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.

Real Madrid

Real Madrid is the world’s most glamorous football team. Just take a glance in the trophy room and you’ll understand how successful they have been. Tour the stadium and you’ll appreciate how many superstars have played here. And if you’re lucky, attend a game to experience the white-hot atmosphere.

Royal Palace

The world’s largest palace stands elegantly in central Madrid. Walking past its baroque facade is one of the main city highlights. Head inside and you’ll find hundreds of elegant rooms and many old stories.

Museum Triangle

Madrid’s trilogy of art museums is world famous. Explore a millennia of Spanish and Flemish art in the Prado. Admire a diverse and once private collection at Thyssen-Bornemisza. Then see contemporary greats like Picasso at the Reina Sofia.

Retiro Park

Walking through Retiro Park is like walking through royal palace gardens. It’s a stunning green space, perfect for a relaxed afternoon with friends, ideal when you need a quiet space to go over your notes and practice your Spanish reading skills.

La Latina district

The oldest part of Madrid is where you will spend many evenings. Get lost on the cobbled streets, hop between tapas bars and small boutiques, and admire an assortment of Spanish architecture that’s had a facelift during the last few years.

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.

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.

(Translated by Google) Linguaschools is very centrally located and only a few minutes from public transport. After class, there is plenty of time to explore the area and Madrid. (Original) Linguaschools ist sehr zentral gelegen und nur wenige Minuten von den öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln erreichbar. Nach dem Unterricht hat man genügend Zeit die Gegend und Madrid auszukundschaften.

I took a 1 week Intensive 20 + 5 course. Both group and individual classes were very good. The teachers were very friendly and supportive. During my individual classes, I could have practiced the parts of a grammar where I was lacking. The teachers were very flexible and explained me whatever I asked them. I feel that with this course I boosted my spanish skills. I can fully recommend!

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.

FAQ

Was Linguaschools Madrid formerly Spaneasy?

Yes. Linguaschools Madrid continues the school previously known as Spaneasy, now as part of the Linguaschools Spanish language school network.

The school remains a small boutique-style Spanish school in central Madrid, next to Puerta del Sol, offering Spanish courses for adult learners in a personal, international learning environment. Students can still expect the same local Madrid school atmosphere, now combined with the wider course organisation, accommodation options and student support of the Linguaschools network.

 

Where is Linguaschools Madrid located?

Linguaschools Madrid is located in the centre of Madrid, on Carrera de San Jerónimo, a 1-minute walk from Puerta del Sol and Sol metro station.

The school is surrounded by cafés, shops, restaurants, cultural sights and public transport connections. This makes it easy to reach from different parts of the city and practical for students who want to combine Spanish lessons with daily life in Madrid.

What type of students study at Linguaschools Madrid?

Linguaschools Madrid is mainly suited to adult learners and young adults who want to study Spanish in a personal, international school environment.

Students come from different countries and backgrounds, with different ages, Spanish levels and study goals. They include short-stay language travellers, long-term students, Erasmus and exchange students, university pathway students, exam-preparation students, expats, digital nomads and international residents.

Some students come to Madrid for a short Spanish course, while others already live in the city or plan to stay for several months. The exact student mix varies by season, course type and Spanish level.

Can I take evening Spanish lessons at Linguaschools Madrid?

Yes. Linguaschools Madrid offers evening Spanish lessons for students who live, work or study in Madrid and want to improve their Spanish outside regular daytime course hours.

The evening group course is called Extensive 4. It is a semi-intensive Spanish course with 4 lessons per week, designed for students who want to keep learning Spanish alongside work, studies or daily life in Madrid.

This option is especially useful for expats, Erasmus students, digital nomads and international residents who want a regular Spanish course with a lighter weekly schedule.

Can Linguaschools Madrid help students who need a study visa for Spain?

Yes. Long-term students who need a study visa to enter Spain can receive personalised Linguaschools guidance when booking a visa-eligible Spanish course at Linguaschools Madrid.

We can provide the course documentation needed for the application, including a Letter of Acceptance, and guide students through the practical steps, timing and course requirements involved in preparing their Spanish student visa application.

Visa requirements depend on the student’s nationality, place of residence, course length and the Spanish embassy or consulate where they apply. Linguaschools cannot guarantee visa approval, as the final decision is always made by the Spanish authorities.

Can school groups study at Linguaschools Madrid?

Yes. Linguaschools Madrid welcomes customised school groups, university groups and other closed groups, depending on the group profile, dates and program requirements.

Group programs can combine Spanish lessons with cultural activities, accommodation and other services in Madrid. Lessons can be organised for a closed group, so students study together with their own classmates, with a program adapted to the group’s level, age and learning goals.

Teachers, schools, universities and agencies can contact Linguaschools for a customised group proposal.
