What I expected

I spent 2 weeks in Séville in september 2025, in a senior group. The teacher was very professionnal and knew how to keep lessons interesting. I is what I expected because I wanted to improve my spanish and have fun too. Besides, Clic organized a wonderful culturel program.

Learned so much in just one week!

I had a great time learning Spanish with CLIC in Málaga. I'd like to thank my teacher, Maria, in particular for her enthusiasm and great way of teaching. I'm very happy to have picked up a basic level of Spanish in just one week and would love to come back to improve. Would highly recommend CLIC!

Disappointing experience

I took part in a pre arrival assessment however when i arrived two friends from England were in the same class - they are a much lower level than my husband and I. A woman from the US was also in our class and she was at a very low level. For me there were more people in the class (9) than I though we were lead to believe (6-8), too much time was wasted on games and lack of technology, overall whilst the teacher and the entertainment coordinator were enthusiastic I was very disappointed with the level of tuition.

I hoped to learn more

I have to say I was somewhat disappointed. The schools information suggests that the class sizes will be 6-8 people maximum in each class and mine had 9. I was also told that after the interview that I would be put in a class with people of a similar standard and understanding, yet one lady was completely out of her depth and 2 other friends were very surprised to be grouped with my wife and I. To my mind this grouping was a complete mistake which did not help anybody, some felt intimidated and others restricted. I also felt we wasted time on certain activities as well. The day we went to the market we spent at least 30 minutes at the school trying to download something to our phones which could just as easily been given as a paper handout. I also felt that not much time had been spent on lesson preparation

Thank you for your feedback.

We’re sorry your class experience didn’t meet expectations. We aim for small, well-matched groups, so we’ll review our placement process to avoid mismatched skill levels.

We also appreciate your note about lesson preparation and logistical issues and will work to make materials and activities more efficient in the future.

We hope you’ll consider giving us another opportunity to provide a better experience next time.

Go for vacation first and language second

Many people - older, retired - came to have a vacation and learn a bit about the language. I preferred the reverse as I am living in Spain. Retention is not high from the methods being used. Older people learn differently as well. (I have taught English as a second language and managed 200+ Peace Corps Volunteers 23-83 years old and methods were adjusted for the ways people learn). Materials need to be updated, and organized e.g. a packet sent to students via electronic mail at the beginning of each week. There was no structure and teachers were sometimes I think wanting to entertain more than teach. It works if vacation is the main goal.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. At CLIC, our classes are always adapted to the actual level of each group, and our primary pedagogical goal is communicative practice: helping students use Spanish with purpose, fluency, and accuracy in real situations. Our lessons are not designed to “entertain,” but to learn by doing, through meaningful, assessable activities.

We understand that each learner has a personal view of how a language should be learned, and we’re sorry that your experience did not meet your individual expectations. Our teaching approach and classroom practices are described transparently on our public website, where we detail levels, content organization, and methodology.


If you need a specific approach to your understanding of Spanish class, we recommend choosing a private class next time.

We appreciate your comments and remain at your disposal to review any specific aspect of your course and keep improving.

CLIC - a high quality and service minded education provider

CLIC is very service minded, agile and very keen to meet the individual desires and demands of each student.

I was appointed an amazing teacher, and was very impressed by her ability to elegantly adapt to and follow the level I was at, building on my level and through non-stop conversation adding grammar points that I had to review. I enjoyed every lesson with her.

Amazing Experience at Clic!

Small but beautiful school, a lot of light, very clean, well organized. The staff, both teaching and admin, is amazing, super friendly and helpful. I learned a lot about the language and the culture, thanks to the school's lessons and afternoon activities, and made a lot of friends. Big thanks to everyone, looking forward to returning soon!

A fun, educational and cultural experience.

This was a fun, well conceived and planned teaching experience for a group of over 50s learning Spanish.
The lessons were brilliant, the cultural programme really good and the city of Seville - well what can I say?!
The week of Santa Semana was a real experience though if I return I’d pick a different time of year to avoid the huge crowds and the daily processions.
CLIC is a very friendly but professional organisation and I learned a lot in the classes of 2weeks there. I hope to return to another of their schools next year.

Great experience

Really good teachers. I didn't expect so many older peaople there. But there were aal age ranges. From 20 to 70. Actually also a lot in their 40s or 50s. The older ones stayed in apartements of the school, the younger ones at a hostel. That was also very nice, cause we went out together and could shares taxis. Also the cultural program is much fun. Great experience!!

Spanish for Foodies…

My husband & I enrolled in the Spanish for Foodies course in Cadiz. The week of study, cooking & cultural experience exceeded our expectations. The staff was excellent & the facility was very accommodating. CLIC International is located in a convenient area in Cadiz, with great services nearby for coffee or lunch. It was an 8 minute walk from our apartment in the lovely Old Town.

I am a beginner student of spanish

I am a beginner student of spanish. I found the atmosphere of the school, the classes and the students to be very conducive to learning. I have no complaints about my classes and am very pleased with the progress I made.

The school itself is in a great location. I used an AirBNB for my lodging which was very nice. My fellow students didn't have much good to say about their CLIC housing situation. It sounded adequate but missing what they considered essentials.

I thought the instruction materials were useful and the handouts helped as well.

Each of my teachers was excellent and fun to work with . They're obviously all very well trained and know how to keep the interest of students through some very long classes.

CELTA Course

I spent 4 weeks at Clic this summer, to do my Celta Course. Both teachers, Emily and Bélen were amazing and taught me a lot. Lessons were fun and engaging and the community of students always made me feel at ease and appreciated.
I strongly recommend doing your Celta there because the whole experience was 10/10!
Also, shoutout to Virginia who always ensured we had all the documents and information we needed!

I spend 2 weeks in this language school…

I spend 2 weeks in this language school and I really enjoyed my stay. I liked the classes but the focus was too much on grammar, so we didnt get to speak that much. The cultural programme offers many different acticities. I stayed with a host family, but it the apartment was not very clean, so the language school should check the host families more often.
