Actually, learning Spanish is just my excuse to visit Taronja! Not only a language school, but a language experience! Beautiful people, beautiful classrooms, fun lessons, continuous and exciting cultural events, and in the coolest city in Spain!

Last year I attended a Spanish course in Valencia. Before I made my decision where to go to improve my language I had got very good references about Taronja school. I did not hesitate to go there. My experience with educational process, free time activities at school was very positive. All teaches were well-trained, friendly and very skillful. The classes were full of fun and plenty of new information. Tuesday paella parties were great. All the food prepared by Fernando those days and during the cuisine classes was really delicious! The cultural lessons, walking tours were very interesting. However, the best discovery I made in Valencia thanks to Taronja was the Micro Theatre, which I will certainly visit each time I am in this marvelous city again! I want to thank a lot all school staff for their enthusiasm and kind support! Looking forward to seeing you again in September! Natalia (Slovakia)

Taronja Valencia is a great place for learning Spanish and experiencing the Spanish culture! Teachers at the school are excellent, and the school organises many fun activities! I’d love to come back here in the near future! ☺️

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 :)))))

I spent a fantastic week at Taronja in May 2019. The booking process was really straightforward (and I appreciated being able to sort out my accommodation through the school too) albeit a little embarrassing when recording a video of myself to have my level assessed 🙈. The booking information I received indicated that someone would be there to greet me at the accommodation upon arrival, but this wasn't the case – I didn't mind though because I'm a grown up and don't really need looking out for like that. The teachers and supporting staff were really friendly and helpful. The classes were challenging and taught entirely in Spanish, which I think is really beneficial and, for the level I was at (~B1), falling back to English shouldn't really be necessary. In the week I was there we alternated between days studying grammar (the present subjunctive) and more 'relaxing' days where we dived deeper into other topics such as ser/estar and por/para (though I would have been happier doing even more grammar studies, but maybe I'm just a glutton for punishment). I think what really stood out about my week at Taronja was the effort put into the social activities. There were things to do every evening and a weekend excursion had been organized too (but unfortunately I had to fly home that day and couldn't attend), so even if you arrive as a solo learner/traveller, you'll be able to find people to hang out with fairly quickly. In case it isn't clear, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend studying at Taronja, however I feel that attending for 1 week simply wasn't enough. Many of the people I met were staying for any amount of time from 3 weeks to 3 months. It's for this reason that I intend to return to Taronja next month for 2 weeks to try and really press on with improving my Spanish (and escape the miserable Dutch summer).
