We take pride in offering an educational experience that reflects our dedication to quality, student success, and continuous improvements.
Over 20 Years of Quality and Innovation
Since 2002, Inhispania has evolved with each new challenge, always adapting to the changing needs of our students. Guided by over two decades of experience, we remain committed to quality, innovation, and continuous improvement, offering a learning experience shaped by the past and inspired by the future.
A Unique Location
Inhispania is located in one of Madrid’s most prestigious and dynamic areas, at the intersection of Gran Vía and Alcalá, right in the heart of the political, cultural, and economic capital of Spain.
Surrounded by key institutions like the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Culture, and the Headquarters of the Instituto Cervantes, our students are immersed not only in Spain’s cultural and educational life, but also in one of the city’s most lively areas, full of museums, restaurants, tapas bars, cafes, shops, and opportunities for leisure and exploration just steps from the classroom.
Excellence Through Personalized Learning
We work exclusively with small groups (max. 9 students, average 5–6) or private classes, ensuring each student receives the focus they need to progress quickly and confidently.
Our coherent teaching plan monitors individual development and supports you in achieving your goals at your own pace and confidence.
A Structured Learning Journey
We offer six official levels (A1–C2), aligned with the CEFR and the Plan Curricular of the Instituto Cervantes.
Courses from A1 to C1 are divided into 40 sublevels for precise placement and measurable progress.
C2 is offered exclusively in private classes for personalized advancement at the highest level.

We enrich your learning with dynamic materials and interactive workshops, creating a relevant and rewarding environment.
A Diverse, Inclusive, and Sustainable International Environment
Join a global community where no single nationality predominates. We limit, when possible, a maximum of three students from the same country per class, ensuring rich cultural exchange.
We are committed to sustainability, promoting responsible practices for a more conscious and inclusive learning space.
Focused on Teaching Quality and Professional Development
All our teachers hold university degrees in ELE and receive specific training before joining. They engage in ongoing workshops and contribute to educational projects like developing materials and integrating ICT tools.
We support continuous growth, encourage internal promotion, and collaborate with universities in the practical training of new teaching professionals.
