I have enjoyed every moment of my two week spanish course at Taronja, my only regret being that I didn’t stay longer!
The teachers are great, very helpful and patient. Everyone at the school is friendly and eager to help.
Not only have I learned some spanish but I have met some wonderfl people and made memories that will last a lifetime.
Valencia is a fantastic city with so much to see and do. Taronja organises fabulous activities and I highly recommend the Flamenco evening and attending a Valencia Football game.
I would happily return to Taronja.

My name is Ysaline and i stayed 5 months in Valencia and in the school Taronja.
When i arrived at Valencia i wasn’t able to speak one word in spanish. I’ve never studied spanish. But after one week with 4 hours of classes and more beach than ever i could speak and understood without any problems.
Today is my penultimate day ad i can’t believe that i’m leaving all this behind me. I made friends who i never will forget, memories which are one of the best in my life. Also i learned a beautiful lenguage and this so fast. It’s amazing! I wont forget the people i got to know, the places i’ve been to and the teachers i had. Taronja is not a school like the others. Taronja is a family, a community of brilliant, crazy, funny, incredible and unforgetable people, whether teachers, grant holder or student.
While these 5 months i stayed in a spanish family. It couldn’t have been better: tipical food, tipical life. It was such a great experience. Also the activities which are organised from the school help you to discover the spanish life.
I want to say thank you to all the persons who made this trip to an incredible and unique experience.

Hi Sweeties!
We are a group of 8 students from Holland ( Tom, Jesús, Kevin, Juanes, Sjoerd, Royce, Kim, Willemyn, Anne y Malin ). We stayed one week in Valencia for learning spanish at Taronjaschool. We visited many interesing places like the city of «las artes y ciencias», the old town, Mercado Central and we ate Churros, Horchata and Paella from Chef Nando 🙂 We also had Nandos cooking class and learned how to cook croquette with ham. The school is so much fun! We had Ana and Victor as teachers. They’re so nice !! Learning was also fun. We did it for example with Games like means of transporte, sport and speak to the people on the street. We like Valencia much because it’s really warm and the people are so nice and open. It’s a extraordinary, funny and fantastic city!! This is not a «Goodbye», this is a «see you soon»! Big kiss! Stedelijk SchoolWest Buckland
¡HOLA!
We are 8 students from West Buckland which is in the southeast in Ingland. We’ve been in Valencia for one week ( 28/10 until the 3/11). We think that Valencia is a really beautiful city with many things to do. In general we love the beach, the city of artes y ciencias and all the shops. In the Taronjaschool we had Mariajo and Victor as teacher and they were so kind and helped us a lot. In the mornings we had some activities which helped us to get to knoew the spannish culture. Now for example we know how to cooke the spanish Tortilla and Gazpacho. For us this trip was very interesting and we had a lot of fun. It was AWESOME! Thank you some much for everything, Taronja!!!!

It was an incredible time !!
In may i decided to go to Valencia for the vacactions to learn spanish. I searched through internet and found the Taronjaschool. Today is my last day and tomorrow i’m leaving to go home again. I’ve been here for 2 weeks and i think that i improved my spanish, but i’m still not satisfited with my level, thats why i want to keep on learning and practicing the lenguage. This week i bought two books which are written from spanish writers to read them at house. In general the city is beautifu and i really like the architecture and the ambience. At one hand the city has a historic part and on the other hand it’s very modern. I think both are stunning. Another good thing is that the beach is not that far away; you just have to take the bus and you’re there. I also think that the spanish people are very symphatic and open, but i could never live here. At the end i want to say something about the school. I liked the school and the best thing at school was that you have the chance to get to know so many people and about the spanish libe through all the drifferent activities.
It defenitely was an inredible time !!
Everybody was so nice!
Everything was so great: the houses and the activities!
In all the time i learned so many things. And the activities are very interesting, for example the Flamencoshow or other very funny activities like the Beachparty!
But the most important thing is that the teachers and everybody from the school is so kind and nice!

Four awesome weeks in Taronja pased by. The teachers are such friendly, kind and intent persons and the school always cared about our worries and needs, just like the personal administracion. They teach spanish with effect and kidness. Also the activities are really variable. The cooking of the cook Fernando is delicious and Valencia is a beautiful city. There are so many things to do and see. For me this was a brilliant experience!!Thank you for everything!!!

There are no words which could discribe how much i liked the whole experience here.»Taronja» is a school with maniacs, from the teachers to the students and empoyers… but it’s a great type of crayzness which you can’t see in other places like this : It’s a positive crazyness, which always makes you laugh and smile. I will always keep the teachers, which i had in class, and the ones, who shared their time between a lot of books with me, in my heart. A huge thank you to all the persons who teached me the language and many other things.
And of course the city… the fantastic and beautiful city where it never gets cold ( well almost never ) and i’m really in love with. And thanks to the persons who offered me get to know all these special friends here.
Every person in general who was here, not important if it was a student, a worker or any other person, they never leave completely. They always leave a little part of them at the school and the school always has a open door for everyone.
At the end i’m really thankfull for everyone who took part in the school; the two Martas ( the blonde one and the the one with the red hair ), the chef Nando, Maxi, Miguel 🙂
It’s amazing to think back at this 3 months.
I will miss everyone sooooooo bad !!
In every way, as i always say and think, this isn’t a «Bye» but it’s a honestly ment «See you soon» 🙂
