What schools and students are saying

“This is a fantastic course. I am teaching this course in a secondary school to Year 12 students and have. mix of ability in the class from students who started with no Spanish at all to those who are studying Spanish for A-level. The course is very practical, interesting to teach and with a great variety of activities to engage students, no matter what level they are at. The material is very current and the skills learnt will be extremely useful in the workplace. I can really see this course taking off. Employers will love it!”
