Learn Spanish in Madrid
Linguaschools Madrid
Linguaschools Madrid is part of the Linguaschools Spanish language school network and offers Spanish courses in the centre of Madrid for adults and young adults from around the world. The school combines intensive Spanish courses, long-term study options, evening courses, university pathway programs, accommodation and cultural activities with the personal atmosphere of a small boutique-style school.
MADRID
Madrid is Spain’s capital, but it often feels more local and lived-in than many visitors expect. It is a city of neighbourhoods, plazas, parks, museums, tapas bars and everyday Spanish life, making it a strong destination for students who want to practise Spanish outside the classroom.
Unlike cities where the visitor experience is concentrated around a few famous sights, Madrid rewards time. Stay for a week and you can visit the Prado, Retiro Park, the Royal Palace and the old streets around La Latina. Stay for several months and you will start to find your own cafés, markets, routes, classmates and favourite corners of the city.

Spanish courses in Madrid
Linguaschools Madrid offers Spanish courses for different levels, goals and time commitments, from short intensive courses to longer study programs. The courses are designed mainly for adult learners, including international students, young professionals, Erasmus students, expats, digital nomads and long-term students who want a structured but personal Spanish learning experience in Madrid.
Students can choose group courses with 20 or 30 lessons per week, semi-intensive courses, private lessons and university pathway programs.
Classes are taught by qualified native Spanish-speaking teachers and follow a communicative, teacher-led immersion approach. Teachers adapt the pace and focus of the class to the level, rhythm and learning needs of the group, while keeping students actively using Spanish from the beginning.
Evening Spanish courses are also available for expats, Erasmus students, digital nomads and international residents who live, work or study in Madrid and want to improve their Spanish outside regular daytime course hours.
For students planning to stay in Spain for several months, Linguaschools Madrid also offers long-term Spanish course options that may be suitable for student visa purposes. Students booking a visa-eligible course can receive personalised guidance on course documentation, timing and the practical steps involved in preparing their Spanish student visa application.

Madrid, 28014, Carrera de San Jerónimo, 5
I spent a full year studying with lingua schools in Madrid and went from A1 (with a little Duolinguo and Dreaming Spanish vocabulary) to C1 classes. In that time I was taught by various teachers all of whom were knowledgeable, fun and had their own unique ways of approaching each theme and expanding on the material. There was also flexibility to redo levels to really get to grips with anything tha

I already live in Madrid and spoke some Spanish, but I really needed to rebuild my confidence when speaking. I did most of my sessions with Vero, who was absolutely fantastic! She helped me immensely i

This is a very good school in a fantastic location (Puerta del Sol) in Madrid city center. My wife and I signed up for the intensive course (20 hours per week) for a total of 16 weeks. After taking the placement exam, we started with the last 2 weeks of the A1 class, followed by 7 weeks of A2 class, and another 7 weeks of B1 class. The staff and teachers were super-caring and very accommodating w

Cultural activities in Madrid
Learning Spanish in Madrid is not only about the classroom. Linguaschools Madrid organises cultural activities throughout the year, helping students practise Spanish, meet other international students and experience the city beyond the usual tourist routes.
Activities can include tapas nights, museum visits, neighbourhood walks, language exchanges, flamenco or dance activities, food and market experiences, and weekend excursions to places near Madrid. The program is organised locally, so students can discover Madrid in a more personal way while using Spanish in real situations outside class.
Madrid is especially good for this kind of cultural immersion. The city has a lively local rhythm, with plazas, cafés, museums, parks and neighbourhoods where students can keep practising Spanish long after class has finished.
