Meet our students
My tutor makes the course really relaxed and enjoyable, which helps you to learn. It’s definitely building my confidence to help me in achieving my future goal of attending school in Spain.”
Bob Ellison is currently studying Introduction to Spanish at Warrington & Vale Royal College in his spare time and decided to enrol on the course to refresh his knowledge from previous Spanish studies at the college over 15 years ago. Bob particularly likes the positive atmosphere at college and feels his course is set at just the right level for anyone who wants to start learning Spanish.
I really enjoyed the Introduction to Spanish course at the college. The tutor was great and I loved practising my new-found confidence in the language when I visited Spain for my holidays!”
