Our school in Palma de Mallorca

Palma de Mallorca has long established its reputation as one of the most popular city break destinations in the world, and the eclectic mix of historic architecture, contemporary cuisine, vibrant entertainment options, and top-of-the-range shops make it easy to see why!

Our language school in Palma de Mallorca enjoys a fantastic location in the heart of the city’s historic centre. La Seu, the magnificent cathedral, is just a few minutes’ walk away and there are many culturally interesting sites and buildings in the immediate area, as well as cafés, boutiques and museums.

The school itself is housed in a 16th-century building and has 7 air-conditioned classrooms, a student lounge area, kitchen facilities (fridge and microwave) and student support desk. There is also free Wi-Fi to help you keep in touch with friends and family back home.

Palma de Mallorca

A Spanish course in Palma de Mallorca will allow you to experience the true spirit of the Balearics; Palma is a beautiful city that has managed to avoid becoming your average tourist trap. A short walk around the old town will present a myriad of architectural styles, enabling visitors to get a sense of the history of Palma going back over 1,000 years. Many ancient buildings have been restored recently and now house cafés, hotels and restaurants, giving them a new lease of life.

The 13th-century cathedral is the jewel in Palma’s crown. A behemoth of Gothic architecture, it is pretty much impossible to miss as the 44-metre nave dominates the city skyline. From here, the promenade is just a short stroll away, and it is easy to lose an hour or two sitting at a seaside café and watching the yachts come in and out of the harbour.

In recent years Palma has become a chic city break destination, and there are no shortage of upmarket boutiques nestled in amongst the more traditional stores. If shopping isn’t your thing, take in a museum (there are at least ten within a ten-minute walk of the school!), or gaze upon a Picasso at Es Baluard, Palma’s contemporary art museum.

If you fancy an afternoon on the beach, there are no fewer than six that surround Palma Bay. Ca’n Pere Antoni beach is the main beach in Palma, and is also the closest to the language school. It is possible to walk here in around 15-20 minutes.

Those who prefer to stay active while vacationing could consider hiring a bike as the promenade stretches for miles and is a delight to explore. And, after all that fresh air, why not treat yourself to a cocktail or aperitif in one of the city’s many rooftop bars.

Courses in Palma de Mallorca

Available courses

    The Intensive course of 20 lessons per week is the ‘go-to’ option for language learners who want to strike a nice balance between study and free time. Lessons are usually held 09:30-13:30 Monday to Friday (including breaks) and include all aspects of linguistic study. As is the case at all of our schools, lessons are held on a total immersion basis and your native Spanish speaking teacher will ensure that you interact as much as possible to make the most of the time you have available, whether that be just a week or a longer period. Before starting a course all students with an existing knowledge of the language will take an assessment test to make sure they are placed in classes with others of the same level. The lessons will be pitched accordingly, and you can be certain that you will always be making progress as you work through the exercises set by the qualified teacher.

    If you would like to tailor the content of classes to suit your own requirements exactly you could consider private lessons, either as an addition to group lessons or as a stand alone course. This one-to-one attention allows students to tackle any aspects of the language they might be struggling with as in-depth as they wish to.
