Learn Spanish in Madrid with an OISE intensive Spanish courses


OISE intensive Spanish courses in Madrid provide an effective structure in which to make optimum progress. The nature of OISE Madrid courses as complete immersion experiences helps to maximise the contact time with the language.
OISE Madrid is located in the attractive residential district of Chamartin, a perfect location for an intensive Spanish course, with easy access to all parts of the city. The nearby train station provides a fast link with the central Puerta del Sol while Cuzco metro station is just 2 minutes' walk from the school.
The City
There are many reasons why OISE chose to locate our intensive Spanish programmes in Madrid. It is a leading cultural centre with some of the greatest art museums in the world, such as the Prado and the Thyssen. It is a major sporting centre with world class football at Real Madrid as well excellent golf and tennis facilities and even skiing in the nearby Sierra De Guadarrama. It has some of the finest restaurants in Europe as well as a nightlife which is unequalled anywhere.
However, the key reason why we believe our Spanish courses are best located in Madrid is that it is a quintessentially Spanish city. English has not taken over here as it has on the Mediterranean coast, nor is Spanish rivalled by regional languages, as occurs in many parts of Spain. Throughout their stay, students are immersed in the language they are studying on their intensive Spanish course at OISE Madrid.
The lessons
The Tutorial lesson - the teaching tradition of Oxford University - is one of the most effective methods of language learning. The programme is based entirely on individual lessons. This means that the tutor's attention is focused on one student, and allows for a perfect match between the lesson content and the learning requirements of the student.
• the tutor devotes 100% attention to the student
• teaching methods are adapted to the learning style and pace of the student
• individual weaknesses and specific needs of the student are addressed
• the course content is tailored to the student’s study or career objectives
• inhibited or reserved students receive maximum talking practice
• no time is wasted covering points already known to the student or of no relevance.
Choose from Tutorial 30 (€2895), Tutorial 25(€2475) , Tutorial 20(€2055) or Tutorial 15(€1635)
The Quatorial programme - four participants per group - is designed not only to help develop language accuracy but also to allow the participant to overcome inhibitions and to use the language eloquently in all situations, small, dynamic learning units for rapid progress.
Learners are exposed to a number of different training situations throughout the day. These mirror the real world and enable the practice of different skills.The different areas of Quatorial training which deliver effective results:
controlled practice in language structures and lexis development with constant support and feedback to achieve a good command of grammatical structures, idioms, and vocabulary.
drills to sharpen understanding of written text through reading a wide range of materials - reports, articles and studies.
coaching and practice in letter, report, email, presentation and article-writing
formal listening exercises
The Quatorial Project - working on an engaging problem-solving task. Self-awareness is enhanced through the use of video playback, reflection on interpersonal interactions and overall project outcomes.
Plenary Session - a News Review to practise formal presentation.                                
Spoken Performance Workshop - fluency skills session to help the learner overcome inhibitions and communication anxieties.
Individual attention - The Quatorial Programme includes one hour of Masterclass.
 Participants can choose to replace this with 1 or 2 hours of Tutorial lessons with a private tutor.
Choose from Quatorial Programme (€1110), Quatorial Programme + 15 Tutorials(€2265) , Quatorial Programme + 10 Tutorials (€1897), Quatorial Programme + 5 Tutorials (€1477)
All programmes : Minimum age : 17 School days : Monday to Friday Levels : beginner to high advanced
Prices quoted in Parentheses (€) are based on a one week course and include accommodation in homestay with half baord living, €275pw can be deducted should alternative accommodation be required or alternatively the school offer residencial accommodation with and supllement of €280 pw should be added.  For bookings of one week or more the fee scale reduces accordingly.

Ratzenried Castle ages 18+ (for groups of 15 or more people) Intensive German language courses at Ratzenried Castle situated in the picturesque foothills of the Alps
Information
The Humboldt-Institut is a non-profit association for German as a foreign language which was first established in 1977. In the three-plus decades of its existence, over 40.000 students from more than 160 countries have come to Germany to study in one of its 18 different course centers.
Intensive Courses
The intensive German courses comprise 30 lessons per week. The very effective lessons cover all areas of language acquisition (reading, writing, listening, grammar and expression).
TestDaF Preparatory Courses
TestDaF preparatory courses with 30 lessons per week are especially designed for students who wish to prepare for the standardized TestDaF exam. In the TestDaF preparatory course you will also practice real exam situations. Special emphasis will be put on vocabulary and the use of means of verbal expressions.
One-to-one Courses
Humboldt  offer all German learners the opportunity to intensify their language experience by taking highly intensive one-to-one German courses with 30 or 40 lessons per week.
The teacher will focus on the individual needs of the course participant and will custom-tailor the lessons according to his or her necessities.

This course is aimed at (prospective) students and employees and in business and administration who are already proficient in German (level B2 or higher).

Classroom work is complemented by excursions that offer a practical glimpse at everyday professions life in German companies.
Accommodation
 Residential schools - In residential schools, students stay on the same campus where they have their lessons, which has, of course, many advantages for our course participants: they have all meals together, spend the afternoons, evenings and weekends together and hence it is very easy for them to make a lot of new friends from different countries in a short time.
Host families - In the host family,  students stay in single and twin rooms, and will have their breakfast with the family, all other meals will be taken in our school to ensure that they will be integrated in the group of students staying on campus. Humboldt  have chosen all of thier host families very carefully, know them personally, and guarantee that  students will be well taken care of there.
