Choosing a TY course abroad is an exciting decision — one that can truly shape your child’s future. At MaestroMío, the only Irish-owned and Instituto Cervantes–accredited Spanish school in Málaga, we understand what Irish parents value most: a safe environment, real language progress, and a program that nurtures independence, confidence, and cultural understanding.
Our TY Spanish Course in Málaga offers a complete four-week immersion experience that blends high-quality Spanish classes, guided cultural activities, and full support from our dedicated team. Students stay with trusted Spanish host families, enjoy structured daily routines, and take part in engaging excursions that make learning come alive beyond the classroom.
With over 40 years of teaching experience and a warm, personal approach, MaestroMío ensures every student feels cared for, inspired, and empowered to make the most of their Transition Year abroad.
Guidance from start to finish
From the moment students arrive in Málaga, they are welcomed and guided by our experienced staff. For example, we help them with the airport transfer and make sure they settle in smoothly at their accommodation. Throughout the program, students always know where to turn if they have doubts or questions, whether about classes, activities, or daily life. This guidance allows them to feel confident while still enjoying their independence and exploring the city.
Benefits of small groups
The Transition Year program runs in small groups, which means teachers can give personalized attention to each student. Students form stronger connections with their classmates and teachers, creating a supportive and friendly community. Small group sizes also make it easier for teachers to adapt lessons, activities, and guidance to the group’s needs, ensuring that every student has a positive and memorable experience.
Daily life
The program isn’t just about learning Spanish in a classroom. Every day combines language lessons with cultural experiences, excursions, and social activities. Students learn by exploring the city, engaging with locals, and practicing their Spanish in real situations. This natural form of language immersion helps them gain confidence, develop new skills, and broaden their worldview.
