Alicante, the heart of the Costa Blanca, is known for its palm-lined Explanada promenade, the hilltop Santa Bárbara Castle and its city beaches. With a sunny climate and low costs, it is ideal for learning Spanish in a holiday atmosphere.
Ask NGGlobal's advisers about the current language school options in Alicante. Alicante has independent language schools as well as schools from groups such as Enforex.
Short programs last 1-4 weeks, while long-term programs run from 12 weeks to 6 months. Schools usually follow the Common European Framework levels from A1 to C1.
Language school fees in Alicante depend on course intensity, the type of school and the length of your booking. The weekly price falls for longer bookings, and extra discounts apply for early bookings and promotions. Applying through NGGlobal lets you compare the schools' current offers in one place.
Language schools do not require a diploma or any prior knowledge of the language. After you complete the enrolment form and pay the deposit, the school sends you a confirmation, which is used for visa and residence procedures on long programs.
For short courses, booking 3-4 weeks ahead is enough. Schengen visa appointments can take longer in busy periods, so students applying from Turkey should plan at least 2 months ahead. There are no lessons on public holidays.
Turkish citizens apply for a Schengen visa for language courses of up to 90 days. The application requires the school's enrolment letter, proof of payment, proof of accommodation, travel health insurance and proof of funds.
We recommend that language students plan their budget without relying on income from work. If you plan language study as the first step towards a Spanish degree or master's, part-time work may become possible during that period.
Homestay is the most common option in Alicante; living with a Spanish family is ideal for getting to know the language and food culture up close.
Living costs in Alicante are much lower than in Spain's big cities, and food and accommodation suit a student budget.
Trams and buses link Alicante with the nearby beaches.
Alicante has a Mediterranean climate with hot, sunny summers, mild winters and plenty of sunshine for most of the year.
Alicante Airport (ALC) is usually reached from Turkey with connecting flights, and the high-speed train from Madrid takes about 2.5 hours.
Because Spain uses daylight saving time, the difference changes with the season: from late March to late October Alicante is 1 hour behind Turkey, and in winter it is 2 hours behind.
NGGlobal advisers give students planning a language course in Alicante free support with comparing schools, price quotes, accommodation and visa documents.
