A German Group of Spanish Students have been to study with us in Salamanca all this week. They’ve enjoyed an intensive Spanish Language Course and a broad cultural program with us, find out about their trips and group Spanish course here.
This week we’ve had a group of 25 students from the city of Moeckmuehl in Germany come to study Spanish with us in Salamanca, north Spain. They’ve come with their 2 Spanish teachers, Roman and Caroline!
The group have had a great time with us in Salamanca and enjoying the Cultural program that we organised for them they’ve seen most of the cultural and historic sights of Salamanca! They were lucky enough to go and visit the Cathedral of Salamanca and, thanks to the ieronimus project went up the Cathedral and saw the city from the best view point. The ieronimus project lets you go up the Cathedral and walk around the outside at the top, go inside the Cathedral very high up and has loads of information about the Cathedral and it’s history. It’s beautiufl inside and has some amazing views from the top where you can see all of Salamanca! The Cathedral of Salamanca is actually made up of 2 Cathedrals, the old and the new one. It took so long to finish builidng the Cathedral of Salamanca that we talk about the old and new Cathedral. The construction covers a range of styles, but the New Cathedral is both Gothic and Barroque in style.
The students also did a tour with us of the Convents of Salamanca. The convents are old and historic and full of culture and history of Salamanca. The best way to visit them is to go on a guided tour so that you can find out all about how and when they were made and the history of the monks and nuns that live there. There are convents all over the centre, sometimes hidden or so discreet that you don’t even realise they’re there!
On Saturday the students went to visit the nearby cities of Avila and Segovia, two beautiful old cities in Castille and Leon and near to Salamanca.
The students have had a great time in Salamanca improving their Spanish and we’ve really enjoyed having them with us this week. Their group program was organised just for them, just like we can organise a group program for your school or group. The students that come with us to study as a group don’t have to be from a school or University. If you’re interested in a group trip to Salamanca, Granada or Seville you can find out more on our website or get in touch with us at the school! You can see an example of a group trip plan in Salamanca on our website, and you can also check out a budget for your group trip to Spain with us.
