Built on the CEFR A1 descriptors and the school board Spanish curriculum, this level covers standard pronunciation, grammar foundations and a first working vocabulary across listening, speaking, reading and writing. It suits Grades 5–6 starting a second language, including students who will take IB or AP Spanish later. Locally licensed teachers set the habits early, while the material is still small enough to master.
Built on the CEFR A2 descriptors and the school board Spanish curriculum, this level firms up the basics and builds the four skills together, with vocabulary taught in themed sets students can actually use. It suits Grades 7–8 who want a strong second language on the record before senior Spanish. Our teachers keep the grammar sequence tight so nothing is skipped and then quietly revisited in Grade 11.
Built on the CEFR B1 descriptors and the school board Spanish curriculum, this level lifts vocabulary range, teaches efficient listening and reading strategy, and sharpens spoken and written expression. It suits Grades 9–10 heading for AP Spanish Language and Culture or IB Spanish B, and students eyeing languages, international business or political science. Teachers work on thinking in Spanish, not translating into it.
Built on the CEFR B2 descriptors and the senior school board Spanish curriculum, this level consolidates everything a student has learned, then pushes idiomatic speech and writing and high-level listening and reading technique. It suits Grades 11–12 sitting AP Spanish Language and Culture or IB Spanish B, and applicants to language, international business and Latin American studies programs. The teaching is close to a native-speaker standard because the teachers are.
Absolute Beginner | Spanish A1 | Spanish A2 | Spanish B1
Built on the CEFR ladder from A1 to B1, this adult program is designed by local teachers with long Spanish teaching experience and split into fine-grained levels, so anyone interested in the language and the culture can start from nothing with pronunciation and grammar. Finish every level and you will hold around 2,000 words of Spanish, handle everyday and travel conversation, and put your own view across.
SIELE | DELE A2–B1–B2
Designed by local teachers with deep SIELE and DELE coaching experience, this program widens vocabulary and makes the core grammar and tense system second nature. It raises all four skills together and adds exam technique, so students speak with more confidence, read and listen with more accuracy, write to the marking criteria, and pass.
Spanish teacher
Our Spanish teachers and course development team design the levels and course types from the local Spanish curriculum and years of teaching experience. Students build a genuine foundation, learn how to study a language, and end up with Spanish that sounds like Spanish.
We invite parents in regularly so you always know where your child stands. Teachers report on the work, the goals and the plan for the term, and talk through what you can do at home to keep the learning light.
After taking the AP Spanish course here I had a much clearer picture of what the exam asks and how to study for it. The teacher drilled reading, writing, listening and speaking against the AP Spanish priorities, which lifted my Spanish overall and left me far more confident going in.
I chose the adult Spanish course here to prepare for the SIELE exam. My teacher built a study plan around my level and pushed listening, reading, writing and speaking technique. The structure made my study time count for much more.
My daughter's school results improved noticeably after she started high school Spanish tutoring here. The teacher works on exactly the grammar, vocabulary and exam points she needs, and her confidence with Spanish has grown steadily.
