WHO ARE WE?

Our love for travelling, languages and meeting people from all over the world inspired us to create the Elcano Spanish School in Alicante. From the first day we started teaching Spanish, we were clear that we wanted to bring our Spanish programs to all corners of the world and grow as a Hispanic community.

The staff of the Elcano Alicante Spanish School is created by experts in the teaching of Spanish ELE( SPANISH AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE). We are friendly and empathetic professionals who work so you can learn everything about our language, culture, customs and experiences… everything that interests you. We are enterprising and active using all learning dynamics. The skills achieved during our journey, makes everything easier for the student and is reflected in the high percentage of students who pass official DELE exams (Diploma Español como lengua extranjera) at the Instituto Cervantes.

The smile and joy in our Spanish school make your lessons enjoyable yet effective. The light and life offered by our environment and the different options offered by the school throughout the school calendar will make this the experience of your life.

You will be trained in the Spanish language in a close and familiar context, where the day passes in a peaceful way while the good atmosphere and streets adorned with terraces and modern restaurants sprout at night. The beach of Postiguet is located a few minutes from the school and the mountain is easily accessible, within reach of everyone throughout the year.

Elcano Spanish School in Alicante is located in the heart of Alicante and it offers a wide range of language courses, especially Spanish for foreigners.
