We love the Spanish language and Hispanic culture and want to bring both of them to you. When we think of Spanish we immediately think of the bright, vibrant colours of the sun, the sea, and the mountains. We think of passionate music, spirited conversation, wonderful food, and colourful fabrics. No other language travels as well or reminds us with its sounds and rhythms of the rich layers, hues and tones of the many cultures it embraces.
We have been teaching languages in Galway since 2007 but have decided to focus all of our efforts and attention on Spanish and have assembled a great team of experienced teachers and support staff. We have invested in the most up-to-date classroom and on-line teaching technologies and have all kinds of exciting plans to further develop the Spanish Institute. Come join us on our journey.
We love to work with people and make our visitors feel welcome from the moment they step into our school.
We want to teach our students to both speak and understand Spanish and so we focus on interaction in our lessons.
Here’s the view from our office. Visitors tell us we have the best location in Galway.
Of course, when it comes to creating the best learning environment, nothing is as important as the teacher. We pride ourselves on having talented, native teachers who strive to make their classes effective, interesting, and fun.
Rocío loves children and has a special talent for teaching them. She is a master at using our interactive white board, along with puppets, toys, and games to share her love of Spanish with the children she teaches.
Laura is from Madrid and has been teaching Spanish for the last ten years. She enjoys working with both adults and children. Her other passions include travelling, singing, dancing, theatre, and animals.

Our address is 58 Dominick Street, Galway.
To find us, look for the Arabica coffee shop on Dominick Street. Between it and the next building is a red-brick laneway that leads to a courtyard of buildings.
Come down this laneway until you reach the last building, which is called Granary Suites. We are on the first floor.
This is what you see when you come down our laneway.
