?. Teachers and administration staff are professional, friendly and supportive. I am going to miss my "chitty chats" with the Reception desk ?

Spending eight weeks learning Spanish in Valencia has been a rewarding experience. When I first arrived here, I had a patchy understanding of how basic Spanish grammar works, which gave me a false sense of confidence coming into the country. I was placed into a class that was far too advanced for my level, and I quickly discovered that my listening and speaking skills were practically non-existent. It is fair to say that I was completely baffed in my first week of lessons. I eventually moved down two groups, so I could work on my listening and speaking skills. This level was much more enjoyable, as I wasn’t in a permanent state of confusion. I have noticed my progress continue to grow steadily over the weeks. Now, I feel like I have enough Spanish to get by on my own and develop my skill independently. Understanding street chit-chat is becoming easier, watching Spanish T.V. is becoming more enjoyable, and I can usually interpret written texts. The teachers at Taronja are young, fun and competent people. Rather than forcing us to fill out boring and repetitive exercise sheets, they make learning more enjoyable by providing innovative activities and games to keep the classroom engaged. The timetable is constantly rotating, so we can benefit from various styles and techniques of each teacher. Valencia is a truly beautiful city in a variety of different ways. The centre of the city is built around two lively squares, made up of old monuments, statues, restaurants, and constant buzz of passing tourists. The surrounding streets are full of character and are brought to life by the detail of their design, the classical Valencian balconies, and the numerous restaurants. The Turia park is another incredible feature of the city. It used to be a large river flowing through the centre of the city, but people decided to drain it after serious floods in the 1950s. Now, it is a riverbed, which has been converted into a lush garden, where people go to escape the city, exercise and relax.

2-week intensive course for beginners I made a huge progress during the two weeks (2016) full of modern multimedia classes, cooking lessons, sport&trips, city tours, movies and so many opportunities to listen&speak Spanish during lunch/dinner etc. The support and friendliness of the staff was amazing. Great location in the city center as well.

Highly recommended language school to learn Spanish in Valencia! A great range of cultural & social activities as well as parties & events appropriate to the time, season & location. This is my second time here studying Spanish & I have not only improved my confidence to articulate myself both written & verbally, but been open to new ideas & new cultures & perspectives from around the Spanish speaking world- muchos gracias!

Оно того стоит Были каникулы в университете, и решила на недельку поехать в Испанию,заодно и испанский получить. Очень классный опыт, даже за неделю я почувствовала, как мой испанский с почти нуля дотянули до основ. Очень вдохновляющие, разные совершенно люди из разных стран были в классах и на мероприятиях, много классных знакомств случилось. Если хотите много практиковать испанский, то вперёд. Ещё в семью заселитесь - не будете говорить ни на русском ни английском вообще. Я общалась с хост мамой с помощью переводчика на телефоне
Учителя преподают не скучно. Мероприятия не дают сидеть дома.
Единственный минус то, что иногда учишься по вечерам, мне было очень тяжело.
И, конечно, самое грустное - уехать после одной недели. Кто-то приезжает на 3 месяца, кто-то на 6,кто-то переехал совсем. А ты погружаешься в эту атмосферу и уезжаешь через неделю. 🙁

Ein wirklich sehr lustiger und lehrreicher Sprachaufenthalt in Valencia - un viaje inolvidable 🙂 Ich war letztes Jahr insgesamt zehn Wochen in Valencia und acht davon verbrachte ich in der Sprachschule Taronja. Dies war meine vierte Sprachreise, jedoch die erste in Valencia, deshalb kann ich auch behaupten, dass diese eine der besten Sprachschulen ist, die man finden kann. Sie ist nicht nur, meines Erachtens, günstig sondern auch wirklich strukturiert aufgebaut. Die Besucher dieser Schule waren sehr international und man konnte sich kulturell sehr gut austauschen, da man nicht nur in der Schule zusammen war sondern auch in der Freizeit. Die Schule hat diverse Veranstaltung, bei denen alle recht herzlich eingeladen sind, allem Voran die Paella-Dienstage, da wird nämlich bei lässiger Location gratis Paella angeboten und man lernt spielerisch neue Leute kennen. Mit einigen bin ich noch immer befreundet bzw. man hört und sieht sich via WhatsApp.
Da ich weiter dranbleiben werde, Spanisch zu lernen, ist es für mich sofort klar gewesen, dass ich heuer wieder die Taronja besuchen werde. Vielleicht treffe ich ja heuer sogar einen, der meine Bewertung gelesen hat in Valencia - würde mich freuen 🙂
Ich hoffe, ich konnte euch mit meiner Bewertung helfen und dass ihr auch so eine geile Zeit, wie ich sie hatte, in Valencia verbringen könnt.
P.s.: Für alle die die la tomatina (Das Tomatenfest, wo man sich einfach aus Spaß mit Tomaten bewirft) nur aus dem Fernseher kennt, habt ihr auch hier die Möglichkeit Ende August dabei zu sein, denn die Schule organisiert Bus und Verpflegung 🙂
Hasta luego :)))))

The best school experience i ever had! Everybody was friendly, the classes were a lot of fun and the learning curve was incredible. The social activities were super fun (friends of mine stayed at another school and they were always jealous) and very good to get to know all other students, Valencia and Spanish traditions. Paella fiesta every Tuesday is one of the best! ¡Me voy a Volver!

This is a really good school for learning spanish and its great for all agegroups. They also organize a lot of fun and intresting events/excursions outside school so you can meet people and practise your spanish. I recommend it! 🌞
