Default Spanish lessons

Hello All

Glad to join the group!

I will be in Pollensa for 5 weeks in June/July - part holiday/part exploration as to whether we would like to move there.

My husband is Spanish and I am at an intermediate level of castellano but would very much like to improve so I wonder if anyone can recommend any schools or teachers as I would ideally like to do 2 hrs studying/practising every weekday while we are there.

(I have tried contacting Idiomas Pollenca but received no response).

Many thanks for any help

Wendy

I don't believe I can as it is advertising but am sure Sparky will correct me if I'm wrong. I am happy to pass on her details to anyone by PM.

Hi Lollipop

Are you able to send me the details of the teacher yet (do I have enough posts)? Thanks!

Just found this post. I have the same problem. I need to find a native Spanish teacher for conversational practice with my 12 year old son, We will stay in Port Pollensa from 18 July until 28 August 2018. If anyone can recommend me a teacher please PM me.

In fact it does not even have to be a teacher byt anyone who is a native speaker and has some patience.
thank you

Wow, 12 years for an update....must be some sort of record possibly?

I'm trying to learn Spanish and would be interested in lessons if I was out there for a long period. Do I take it that you must be a Resident to sign up?

The enrollment form lists documentation required,
Photocopy of DNI, NIE, Passport or Community Document. However, I will establish for certain next week.

Simple enough! Supporting documentation as detailed. Just a photocopy of my passport was sufficient.
