Spanish Language and Culture Immersion in Valencia, Spain

I went to EuroAce with high expectations and am happy to say that those expectations were exceeded. The staff are incredibly friendly and supportive. It was very clear that they wanted everyone to have the best experience possible. There was never a shortage of adventure as EuroAce provided weekly excursions and opportunities to meet fellow students & travelers. The excursions allow you to immerse in Spanish food and culture in ways that are unforgettable. I highly recommend EuroAce for anyone who wants a genuine experience in Spain.

Since my first contact with Euroace, they were really helpfull.
Arriving in Valencia they even offered me a shuttle to pick me up in the airport. In my first week in the city I went to see the school and they helped me with a lot of things, for example how to do the public transportation card and how to acctivate it, and where should I go to buy some things that I was looking for.
The classes and the teachers were also great and the building is really well located. The school is not big, neither the classrooms but they are organized and clean, and also they have one really cool rooftop where you can go during the break of the classes to get some fresh air and eat something, they even offer yoga lessons there!
I could notice that I was learning fast, but one problem is that there are not too many different class levels, so there is the possibility of having classes with persons that are much "worse" or "better" than you in the language, and also there are not many possibilities of schedule.
In general I really reccomend the school, I can´t think of any negative points, and also the price is fair!! The only thing the bodered me, was that I had to leave Europe yearlier because of the CoronaVirus crises, and they said that they couldn´t return me the money, the options were continue with online classes from Brazil or postpone the course to do it later. It was an specific cenario and I think that they should have considered. But besides that my experience there was awesome!!

Euroace offers several types of Spanish courses in order to reach different student profiles.
There are programs with or without an exchange, with or without an internship, with 10 or 20 hours a week, exam preparation, etc.
The structure is adequate and the teaching material is provided.
The staff is organized and attentive, promptly meeting the needs of the students.
Teachers are very well prepared and conduct classes in a light and relaxed manner. They teach the grammar associated with conversation and learning occurs naturally.

I was in Valencia to complete an internship for my senior year of college. Through Euroace, they found me a local internship site and a host family to stay with. My host family was nice, made meals for me, let me use laundry, and offered advice about the city. The staff members were all very kind and helpful with any of the questions I had ranging from work to health related. I felt overall my experience was very positive. Unfortunately it was cut short by the COVID-19 pandemic but even then, Euroace was very helpful in making sure I was able to return home safely.

Translated by Go Overseas:

The month I spent in Valencia was fantastic. It allowed me to learn the magnificent language that is Spanish, to meet many people from all over the world and to utter from the city of Valencia to the fullest. In a month you can do many things in a city, visit everything, go to the beach and party, without being stressed to do the maximum in a short time. But the one I liked the most was the kitchen, which is very good. Who goes there has to try the most traditional food: Paella, Fideuá, Orxhata and Fartones.
Also, I think that who is going to do this experience has to be alone, because it is better to learn a new language and meet new people. On the other hand, a person who goes in a city to learn a language alone is freer to do what he wants.

Original Review:

El mes que pasé en Valencia fue fantástico. Me permitió de aprender el idioma magnifico que es el español, de conocer mucha gente de todo el mundo y de profitar de la ciudad de Valencia al maximo. En un mes se puede hacer muchas cosas en una ciudad, visitar todo, ir a la playa y hacer fiesta, sin estar estresado para hacer el maximo en poco tiempo. Pero el que más me gustó fue la cocina, que es muy buena. Quien va allí tiene que probar la comida más tradicional: Paella, Fideuá, Orxhata y Fartones.
Además, creo que quien va a hacer esta experiencia tiene que ser solo, porque es mejor para aprender una nuova lengua y conoce más nueva gente. Por otra parte, una persona que va en una ciudad para aprender un idioma sola es más libre de hacer lo que quiere.

I had a great time here in Euroace. They have good support and are very friendly. My teacher Alvaro was very patient and he made everyone feel very comfortable and at ease in class. They had a lot of different options for classes in terms of times and how many you want to attend and they are flexible. They also offer an open shared working space and use of their wifi in a quiet, air conditioned area for as long as you need.
They organised different weekly activities which many people go to and its a good way to meet others. The host family arranged by Euroace for me was in a perfect location and fitted exactly into what i had asked for in the form. I met a lot of people through the language exchange in St.Patrick's and through other arranged activities.
Thanks everyone! :)

I really enjoyed the course. I learned Spanish mostly by myself before coming to EUROACE, so I was missing structure and basic grammar rules. I enjoyed the teaching style in the school a lot, the teachers presented the lessons in a fun and engaging way, presenting key grammar structures but also introducing lots of conversations, making us involved and willing to share lots of personal stories, to make us speak and get to know each other. I made many friends in my class that I would keep in touch with after the end of the course. The teachers were always very enthusiastic in class and their enthusiasm helped me a lot to motivate me to study. We could also customize the content of the classes, so I could ask about grammar rules and other gaps that I had with the language that were outside the study plan. I really enjoyed the support of the EUROACE team, they were very reliable and and friendly, I felt I very secure, being in a foreign country, I felt I could really rely on them to help me for any kind of orientation and support related to my everyday life.

My study abroad experience was by far the best 5 weeks of my life. Immersing yourself in another culture is a challenging, yet highly rewarding process and Euroace is definitely the most friendly and accommodating group to guide you on your trip! If you're worried about communicating, they are fluent in English but encourage you to speak Spanish-only and grow in your language abilities. When I went abroad, I had already completed a Spanish minor and the amount of progress I made by speaking Spanish full time for 5 weeks was truly unimaginable - I began to have dreams in my second language and I was so moved by my experience that I decided to change my degree plan and major in Spanish!

The Euroace group is so personable - Isa & Jose get to know participants on an individual level through instruction and group outings, so you are able to have a personal connection with native Spaniards just through this program, not to mention all the others you will meet and connect with through your daily ventures, conversation exchanges and weekend excursions. I learned so much about the culture and language in only 5 weeks in Spain through the Euroace program!

My only regret is that I didn't spend more time abroad before I graduated and entered the work force. If you're hesitating at all, my advice is to go abroad with Euroace! Stay for a month, a semester, a year - the longer the better and the more you will grow in your language abilities!
