Moutasim is 27 years old, from Jordan, and has a passion for exploring new places, learning languages and meeting people from different cultures. Wanting to fully immerse himself in everyday life in Spain and open the door to new opportunities, he decided to make Spanish an important part of his journey.
That decision brought him to Granada, a city that immediately won him over with its beauty, history and unique energy. After researching the best places to study Spanish in the city, Moutasim chose Linguaschools because of its excellent reputation, positive student reviews and high-quality language programme.
We spoke with him about learning Spanish, his experience at Linguaschools Granada and what has made his time in the city so special.
Could you tell us a little about yourself and your experience in Granada so far?
My experience in Granada has been incredible so far. It’s a city full of life and history, with a unique energy that makes you feel welcome from the very first day.
For me, Granada is one of the most beautiful cities I’ve ever seen or heard about. That was one of the main reasons I decided to come here to study Spanish, and living here has only confirmed that I made the right choice.
Why did you decide to learn Spanish, and how has the course helped you improve?
I decided to learn Spanish because I wanted to fully integrate into everyday life in Spain and open myself up to better opportunities.
Since starting the course, I’ve noticed that my Spanish has improved very quickly. I feel much more confident speaking, expressing my ideas and communicating with people in everyday situations.
The small class sizes have also made a big difference. Because there are fewer students, the teachers can give everyone more individual attention. At the same time, we all have plenty of opportunities to participate and speak Spanish during each lesson.
Before coming, my expectations were high, but the experience has completely exceeded them. The atmosphere at the school is very welcoming, and the progress I’ve made with the language is even better than I expected.
Why did you choose Linguaschools Granada?
I found Linguaschools while searching for the best options for studying Spanish in Granada.
The most important things for me were the school’s excellent reputation, the positive reviews from other students and the quality of its Spanish programme. After studying here, I can say that the experience has lived up to those expectations and even gone beyond them.
The people at the school have also made my experience particularly special. I adore all my teachers and the director. Pilar, Ana, María, Nuria, Natalia, Laura and Alicia have all helped make my time here something I’ll always remember.
What did you think about the school’s cultural activities?
The cultural activities are great. They’re a really fun way to learn more about the local culture, discover special places around Granada and connect with classmates outside the classroom.
For me, that combination of studying Spanish in class and then experiencing the culture and city in everyday life makes learning much more enjoyable.
What have you enjoyed most about living and studying in Granada?
For me, the best thing is Granada itself. The city has so many green spaces and gardens, and there’s always something new to discover.
One place I would definitely recommend visiting is the area around Huétor Vega. It’s a lovely place to explore and another example of how much Granada and its surroundings have to offer.
But some of my best memories aren’t just about particular places. They’re also about the people I’ve met and the warm atmosphere I’ve experienced at the school. That’s what has made my stay here so memorable.
What would you say to someone thinking about studying Spanish at Linguaschools Granada?
