Spanish wine, afternoon naps, salsa dancing, and delicious tapas – who
doesn’t love the perfectly relaxed yet vibrant culture that Spain has to offer? But if you don’t want to stick out like a tourist while you're visiting, and love the idea of getting down with the locals, then why not pick up some words and phrases other than “
Hola, cómo estás?”. Here are some of the best Spanish courses and classes available around Hong Kong, to help you get started.

The Spanish Cultural Association of Hong Kong (SCAHK)
With 20 native Spanish teachers, many of whom have degrees or masters in teaching – as well as experience working in educational institutions like HKU, CUHK, and ESF – SCAHK is the biggest Spanish school in Hong Kong. Offering the best value for money, in terms of the number of students per class, adult group courses are limited to a maximum of six students, while the typical class size for kids and teenagers is three to four student. This ensures that teachers can closely follow up on each student’s progress, allowing plenty of interaction between teachers and classmates.
SCAHK also holds regular free events such as Spanish cooking classes, guitar lessons, and even boat trips for students to learn about Spanish culture outside of the classroom. And if you feel like taking your Spanish skills to the next level, SCAHK is also one of the very few officially accredited schools for the SIELE exam in Hong Kong, where students can get officially certified by the Spanish Ministry of Education.
Price: Kids and teens program - $1,100 for 4 lessons per month (1 hr per class)
Adults program - $3,800 for a 24-hour course (2 hr per class)
