Colegio International AlicanteAbout the
Colegio International is a small and modern school founded in 1998. Classrooms are perfect equipped and air conditioned. The school located within the centre of the town, within the main shopping area, 5 minutes to the sea and a few minutes from the historic sights. All the teachers are University Graduates with many years of teaching experience. The small classes and the familiar way the teachers interact with the students create a friendly, dynamic and young atmosphere. There is a programme of Extra-curricular activities: visits to the city, art exhibitions, theatre plays, Spanish films, excursions to nearby villages, beach parties, Golf or adventure sports, flamenco dancing. Private tuition or specialised Business Spanish is also available for students who do not wish to pursue a normal group course. On the other hand, we are able to design a “tailor-made” course to fit student’s specific needs.
The methodology is active and communicative. The student speaks from the starting day. Groups consist of an average of 6 to 12 participants, intermittently also up to 14, and an hour of instruction consists 50 minutes. Students are given a written and oral test on arrival and placed in a class according to their knowledge of Spanish. Everyday, students are given written homework and may take an examination at the end of their course. At the end of the course the school will issue a certificate to the student, but the Colegio Internacional Alicante does reserve the right to refuse such a certificate to any student who did not attend 90% of classes. We insist that all our students complete daily homework exercises and attend all their classes. This is to enable the whole class to progress rapidly and at the same pace. The Intensive Course are scheduled in the morning with 20 lessons per week.

Location
Accommodation
Accommodation is arranged for students in host families or share apartments. Host families treat the students as one of the family. Students can participate in the everyday life of a Spanish family. In exchange for these benefits the students have to fit in with the host family’s way of life and customs. A shared flat is other option. The students share an apartment either with Spaniards or with other students. The apartments are comfortable, but basically furnished, no luxury. The students are responsible for keeping them clean and for bringing their own towels. Both, apartments and families have all been selected and will be visited by the staff regularly. In some apartments students are required to pay a deposit.
