SIERRA DE GUADARRAMA
For all of those looking to spend a few days enjoying themselves whilst learning and practising Spanish in a unique environment surrounded by mountains, culture and history, we have put together our Sierra de Guadarrama – World Heritage Cities Pack.
The Sierra de Guadarrama is a mountain range which separates Castile-Leon from the province of Madrid. This area has beautiful nature reserves, great hikes for outdoor enthusiasts and a lot of history. Towns like San Lorenzo de El Escorial, where King Phillip II chose to build the Royal Monastery, can be found just 50km from the capital. Other UNESCO World Heritage Sites, like Segovia with its Alcazar fortress and its thousand-year-old Roman aqueducts or Ávila, a city with some of the best-preserved medieval walls around. Due to its position as an entry point for reaching Madrid, this area was also of great importance during the Spanish Civil War. You can still see remnants of this difficult chapter in Spanish history here today. Nature, history, culture, local cuisine… just some of the many attractions of the Sierra de Guadarrama. Join our Pack and find out for yourself!
SPANISH COURSE AND METHODOLOGY
The linguistic immersion of our Sierra de Guadarrama - World Heritage cities Pack includes a total of 8 hours of Spanish classes,
carried out by trained teachers with a wide experience of teaching Spanish as a foreign language.
This course builds reading and listening comprehension and encourages interaction between students using dynamic exercises and texts that perfectly complement the other recreational activities run during the rest of the day. Lessons are designed so that the students will have the opportunity to improve their knowledge of the Spanish language as well as the Spanish culture. In the lessons, various grammar aspects are addressed, focusing also on expanding vocabulary and encouraging discussion to build student confidence when expressing themselves in Spanish.
The educational programme has been designed by qualified teachers with extensive experience in the educational field and is directed at Spanish language students with an intermediate (B1-B2) or advanced (C1-C2) level. Lower level classes can also be arranged.
ACCOMMODATION
We have chosen San Lorenzo de El Escorial as the destination for our Sierra de Guadarrama Pack. A quiet town immersed in history, in a prime location and ideal for a language immersion programme. Participants will stay in a 3-star hotel in the town centre, just a few metres from the Monastery.
