Description

If you are a Spanish teacher, both for children and adults, and you feel that the time has come to renew yourself, share experiences with other teachers and live an authentic cultural immersion in the north of Spain, this course is for you".

As professionals dedicated to teaching Spanish as a second language, we know that we often miss having some time to recycle ourselves, to learn from other professionals, to discover new resources and why not? to learn about new cultures in Spanish-speaking countries. For this reason, after more than fifteen years of experience in the sector, we have created this course for Spanish teachers that combines an in-depth study of different aspects of teaching ELE with an agenda of lessons and activities that will allow you to discover the richness of northern Spain (and Basque culture).

A week for you: to improve as a professional and also to rest, have fun and discover the beauty and gastronomy of a city like San Sebastian. Do not hesitate, you deserve this opportunity.
