Over a decade helping international adults to communicate with confidence in real<\/em> Spanish.<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Marisol Cort\u00e9s<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

VLL Professional Spanish is my newest venture, born from more than ten years teaching Spanish to international adults. It began in 2014 with the founding of Viva la Lengua, a Spanish school in the centre of Alicante that, until its closure in 2021, welcomed more than 1,750 students from 98 countries under my direction of a five-person team. During those years, a distinct kind of demand emerged: expats and international professionals \u2014 including staff from the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) and the team behind the Volvo Ocean Race \u2014 who needed functional, professional Spanish, alongside students preparing for official exams as part of their academic and professional journeys.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I created VLL Professional Spanish to answer that demand properly, with a defined programme, brand and pricing structure of its own.<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Real-World Practicality<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Spanish as a tool for communication, adapted to your professional and personal context.<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Specialisation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Focus on specific needs, rather than trying to be everything to everyone.
