Estudio Sampere Spanish Summer Program for Teenagers

This special Spanish summer course for students aged 13 to 16 combines Spanish study with a holiday in the famous city of Salamanca. Spanish lessons in small classes are combined with activities and excursions, as students experience a new culture and make international friends.

The Spanish Course:  The Spanish course is the most important part of the junior program. Classes are held from Monday to Friday and homework is always assigned. The teachers are demanding and only Spanish is spoken in the classroom.

In three hours daily, students study and practice all aspects of the Spanish language: grammar and composition, vocabulary and conversation. Students who successfully meet the course objectives receive a Diploma at the end of the course.

Accommodation:  Accommodation and food are very important parts of the Spanish experience. Spanish families: Our families are carefully selected and each one has been visited and inspected by the staff. Two students share a room. Some families have children of their own. The families live near the school –10 to 20 minutes on foot– and students take part in family life.

The three main meals of the day are all included. Students receive a packed lunch with sandwiches and fruit on excursion or pool days. Estudio Sampere ensures that the meals are healthy and balanced. It is essential to note any special dietary needs to be stated on the registration form.

Activities: The Junior Course includes cultural, sports and many other activities at no extra cost. A different activity is planned for each day except Sunday, including: visits to museums, group events, a day at the swimming pool and excursions and field trips outside Salamanca.

Meeting young people from other countries is a rewarding part of the program, broadening the students' view of the world. The activities permit and encourage these contacts. All activities are supervised by Estudio Sampere personnel.

Travel to Salamanca:  Participants should arrive at Madrid-Barajas airport before 6 PM on the Sunday before the start of the course. A private bus waits at the Madrid airport which transports our Junior Course participants comfortably to Salamanca.

The bus makes one trip in the late morning and another in the late afternoon. The journey to Salamanca takes less than three hours. Participants who arrive on Saturday will be personally escorted to the bus terminal to take public transportation to Salamanca. Estudio Sampere staff meets the students upon arrival in Salamanca. Transportation Madrid-Salamanca-Madrid is included in the price of the course.
