Malaca Instituto · Spanish school in Malaga

At Malaca Instituto you will find not only an excellent teaching programme, but also learning and leisure facilities, which are among the best to be found in a language school anywhere. Situated in a residential suburb 10 minutes walk from Mediterranean beaches and 15 minutes bus ride from the centre of Málaga, our mini-campus of Malaca Instituto-Club Hispánico has a magnificent location with views of the sea and mountains.

We use an eclectic, integrated method combining many aspects of the communicative approach with structured learning of grammar and syntax.

Each day, according to the progress of each class and our detailed course syllabus, a new area of language is introduced and practised in a systematic manner. This involves some elements of traditional teaching methods, as well as classroom activities such as language games, pair work and role-plays aimed at developing communicative fluency. Our students are encouraged to speak in Spanish from the very beginning.
