About the course
Do you want to improve your Spanish effectively without giving up the experience of your trip?
This course combines dynamic, communicative learning in the mornings with complete freedom to explore, relax or work in the afternoons. You move forward at a comfortable pace while living the day-to-day life of a coastal town.
Program
Two lessons per day (10:00 – 11:50 am): a dynamic learning block focused on interaction. We use communicative methods and real materials (music, videos) so that you can practice Spanish in real situations from day one.
Free afternoons: the schedule is designed to give you maximum flexibility to enjoy an authentic cultural immersion.
A unique learning environment: forget about traditional classrooms. Weather permitting, many of our classes are held in our gardens, with the sea breeze and sunlight as study companions.

Your questions answered
Which course is more convenient for me, the semi-intensive or the intensive one?
Choose the semi-intensive course if your priority is balance:
- you want to learn at a comfortable pace: 2 lessons a day give you a solid foundation without overloading you.
- you want to combine study and leisure: you will have most of the day free to work, go sightseeing, try paddle surfing or simply enjoy the beach.
- your stay is longer: it is the ideal format for several weeks or months, as it is more sustainable and lets you absorb the material better.
Choose the intensive course if your priority is speed:
- you are looking for fast progress in a short time: 4 lessons a day speed up your learning as much as possible
- your trip is focused on study: it is perfect if you come for 1-3 weeks and your main goal is language immersion
- you like a fast, dynamic learning pace.
In short: if you want the most learning in the least time, choose the intensive. If you want effective learning while experiencing the full culture and leisure of the place, choose the semi-intensive.
Why is "balance" so emphasized in this course? Won't I learn more slowly?
Per week you progress less than in the intensive course, because you have half the class hours. In return, you have time to absorb what you have learned and use it outside the classroom. That is why it works so well for longer stays.
I have the afternoons free with this course. What can I do in Rincón de la Victoria that I could not do if I were in downtown Málaga?
This is where the semi-intensive course shines! Having your afternoons free in Rincón de la Victoria opens up a world of authentic possibilities, away from the stress of the city center:
- enjoy quiet beaches: you leave class and the beach is right in front of you, a spacious spot where you can relax, read or swim without the crowds of the city center
- visit Málaga: its historic center, its museums and its markets
- do water sports: the area is perfect for activities such as paddle surfing or kayaking, and you will have the whole afternoon to practice
- explore hiking trails: you are a short distance from the Montes de Málaga, with trails offering sea views, perfect for a walk after class
- live the local rhythm: you can go for tapas at beach bars where you will only hear Spanish, join the life of a genuine seaside town and practice the language in a relaxed, real setting.
In short, you not only learn Spanish in the morning: in the afternoon you experience Rincón like a local.
I have already decided that I want a leisurely pace. What makes the Hablandis methodology special in these 2 hours?
They are two very active hours. We work with real materials (songs, videos, street texts), you speak from the very first minute and, whenever the weather allows, the class moves out to our garden.
