Our methodology at BCNLIP
At BCNLIP, we don’t just teach a language – we invite you to live it. Our unique methodology is rooted in total immersion, enabling learning to happen both inside and outside the classroom. Through a variety of activities, we seamlessly integrate the language into your daily life, creating meaningful and unforgettable experiences.
Every Friday, our workshops and immersion classes are tailored to four distinct levels
Basic - Live
Designed for beginners, this cycle guides you through your first steps in Spanish. It combines workshops on spelling, phonetics, and listening comprehension with practical activities to help you confidently navigate everyday situations.
Elementary - Express yourself
Here, we connect language with movement through body expression, complemented by phonetics and spelling workshops. This dynamic approach creates a richer learning experience, immersing you in both the language and its culture.
Intermediate - Join the Community
This level takes learning beyond the classroom, allowing you to explore Barcelona from within. Immerse yourself in its history, art, gastronomy, and traditions, fostering a deeper connection with the local culture.
Advanced - Discover
Immerse yourself further into the language and culture of Barcelona with specially designed activities for advanced-level students. Explore the city through immersive routes that bring its rich history and vibrant neighborhoods to life, and deepen your understanding of its cultural heritage with engaging art history workshops. These experiences are crafted to provide a profound connection to the local culture while advancing your language skills.
The immersive cycles are an essential part of our long-term intensive courses and are not offered as standalone options. Their cost is included in the fees for our 20-hour-per-week long-term programs.

They can introduce themselves and others, as well as ask for and provide basic personal information about their home, belongings, and the people they know. Communication is possible in a simple manner when the other person speaks slowly and clearly and is willing to assist.

Upper Intermediate students are able to understand the main ideas of complex texts that discuss both concrete and abstract themes even if they are technical in character as long as they fall in their area of specialization.
They can connect with native speakers with a sufficient degree of fluency and natural style so that the conversation flows without effort on the part of either speaker.
