I was able to have classes taught only in Spanish and be surrounded by Spanish at all times in the day. It was easy to communicate with people after I had been there for a while.

I had just spent 4 months in Portugal so althought originally my Spanish was much better I spent the 1st week trying to speak Potuguese! A week of flat hunting soon sorted that out and from then on I got back on track. Teachers are really friendly and try to mix speaking spanish and any other language they know to help you out.

Because there were a lot of Americans in our group, we tended to speak English amoung ourselves and it was hard to reach out to Spaniards in order to speak the local language.
