Salamanca is the best place for learning Spanish as it is spoken there in its purest form without local accent. The town is not only safe but also full of places to explore and discover. ISLA is a well-run and professional language school with an amazing team of teachers and instructors. Finally, our students came back with a renewed enthusiasm for learning Spanish and had a wonderful time there. Everything was perfect from start to end. The trip went smoothly, ISLA team very friendly, efficient and extremely professional, host families friendly and caring and as for the cultural activities well planned and engaging.— More House School
