"The school was very good. I have met a lot of sympathic people again, teachers and students, in a nice environment. I also worked a lot and I think that I made a lot of progress. I started with speaking a little bit of Spanish for the first time. I have to continue study Spanish in France. I will come back another day to finish where I started. I loved Granada. The city was very well with a lot of history and culture. I visited the Alhambra en Albaícin and both were magnificent. I also went to Sierra Nevada, I skied a little but, but the weather was bad. I have to return another time to see the mountaint with the sun and the blue sky. I also went to Malaga and Marbella in the weekends with my car and it was a marvelous weekend. I visited the old town of Marbella and the old town of Mijas aswell. Those two are very beautiful. I especially loved the nightlife and Tapasbars of Granada. Every night I went to the bars. I drank Spanish beer and eated tapas, ham, cheese, tortillas, pealles etc. The environment in the bars was perfect.

"After I finished my degree in Hispanish Philology in Barcelona, I decided to specialize myself in teaching Spanish as a foreign language. I got information from different Institutes who provided courses for teachers and I chose to study at Imsol, because it´s an accredited centre for Instituto Cervantes, also satisfying high level standards. The guarantee that the training would be profesional convinced me to move from Barcelona to Granada. Also, Imsol is located in the heart of the city centre that captured me from the first moment; Granada is a magical enclave, where the study becomes pleasent, the whole city is surrounded by culture and history, of art and bohemian. My experience with Inmsol was unbeatable, And It will keep one of the best memories of my life in Andalusia. The course that I carried out also opened me doors to work as a teacher. In fact I was able to work as a teacher in one of the most presticious school in Andalusia with this diploma. Thanks a lot for your professionality and humanity, a big hug for everyone who makes Imsol such a great school. Laura Mozota Martínez"

"When I went to the course, I couldn´t speak Spanish, but during the course I started to speak Spanish and I felt better. The classes were very funny. During the course, we learned Spanish through games, excursions etc. The teachers are very profesional, they are very good with students and helped us a lot. The school has a central location and is close to the beach. It´s better to learn Spanish in Spain, because you have to speak Spanish here, no one can speak your language, this is the reason why you advance your level very fast. I like Spain very much and I like to come here another year again".

"Be in Granada and know the Alhambre were realizations of my dream, but not as important as the fact of passing 2 offical exams (one about business and one about tourism). I will never forget the kindness of many Granadians and the Imsol team, they were always friendly and thouhtfull. I could share many information about my city (Santos) and my country (Brazil). Everyone at Inmsol is wonderfully professional. One more time "Muchos Gracias". Greetings from Brazil, Gabriel".

"I stayed in Granada for 4 months. I admire the city and the school. The teachers are very good and are good trained. When I went to the school, I couldnñt speak Spanish, after 4 months of training I learned very well. I didn´t think I could learn a language in 4 months, but it´s possible in the school, thank you for everything teachers. The classes are playful and fun. The books that you need can be obtain at the school. There are a lot of films and books, which you can bring to your home and watch. They also organise trips to other cities. There are lessons with free additional. One time a week there are lessons about art, cinema, historie. The teachers helps us with every subject. I met people from different countries. I did not need to visit other cities, because the world seems to be Granada, people can find the world in Granada. I would go back there again. They welcomed me very well the first day and, although i did not know Spanish, I didn´t had any problems. I could say so much more, but in generel everything was perfect. My advise is to stay longer to get to know the Spanish culture"
