Plaça del Poeta Boscà · La Barceloneta · since 2009
Learn Spanish. And a little Catalan, because you're here.
A small summer school two streets from the sea. Groups of four to eight, native teachers, new courses every Monday — and a market, a beach and a vermouth bar all within three minutes' walk.
4–8 students per class/Start any Monday, June–September/From €85 a week/Cultural activity included every Friday
Three ways to spend your mornings
Pick the one that fits how long you're staying. You can switch track at the end of any week — most people do.
A day here, roughly
09:30Class. Talking, mostly. Grammar arrives when you need it, not before.
11:15Coffee in the plaça with whoever's around. This counts as homework.
13:30Out. Market, beach, nap — the afternoon is yours.
19:00Conversation club, if you want it. Two euros, one drink, no textbooks.
What people said afterwards

Book online, or just walk in before 10am and we'll place you in a class the same morning. Bring nothing. We have pencils.
Everything starts on a Monday and runs Monday to Friday. Prices are per week, all materials and the Friday activity included. No registration fee.

The people at the front of the room
Six of us, all native speakers, all living within twenty minutes of the plaça. Between us: Spanish, Catalan, English, French, Italian, Portuguese and a lot of patience.
The barri is the second classroom
One activity every week is included in your course. The rest are optional, cheap, and usually end at the beach.
Everything within four minutes
The school sits on the north side of Plaça del Poeta Boscà, beside the market. Hover the dots.

A word about August
Barceloneta fills up. Host families and the good hostels go three to four weeks ahead in August, so if you know your dates, tell us early — even before you pay for the course.
