More space, the same essence: Welcome to the new home of Jaleo Madrid! 🎨✨

Students learning Spanish in a Modern Classroom with Digital Board at Jaleo Madrid

September is always a time for fresh starts, but this year at Jaleo, we’re celebrating big.

If you’ve passed by our school over the summer or followed us on social media, you’ll know we’ve experienced a few weeks of… well, quite a bit of jaleo! Between hammers, paint, cables, and a lot of excitement, we’ve been working behind the scenes to completely transform our language center.

The reason? For the first time since we opened our doors, the space is 100% ours. After sharing the premises with another study center since our beginnings, this summer we acquired the entire space to give it our personal touch, fill every corner with light, and tailor the facilities to exactly what our students need.

Here is everything behind this transformation and what you’ll discover when you step inside. 👇

8 classrooms, more technology, and our signature colors

Bright and colourful corners designed to make you feel right at home in Madrid.

We wanted the school to be not only bigger, but also a more comfortable, modern, and versatile environment to aprender español en Madrid. Here are the key upgrades you’ll notice right away:

  • From 6 to 8 classrooms: We’ve expanded our capacity so we can continue offering small group classes while welcoming more international students from around the world.
  • Classrooms with character: We’re saying goodbye to color names. From now on, each of our 8 classrooms is named after one of our favorite words in Spanish. Can you imagine taking your lesson in room Verbena o Ojalá?
  • Advanced learning technology: We’ve upgraded from 2 to 6 state-of-the-art interactive digital whiteboards to make lessons even more dynamic, visual, and engaging.
  • Information display at reception: A new reception screen helps you stay up to date with our cultural activities, schedules, and news at a glance.
  • Upgraded Wi-Fi and climate control: High-speed internet and optimal temperature are essential for comfortable, focused learning.

A workspace tailored for our teaching team 👩‍🏫

The heart of Jaleo Madrid is our teaching staff. As part of the renovation, we’ve redesigned a dedicated teachers’ room. It offers our instructors an independent space to prepare lesson materials while maintaining an open-plan concept that fosters collaboration and creative idea-sharing.

New spaces, the same family ❤️

We’ve refreshed our colors, brought in more natural light, and installed modern technology. However, the core of Jaleo remains unchanged: our people and our welcoming atmosphere.

We designed the new space to reflect how we teach Spanish: a warm, vibrant, and friendly hub where you can learn the language, make lifelong friends, and feel right at home in Madrid.

Come and visit our renovated school!

¿Merece la pena hacer un intercambio de idiomas?

Cuando estudiamos un idioma – sobre todo si vivimos fuera -, intentamos mejorarlo de todas las maneras posibles. Es habitual que las personas coloquen post-it en los objetos de la casa para recordar cómo se dicen en la nueva lengua, e incluso ver cualquier programa en la televisión para que nuestra oreja se acostumbre al idioma. Otro método que no suele faltar es el del intercambio de idiomas. A los profes de Jaleo nos suelen preguntar si el intercambio de idiomas es una buena forma de aprender español. Al igual que decimos en clase, la respuesta corta es sí. Sin embargo, la cuestión es un poco más compleja y vamos a intentar darte la respuesta más completa en las siguientes líneas. El intercambio de idiomas no es para ti si

Un añito de Jaleo Madrid

Hace un año no nos podíamos imaginar que íbamos a estar en el confinamiento actual. Hace justo doce meses estábamos viviendo el nacimiento de Jaleo Madrid. El parto de nuestra escuela no fue como nosotros nos imaginábamos, pero al final todo ha salido bien. Incluso mejor de lo que cabía esperar. Cuando nos quedamos embarazados de nuestra cooperativa, nos quedaba muy lejos el momento en el que estamos ahora. Durante el embarazo y el primer año de vida de nuestra escuela hemos vivido situaciones de gran alegría y de orgullo, aunque no podemos negar que, como todos los padres primerizos, también hemos tenido nuestros instantes de frustración o de miedo. Sin embargo, esto es algo que ya sabíamos cuando comenzamos nuestra aventura y como buenos profesores, hemos sabido aprender de
