Wo werden die Sprachschüler bei Sprachreisen nach Spanien untergebracht?

On youth language trips, language students usually stay either with host families or in a student residence that is attached to the school and is supervised around the clock. The rooms are occupied by several students and therefore offer less privacy than rooms with host families, but also more opportunities for social contact with peers from all over the world. A disadvantage of student residences or halls of residence is certainly that there are often many Germans, Swiss and Austrians present, and although the schools try to ensure the best possible mix of nationalities when allocating rooms, the language students usually group together with people who speak the same language in order to communicate better. The learning effect is therefore less than with a Spanish host family, where you or your child is forced to speak Spanish.

Language study trips to Spain for adults usually offer a slightly larger selection of accommodation than language study trips for students. Host families are also offered here, as are student residences, although these are not supervised at all times for this age group. Meals are also not provided in student residences; language students are usually self-catering or can at least have breakfast in the adjoining cafeteria (not always available). Shared apartments are also offered, where students share the common rooms of an apartment and live in either a single or double room. In most cases, care is taken to ensure that you live in an apartment with people of other nationalities in order to speak as much Spanish as possible. You can also learn Spanish quickly in a host family where your host father or mother is also your Spanish teacher and you have a single room "at the teacher's home". Hotels, studios or apartments are less suitable for contact with other students.
