Learn to speak Spanish – as you become a local in your neighbourhood – while living in the heart of Valencia for as little as 1 week, or up to 12 weeks, on this unforgettable trip.
What better way to learn a language than to jump right into the deep end? Engaging with the community as you live like a local in one of the most passionate countries in the world.
On this done-for-you trip, you’ll get everything you need to live in Valencia while learning Spanish, including:
Immerse yourself in the vibrant Spanish culture shaped by Romans, Moors and Catholic Monarchs. Discover flavourful cuisine, era-defining art and pristine Mediterranean beaches that will make you consider Spain as your forever home. Start by learning the language while residing among the locals to truly integrate into the Spanish way of life.
Imagine strolling through Spanish streets, enjoying sidewalk cafes, flamenco lessons in parks and encounters with street performers, feeling the contagious zest for life that defines Spain. Living within a Spanish community accelerates your language skills as you practice with your neighbours day and night.
Speaking Spanish opens doors to new travel experiences as locals appreciate foreigners making an effort. Complete sentences with regional colloquialisms and slang, and you'll charm your way as the most popular traveller in any Spanish-speaking country.
This trip is perfect for those seeking an immersive experience, scratching beneath the surface of Spain to embrace its authentic essence.
And when you book with Global, you book with the best. You get the ultimate study experience, hassle-free.

Immersing yourself in a different culture is by far the best way to go about learning a new language, but we are all human here, we know it can be a little daunting to just launch yourself into a whole other way of life.
We have specially designed this trip to make sure you are as comfortable as possible when you embark on your Spanish adventure.
Our backup is legendary. You will have the support of your Trip Coordinator before you go and then there is a dedicated team on the ground to make sure everything runs smoothly and you never feel out of place in your new Spanish home.
We will transfer you to your accommodation, settle you in and even take you out to experience Valencia at night to make sure you get comfortable with the city before you even kick-off.
Your actual course is right in the heart of Valencia and will include 20 hours of Spanish lessons per week.
The teaching style is all about learning Spanish for real situations, not a load of useless phrases. You will face daily situations in the class with local people who will help you with the more conversational side, how people really speak in Spain, rather than what you learn from a book or app.
Then, when your course is done for the day, you can head out and explore this dynamic city, and make it your home away from home.
This course is much more in-depth than most language courses. We don’t believe in surface learning, we want to immerse you in the language, to feel the joy in it. We want you to surprise that old lady in the local shop when you speak like a true Valencian.
You will come away from this not just with Spanish language skills, but with a ton of confidence and a phone list of new friends from all over the world, who you can hopefully visit on another trip.
A trip like this is great for the resume/CV, great for your own growth and development and great for the world, as you forge friendships and discover how different cultures work.
You must do a Spanish language test before you go so you know which level to start on.
Flights, travel insurance, visa, souvenirs & spending money.
For the most authentic experience, you’ll stay in a private room in a homestay with a local family.
At an additional cost, you could stay in a shared flat or hostel instead.
Our Study trips are designed to get you set up in your new life overseas – learning new skills from the locals – as smoothly as possible. Our goal is to save you time, money, and stress while eliminating the risk of returning home early. Here’s how we do it:
We’re with you from the moment you get started. You’ll be assigned a dedicated Trip Coordinator. They’ll guide you through the next steps and answer all your questions. They’ll also help you with the pesky visa. No guesswork – only the right paperwork, approved the first time, in your hands before you leave.
Your Personal Travel Concierge will help with flights, insurance, visas, and any add-ons you’d like for your trip. These are real humans too – no robots here.
Once you land in Spain our local team will be waiting for you at the airport. You’ll be taken straight to your initial accommodation in Valencia.
But our support doesn’t end there. We’ll be in touch during your trip to make sure everything is going smoothly. If you have any questions or concerns we’re one quick message, DM, email, or carrier pigeon away.
Our team is well travelled so you can rely on our experience. We’re with you every step of the way.

The main purpose of this trip is to get you speaking Spanish like a local while you live like a local. Which makes this trip perfect for those who want to connect more with the country, instead of simply stopping in for a visit.
Our in-country partner’s teaching style is about learning Spanish for real situations, not a load of useless phrases and big words. It’s conversational Spanish – the same way normal people speak in Spain.
These classes won’t teach you formal Spanish with strict rules and fancy words. It’s all about being able to communicate with Spanish people in Spanish, so you can let the Spanish culture become part of you as you get to know it more intimately.
One of the many reasons you’re encouraged to strike up conversation with locals after hours – even if you’re a newbie.
Living amongst the community while you’re learning the language will fast track your path to success. It will also help you integrate into the community so you’ll get to know Spain much better than most tourists.

After the last unexpected disruption to travel caused by the..c word..people are now more eager than ever to venture out and explore the world, determined not to miss out on any experiences. Global Work & Travel works on a first-in-best-dressed basis. Booking earlier ensures that you don’t miss out on the best intake, season, placements and more!

You can learn more about the great referral rewards program inside your gWorld account once you join. And for those who decide to go-it-solo, we’ve made it easier to meet other Global Travellers in the same region as you. Just like any other social platform, you’ll be able to interact, share, chat and meet with some really cool people who are doing trips just like you!
At Global Work & Travel, we share a deep love for animals and fully understand the special bond you have with your pet. We recognise the challenges of embarking on a trip without them. Due to travel restrictions, requirements, and limited pet-friendly accommodations among our host organisations, we regretfully cannot facilitate their inclusion in the journey. However, many of our customers choose to entrust their pets to a family member or friend, embark on their adventure, and return home to wagging tails and furry cuddles.
We know that life can get in the way of travel, so all our trips come with a great deal of flexibility. In most cases, if you cannot travel on your selected date, you can place your trip on hold to deal with whatever is holding you back, and continue in the future without incurring any penalty. You may also have the option of transferring to an entirely different trip and destination as well, or even transferring your trip to a friend or family member. In the event that you need to outright cancel your trip, if you give us 84* days notice you can do so with only a 50% cancellation fee. Your refund of the balance will come in the form of a Store Credit which you can put toward any other trip that we offer, including tours through third-party providers, as well as holidays through DealsAway.com, and is valid for 2 years from date of issue. As international travel can be complex, your options are based on the progress of your trip organisation and our support team can assist you in finding the best solution for your needs.
