This field trip, organized by our department head Mr. Fran, was designed to help our Spanish learners immerse themselves in various aspects of Spanish-speaking cultures.
“The Cervantes Institute is a public institution established by the Spanish government in 1991 with the aim of promoting and teaching the Spanish language, as well as spreading the culture of Spanish-speaking countries. It is present in 90 cities in 43 countries on 5 continents, making it the world’s largest organization dedicated to promoting the teaching of the Spanish language and culture. In 2005, he was awarded the Prince of Asturias Award, in the category of Communication and Humanities.
The Cervantes Institute has had an auditorium in Bratislava since 2004 thanks to a cooperation agreement with the University of Economics in Bratislava.
Since September 2019, Aula Cervantes has been located atΒ the Faculty of Arts of the Comenius University , thanks to the new cooperation agreement between the Cervantes Institute and this prestigious university.”

During our visit to the Instituto Cervantes in Bratislava, our students learned about the history of the institute, its educational programs, and its role in promoting Spanish worldwide. They saw data showing the global importance of Spanish and explored different language courses, support services, and official tests the institute offers.

One of the highlights was a fun activity led by the instructors at the Instituto, focused on Spainβs geography and culture. Using a map and cards that listed major Spanish landmarks along with common verbs and vocabulary, our students practiced their Spanish by connecting cultural features to specific regions and describing the landscapes.

We wrapped up our trip with a lively introduction to Spanish culture at the Aula Cervantes. Our students experienced traditional Flamenco dancing and learned about famous Spanish festivals like “Las Fallas.”
Additionally, we took a pleasant walk through the instituteβs art exhibition, where our students enjoyed viewing works of Spanish fine arts, adding to their appreciation of Spain’s rich cultural heritage.
