  Hi all! My name is Nico and I’m French. Although I come from the city of Dijon, which is very far away from the ocean, I am very, very passionate about the marine world. That is why I studied the subject at university. After some working experiences, I came to Valencia to improve my Spanish at Taronja School for 4 weeks and susequently I’m going to begin an internship at the Oceanográfico, the largest aquarium in Europe, lasting three months by the European program Leonardo Da Vinci. But what I like most is that I do get a lot of time to enjoy the Valencian life and get to know its culture and of course its nightlife due to this quite long stay…

  I’m Kitty. I have studied Spanish at Taronja for two weeks. I study Spanish since two weeks. I really like Valencia. Valencia is a very nice and interesting city. The beach is also very nice. I love to buy things here because in Spain they are cheaper and nicer than in HK. I love to eat paella with seafood and drink Sangria.

Marianne, student august 2012

My name is Marianne and I am from Germany, near Munich. I’m 22 years old and I study international economy in Innsbruck, Austria. * I like Valencia a lot, because it is a very green city with the Turia and a lot more things to do. The best is ‘the City of Arts and Sciences’, the historic center with the cathedral and of course the beach and the sun. Taronja is a very good Spanish school because all the Spanish teachers are friendly and competent. I have learned a lot here and I really liked that the Spanish classes were small, and that I could meet many different people. There are many activities at night particularly the «Tapas Tour» is very good. I enjoyed my holiday in Valencia and at Taronja Spanish School and hopefully I can return sometime. * I learn Spanish for my studies and because I think it is a very beautiful language.

Hallo! My name is Frédérique and I’m from Paris. I’m a documentary filmmaker (film and radio) and I translate books from English into French. Last winter I was in Valencia for a few days to visit a protagonist of my last film. I spottet him in Paris and he is living here in Valencia. One day I was walking alone in the neighborhood of Cabanyal, near the beach, and I liked it so much that at the end of the visit I sat on a bench and cried. In this moment, I decided to return to Valencia to live here for a few months and learn more Spanish meanwhile. Then, I searched for a Spanish school in the internet and I found Taronja. Well, now that this experience is about to end, I can say that I was right on both counts. At Taronja School I learned a lot – also how to cook paella! – and I didn’t only get to know excellent teachers but also friends. And with Cabanyal, I discovered a neighborhood so interesting I wouldn’t have thought before. Many thanks to everyone and see you soon, because it is certain that the adventure only had begun…

My name is Matthias and I am from Cologne, Germany. I’m 23 years old and I’m a student. I am studying industrial engineering at the Technical University of Aquisgrán. I like Spanish and that is why I want to learn the language. I have studied Spanish before for one year at university. Valencia is a big city but but also not too big and it has a great offer of culture, the beach, a lot of discotheques and bars where you can got out at night. That is why I chose this city in order to do a Spanish course.

I like Taronja School very much. The parties are great and all the other activities are also very good. The teachers are very involved and I have learned a lot.

  I have greatly enjoyed my time at the Spanish school. I have been very comfortable with the group and the professors. The Spanish classes were also amusing. I would have loved the Spanish course to be longer and therefore I believe I will come back.

  I’m Martin from Holland. By now I have only studied at Taronja School for one week but I liked it so far very much. I’ve had Spanish classes in a group with people from many different countries. The Spanish classes were fun and interesting. Every day you could take part in an activity organized by the Spanish school. In the end, a very cool time!
