If you want to improve your level of Spanish quickly, then look no further and book an intensive course with Malaga Plus. The additional lessons give you the opportunity to get more practice in using the language while still having time for leisure activities in the afternoon.
The first four lessons of each day are the same as the standard Spanish course and therefore focus on integrated skills work using our main textbook, AULA, from Difusión.

- Improve oral, listening, reading and writing skills.

Didactic material for the intensive course
Our main textbook, AULA, from Diffusion Publishing, allows students to learn the language using real-life contexts with lively and engaging reading and listening texts, as well as stimulating activities and regular assessments so that they can see and measure their progress. Each level is designed to be completed in 16 weeks, as during that time the student can cover the entire level and should then automatically advance to the next level as long as their attendance is 80% or higher.
The books are offered on loan, which means that the student can use it during school hours but cannot take it home or write in it. In case the student wants to buy it, the price is 25 € and includes a cd-audio with the class auditions and an access to the online portal for one year to practice and do exercises at home. Ask for your keys with the purchase of the book!
