The Sandford Language Institute has been running courses in Spanish since 1989. Our tutors are native speakers and qualified teachers, teaching the communicative use of the language making it as relevant as possible to every day situations. All of the main language skills of Reading, Writing, Listening, speaking and Use of language (Grammar) are developed in classes. If you join a class and the level proves too high or low, moving level is no problem. Enrolment for upcoming Sep / Oct 2009 classes is now possible.

If a class has started you would like to join, it is no problem. We will either arrange a catch up class or not charge you for missed weeks.

Maximum class size of 15
