Revision classes Primary/Secondary
Revision classes for students studying in the Spanish Primary school, and the secondary school, the Institute.
We provide revision classes for those students who may find the Spanish system challenging, the Spanish educational model continues to give priority to aspects such as theory and memorization of content rather than practice. At our school we offer revision classes from primary to Bachillerato, two hours per week tailored to the needs of the students. The costs are 30 euro to register and 45 euro per calendar month. Both of our teachers are qualified native speakers and very familiar with the Spanish system.
