The Pack - Language Experience
Comments
Loved The Pack Language Experience so much last year in Madrid that I went back for more in 2019. This surely has to be one of the most effective, interesting and exciting ways to improve your Spanish. There were 7 of us in the group and the course took place in beautiful San Lorenzo de Escorial and consisted of a mixture of formal lessons, visits and activities. The lessons were designed not only to improve your Spanish but also to enhance the associated activity and ensure you got the maximum benefit from it. Visits included Avila, Segovia, La Granja and San Lorenzo de Escorial. Organisers Adrian and Ana did a great job both in preparing the course but also ensuring that it all ran smoothly; picking up at the airport, meals, local guides and surprise activities and so on. Yes, there was a course outline issued in advance but how nice that, when the time came, nobody failed to be surprised at the nature of the activity. I am deliberately not giving away what all the activities were. Come on the course and find out for yourself. You’ll not regret it.😀
