Courses in Murcia

The Leaving Certificate course in Murcia is composed of 25 lessons per week: 20 general Spanish lessons with 5 additional Leaving Certificate preparation lessons that focus on mastering lexical structures and grammar, as well as communication and study skills. Lessons are Monday to Friday from 10:00 to 14:30 in groups of about 6 students. The duration of the course is 1-4 weeks.

The general Spanish lessons are focused on creating a solid foundation and strengthening any prior skills. Students will learn to communicate effectively in Spanish through activities - learning to navigate everyday situations such as shopping, standard telephone conversations and more. They will tackle reading comprehension, as well as practice writing texts of different types.

As a whole, the Leaving Certificate course aims to improve critical thinking skills, and verbal expression through activities like debates and presentations. Real exam questions will be given to better prepare students for what’s ahead, and a final assessment will be conducted to assess the student’s progress and readiness ahead of their Leaving Certificate exam.

Individual classes are available at an extra cost if the student would benefit from additional lessons to feel confident and prepared for their exam

*This course is designed for students who have A1 to B1 proficiency in Spanish.

Accommodation

Students will stay with a local Host Family during their time in Murcia. Staying with a host family allows greater immersion during the course while providing a warm and supportive environment during the student’s time abroad. Leaving Certificate students will benefit greatly from the opportunity to interact more directly with the local culture as they improve their Spanish skills — making memories and gaining cultural practical language on this academic endeavour. Single rooms can come with either half board or full board options — with half board including breakfast and dinner while full board includes three meals a day.

Double room options are only available to students travelling together but can be on a half or full board basis as well.

Activities

Students will have the opportunity to experience Murcia in all its beauty by engaging in school-organized activities and excursions. All activities and tours are conducted in Spanish - mixing fun and learning to further engage students. Activities provide greater opportunity for socialisation with peers, brining students together to make new friendships and memories. And with the stress that may come with exam preparation, some exploring in the sun brings the boost needed to stay motivated. Some activities do have a small cost, but many are completely free.

Activities and excursions vary on a weekly basis, but some that may be available to students include:
- Guided tour of the Cathedral of Murcia - a stunning Gothic building with magnificent works of art.
- An excursion to Cabo de Palos and Cartagena
- Pottery, cooking and Salsa dancing workshops
- Hiking and rafting
