There are many to choose,so probably nobody would have problems to find something for himself.The quality is very high,but the teachers are easygoing.

Personal comments
I think it would be better to have some more obligatory work,like small tests during the course not only a big exam at the end.

Final comments
Spanish people are very friendly,always easy to work with them,if they notice that you are from other country they are very ready to help-the like it.Here it´s easy to travel,but hich-hiking is forbiden.Spain is still one of the cheapest country in europe,so you don´t need so much money.You will surely like the nightnife here,it´s unbelivable.
