Description of school:

Saint Gabriel, founded in 1990 and a member of ACEIA (FECEI) is a rapidly growing school with 3 of our own centres, three after school programs and important local and international contracts.

We are a Cambridge exam preparation centre and a Trinity examination centre. We were awarded the prestigious Master´s prize in 2015-2016 for our dedication to our students´ and their excellent results.

Saint Gabriel Bormujos specialises in teaching infants, children and teenagers up to C1 level and we are open from 16.00 to 20.30. It is a modern centre with loyal students and families who are extremely dedicated to their progress.

We offer annual courses, intensives and individually designed one2one lessons. In class, we follow a course book syllabus but we also cherish the creativity our teachers bring.

Most of our classrooms are equipped with the latest e-beam technology.

We have a team teaching system whereby you will be paired with a teaching partner and teach the students different skills and we are proud of having a fantastic working atmosphere in our team.

This centre has a Yellow Bus which we use to transport our teachers to the centre which is just 10 minutes outside the city centre of Seville, so our team doesn’t have to waste time worrying about taking public transport or arranging transport of their own.

The teachers who work here in the afternoons also take part in our other important projects in the mornings.

We don´t only teach English but Spanish too so we´d be happy to offer you Spanish classes and even assist you in achieving a DELE certificate.
