About Us
We love the Spanish language and Hispanic culture and want to bring both of them to you. When we think of Spanish we immediately think of the bright, vibrant colours of the sun, the sea, and the mountains. We think of passionate music, spirited conversation, wonderful food, and colourful fabrics. No other language travels as well or reminds us with its sounds and rhythms of the rich layers, hues and tones of the many cultures it embraces.
We have been teaching languages in Galway since 2007. In 2015 we decided to focus all of our efforts and attention on Spanish and we have, since then, assembled a great team of experienced teachers and support staff. We have invested in the most up to date classroom and online teaching technologies and have all kinds of exciting plans to further develop the Spanish Institute. Come join us on our journey.
We love to work with people and make our visitors feel welcome from the moment they step into our school.
The Spanish Institute
We want to teach our students to both speak and understand Spanish and so we focus on interaction in our lessons.
