School Location and Curriculum

The Language Centre is located in Vigo, which is the biggest city in Galicia. It is on the Atlantic coast, between Santiago de Compostela and Portugal and is surrounded by one of the most breathtaking landscapes of the Iberian Peninsula a rests on a beautiful bay of the same name. Vigo has a mild climate and wonderful beaches, which make it one of the major tourist destinations in the region. It is a young city, characterized by its university atmosphere, intense cultural and artistic activity
