Learn to Speak Spanish in Seville (Partner School)
|
Welcome to Seville! Seville is passion. This is where flamenco, bullfights, Don Juan, Carmen, Holy Week and the April Fair can be seen and felt in the baking heat of the South. Seville is the past. The largest old quarter in Europe. Virtually all the peoples of the Mediterranean have left their mark here –at Italica, or with the Giralda, the Torre del Oro, the Alcázar, the Cathedral…. And that was just the lead-up to Spain’s Siglo de Oro –the Golden Century, when Seville was the hub of the Spanish Empire, famous the world over for splendour with which no other city could compare. Seville is also the future, a modern city, open to all progress, especially since 1992, when it hosted the last Expo of the 20th century. But without a doubt, Seville’s finest asset is its people, as warm and lively as anywhere else in Spain, always ready to help visitors, delighted to share their cheerfulness and local traditions. If you want to really get soaked in everything Spanish, not only those of us who work at our school but also the whole city will welcome you with open arms." |
