Student Testimonials
Maja F.
"I highly recommend Café Español Academy! I was very satisfied with the course. The school puts a strong focus on practical conversation, which really helped build confidence in speaking. The teacher was great, very flexible, and adapted the content and topics to what the participants were interested in, which made the lessons engaging and highly relevant. It felt motivating and fun to learn in such an environment. A great experience overall. I will definitely come back for another course"!

"The teacher's interest in our lives, jobs and experience here in Spain made it easier to participate in the classes as, it felt like talking to a friend : ) The group size was perfect with room for personal attention, which made the conversational simulations light and funny! The useful topics, grammar level and a bit of slang, boosted my confidence towards talking like a local".
Guy U.
"My professional life at a global company means I communicate almost entirely in English, which has made practicing Spanish a real challenge. Cafe Español Academy helps fill that gap. It's incredibly beneficial to converse with other non-native speakers who are at a similar level, allowing for natural communication where you don't feel rushed or stressed. The Spanish teachers are great, their constant support, gentle error correction, and ability to facilitate conversations make it a productive and enjoyable social activity".
Natalie B.
"Joining Café Español has been one of the most enjoyable and helpful experiences in my journey of learning Spanish in Barcelona. After completing three semesters of structured Spanish classes, I still found myself struggling with everyday conversations. The weekly meetups are everything I was missing: relaxed, social, and focused on speaking Spanish in the most natural way possible. It’s not just language practice – it’s community, connection, and confidence-building, all in one".
Marvin
"He asistido a muchos intercambios de idiomas en Barcelona durante mis casi dos años viviendo aquí, ¡y podría decir que el Café Español es uno de los mejores! Viajaba de Sarriá a Sant Cugat cada semana para poder participar en las sesiones. Las sesiones están estructuradas y dan a todos la oportunidad de participar, hablar y aprender al mismo tiempo".
