Amazing school that is well managed and organized. Teachers are well prepared and engaged. School is also organizing extracurricular activities which are either educational or fun and I enjoyed both types. I had also opportunity to stay in one of the school shared flats. They are simple but clean and perfect for the time of stay. I highly recommend! If I could, I would definitely stay at school for a few months. I hope to be back at some point and do another course.

Excellent Spanish teaching with skilled and friendly teachers. Lessons are tailored to your level and you can create a very bespoke, flexible course. Good extra-curricular events too.

I returned to Taronja for a third time to prepare and take an exam. This time I realized that a lot of the attraction of the school is the atmosphere and the fun. If you are serious about learning Spanish this is not necessarily the best school. I went this time for two weeks to prepare for an exam and took the full package of lessons, conversion classes and private lessons. Whilst I have nothing but admiration for the teachers in the private lessons, the rest was 90% extended conversation classes. There is an illusion of structure but it is not respected. I leave my previous comments to respect the integrity and coherence of what I am writing now. I really enjoyed my time at Taronja. For me everything came together for a fantastic experience. The teachers and teaching methods are great, the school has a great atmosphere where one rapidly feels comfortable and part of what is happening. The mix of different ages is also fantastic, it is great to get so much intergenerational contact. Finally, Valencia is a fantastic city; a nice size, loads of things going on, and I would almost say that it has a spirit.

I am so glad that I had an idea to combine my travelling with Spanish learning. Taronja provides friendly and welcoming environment for all ages. Especially I like an optional program for gathering and travelling. Muchas gracias Taronja!!! With love from Canada.

I did a Spanish course in Taronja for one week and I loved it. In particular I appreciated the interactive way and the discussions that were promoted within the classmates to learn and talk. The activities organized by the school were also great (thanks again Nando for the fantastic paella class!). Last but not least, Valencia is a beautiful city and perfect to learn Spanish also outside of the school!

Intensive course for 3 weeks I went to Taronja as an almost beginner in Spanish and after three weeks I think I’ve made such an improvement but I’ve also learnt so much about different cultures and I think it has been an amazing experience.
I stayed in one of the school’s shared apartments with 4-5 other students from the school all of different nationalities and we were from the age of 18-26 and that was one of things that made my time there so special because you make such deep special bonds with other people in the same situation as you.
Over the three weeks the teachers were so engaging and welcoming along with the interns. There were multiple times where after activities we’d go to a bar or get some food and you felt so welcome and they were all so enthusiastic. In lessons each teacher found a different way to make sure you were taking in everything and the lessons were always fun. They also had a massive focus on conversation which was so helpful.
At the school there was such a range of ages and nationalities but I think we all came together really well through all of the amazing activities. My favourites were the excursions and the paella parties but all of them are worth doing as they improve your Spanish and give you opportunities to meet new people.
Thank you so much Taronja for the experience
