10 good reasons (+ one more) to choose Tía Tula as your Spanish School in Salamanca

We offer high quality teaching, adapted to the needs of every student. To achieve this, we contact the students ahead of time to determine their Spanish level, assign them to the right group, and establish the content of the class material. We use different textbooks depending on the requirements of each group, and complement it with our own material. Our head of studies prepares an individual academic plan for each student, which guarantees the most out of their stay at Tía Tula. We can provide this individual attention to our students and their academic plan because we are a small school, with a maximum capacity of 64 students at any one time.

Our teaching staff is composed of experienced philologists licensed in teaching Spanish as a foreign language. They are friendly, interested and concerned about their students. They really go far and beyond the call of duty, and are always ready to help with whatever the students might need.

The administrative/secreterial staff works hard to make the students feel at home at our school and in Salamanca. They assist them with whatever they may need, give them information about the activities offered in Salamanca as well as the ones offered by Tía Tula, help them plan trips when necessary, etc... Since we are a small school, our staff knows all our students personally which results in a close, warm and familiar relationship.

Aside from the closeness and familiar atmosphere encountered at Tía Tula, almost all of our students comment on the great organization of our school in general: the academics, the extracurricular activities, the accommodation, and the overall management.

Week after week we provide a new list of dynamic and imaginative extracurricular activities, aimed at finding new ways for the students to learn Spanish and put their new knowledge into practice, as well as to integrated them into everyday life and Spanish culture. These activities are mostly free and are lots of fun, mainly due to the close familiar relationship between our students and our staff.

Accommodation is selected carefully by visiting all potential host families and monitoring the student's satisfaction during their stay. If at any time, a student is in a problematic situation not due to a misunderstanding that can easily be resolved, we quickly provide alternative accommodation. At the end of their stay the students fill out a survey of satisfaction about their host family. Their opinion is fundamental in the evaluation and rating of the host families.
