Hi! We are Austrian students. We studied Spanish in Valencia for one week, the weather was very warm. We visited the city of Valencia and we celebrated the festivity of the Valencian Community (on the 9th of October). The Moors and Christians and the fireworks were amazing. The Paella was very good and the Sangría too. We visited the historical city center and the beach was very nice. We have also visited the Valencia circuit and the harbour. The school has many colours and all the teachers are nice. We like that people liked our Mexican

Two weeks ago I came to Valencia. A city that I did not know, I was welcomed by Mara, in her home. I liked it a lot. She has a very interesting and rich life. The school Taronja is very open. All the teachers are young,  very communicative and smiling. I liked the ways of the school, very artistic. It´s perfect. I am going to try to come back one day, the activities are really fun as well. Alexandra -Bulgaria

  I really liked all the activities. I lived with a very friendly and kind family. And the food was very nice and variated. In short; I love Valencia because this city is very much alive. Sandra -Suiza

I am very happy with my stay at Taronja. People working here were very friendly, and so were my classmates. I learned a lot, but for me one week was too short, I will definetly return. Cya soon Taronja and and my thanks to everyone for everything, especially my teachers Ana and Victor -Izalin (France)

I only had one week of courses but it was an interesting and memorable experience. Thanks to the teachers my level of spanish increased a lot and I can speak way more fluent now. Everyone working at Taronja is friendly and they will help you find your way. The school is perfect to combine with visiting the city because of its central location. Paola

Sólo frecuente una semana de curso pero fue una experiencia muy interesante y memorable. Gracias a mis profesores mi nivel de Español subí mucho y mi comunicación oral se hizo más fluido. Todos los empleados de la escuela son amables y te ayudan a orientarte. La posición muy céntrica de la escuela es perfecta para visitar Valencia. Paola

  My time in Valencia was absolutely fantastic. We had a great time at the Oceanografico. We saw a lot of interesting attractions at the aquarium. As well the Science Museum in Valencia was quite fun to visit. At the very first night when we arrived we met our supervisor Marta who took us by coach. She´s very nice and sometimes really fun tu be with. The Taronja school was a good experience for us to visit Valencia. In the morning we also had to study two lessons each day, even though we were allowed to go outside of our classroom during break time. We had different teachers for each interval. My time at Valencia was very fantastic. Valencia is unforgettable!

Hey everybody around the world! On the 23rd of February we arrived in Valencia and it’s a very nice city. It’s a city full of history but it’s also a modern city. The people here are very open and sympathetic and always helpful. On the first day we went to the beach and saw the port but it was a little bit windy. On the second day we visited the historic center of the city, had a Horchata and in the evening we had paella with seafood and vegetables. On the third day we went to the Mercado Central and in the afternoon we had a cooking class with the hilarious Chef Nando. On the fourth day we took a trip to see the modern part of the city and the Fallas Museum. On the last day we visited the Oceanografic Museum. We really loved our stay here and Spain is very beautiful. We can’t wait to return. See you soon! Name: Maria, Silvia, Martina, Francesca Country: Italia During our stay in Valencia we visited the most important places in Valencia, like for example the Plaza de Toros, the Estacion de Norte, the cathedral, the Plaza Redonda, the Plaza del Ayuntamiento and the City of Arts and Sciences. Today we went to see the Oceanografic Museum. We really liked Valencia because it’s a much bigger city than the village we come from, so here you can find a lot more shops! The people here are very friendly, open-minded and the food is as tasty as is in Italy. For example, we loved the paella, especially the one with seafood. We also loved the beaches. We had an awesome week and we can only recommend Valencia to everybody! Thanks for all! Goodbye! Name: Beatrice, Sara, Alessia, Erica Country: Italia Valencia is a phantastic city; very clean, with a cosmopolitan flair and full of sympathetic people. There are a lot of ancient and architectonically interesting buildings. But there’s not only history but also the beaches, the food, restaurants and a lot of shops. On Monday we went to see the beach because the weather was awesome. On Tuesday we went to see the historic center of Valencia which was very interesting. On Wednesday we went to the Mercado Central which is a place full of fresh and delicious food. On Thursday we visited the Fallas Museum, which is something very typical of Valencia. Today is our last day in Valencia and we are quite sad because life in Valencia is very different from life in Italy. Taronja School is very funny, the teachers are excellent and that’s why the classes never got boring. Thanks a lot to Victor and Lucia for everything! VIVA VALENCIA! Name: Ambrosino,  Bionda, Zaroli Country: Italia Hi! We are Roberto, Manuel, Beatrice and Giulia and we are from Italy. We’ve been here for a week to study and improve our Spanish.

I had two beautiful weeks. The teachers are innovative, great and motivate you. The relacion between quality and price  is perfect. Andrea B.

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. Leigh Elizabeth New Zealand
