Teaching languages in Barcelona
The journey
How your journey starts
We teach languages to children, teenagers and adults. Choose the option that suits you best and we'll explain how to get started.
- 01
Group courses for learners with previous knowledge
For adults who want to join a group class. If you don't know your level, you can take a free placement test. If you already know your level, the test is not necessary.
- 02
Starting from scratch
If you are starting from scratch, you do not need to take a placement test.
- 03
Private and semi-private classes
It's simple: we'll talk to you and organise the classes.
- 04
Children and teenagers
Children and teenagers usually join groups according to their school year and age. If they have had more exposure to the language, we will consider whether a placement test would be helpful.

Reviews
What our students say
Real reviews from Academia Avanç students, published with their permission.
“The best language school I have ever studied at! I have been learning French here for years and I have also taken an English course, and I am delighted! They are professional but extremely friendly at the same time, and the classes are fun and motivating.”
Mariona S.
French B1 course
Translation of the original review
“Finding Acadèmia Avanç was a great discovery and I would recommend it to anyone without the slightest doubt. The groups are small, the attention is personal and the teachers are demanding, understanding and, above all, excellently prepared. All of this makes learning easy and, if you put in a little of your own effort, you really see your level improve.”
Laia C.
English B2 course
Translation of the original review
“At Avanç I found the professionalism and the rigour I was looking for in a school to learn a language. In all this time attending classes I have seen how my progress in French has helped me move forward and feel more confident in my professional career.”
