2. an unforgettable experience
A language trip abroad is an unforgettable experience! Students
are so enthusiastic about their time with us that even years later,
we hear from former students about their transformation: “I
arrived not knowing a word of Spanish” to “I didn’t want to go
home yet” to “this program changed my life!”
We are fully convinced that traveling through the North of Spain,
visiting a diversity of places and learning Spanish will be an
experience you will never forget.
We offer adult students and teachers complete educational and
cultural language trips in Spain for individuals and groups to learn
Spanish language and discover a diversity of places in Spain:
Madrid, Toledo, Burgos, Vitoria, San Sebastian, La Rioja,
Pamplona, and Bilbao, as well as lovely small villages in the North
of Spain.
Individuals and groups can choose one of our Scheduled
Language Tours or one of our Standard Spanish Programs:
A unique Summer Vacation in Spain from June 3 r d to 21 s t .
Language tour in Spain from June 24 t h – July 11 t h .
Autumn Language Holidays and Wine Tasting experience in
September
Standard Spanish language programs throughout the year
Language study tours are intended for adults or young adults:
public schools, universities and colleges, organizations,
professionals, groups of friends and families.
Educational Tour & Group Travel Programs for School, College &
Adult Groups or individuals are programs organized in
cooperation between ZadorSpain Spanish Schools and U.S.
language Professor Vonna Breeze-Martin.
If you have any questions about our language trips, the itineraries
in Spain, safety, guides, Spanish teachers, other staff, meals,
etc., please email or call us and we will be happy to answer any
question you might have.
We’re available to address any doubt or request, or, of course, for
your registration in a language trip in Spain!!

3. zadorspain Spanish schools
Zador Spanish schools is a language company with two
language schools in Spain, in Vitoria and in Alicante, and
long and accredited experience teaching the Spanish
language.
Zador offers professionalism, reliability and efficiency. Since
ZadorSpain opened its first Spanish language school in 1990,
they have broadened and refined their Spanish programs
thanks to the priceless feedback from the companies and
educational organizations for whom they have organized
Spanish courses and, fundamentally, to the experience that
comes from our daily work with students.
Vonna Breeze-Martin has more than two decades of
experience as Professor of Spanish at Columbia College in
California. During her tenure, she has traveled with groups of
students to Oaxaca, Cuernavaca and Guadalajara, Mexico,
as well as to the Zador Institute in Vitoria, Spain.
On the Columbia campus, Vonna Breeze-Martin has
coordinated an intercultural and educational program for
students from Central America and the Caribbean under
Georgetown University's C.A.S.S. program (Cooperative
Association of States for Scholarships), as well as directed the
Columbia Center of the Colorado-based Spring International
Language Center, an intensive EFL program.
Her love of the Spanish language and its many cultures is
well known to her students and colleagues, who voted her
“Teacher of the Year” for 2009.
She relishes the challenges, rewards and joys of language
learning and intercultural and multilingual connections."
