Tenidiomas... not just a language

Jerez de la Frontera is the perfect place in which to practice and rapidly improve your Spanish thanks to the open, friendly character of the local Jerezano people.

A medium-sized city with just over 200,000 inhabitants, yet far removed from the tourism of the crowded coastal resorts and the larger provincial capitals; a place which has all the amenities of a city (theatre, shopping areas and international airport) but managing to preserve its traditions and a way of life which is still 100% Spanish and above all Andalusian, a picturesque old city centre steeped in history, from the remains of the 11th century Moorish castle to the 17th century mansion houses of the local nobility.

Climate

Strategically located between the white sand beaches of the Atlantic coast and the picturesque mountain villages of the Sierra, you are never at a loss for things to do in this part of the world. The local climate, unique in Europe and even within Spain itself, boasts an average of 290 days of sun per year and has average winter temperatures of 10º C, meaning that local life takes place outdoors in the street cafés and palm fringed, cobble stoned squares of the city centre.

Culture

Here in Jerez you are given the opportunity to put into practice what you learn in the classroom - be it browsing the picturesque local fish market, or on a visit to one of the local sherry companies to learn first-hand the secrets of the famous sherry wines and brandy of Jerez, at the Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art where you can watch the horsemen putting the famous Cartujano horses through their paces, and in the small flamenco peñas where amateurs and friends get together to discuss, sing and dance flamenco.
