About us
Pollitos is a Spanish language school in Copenhagen for both kids and adults. It started on January 1, 2020 to meet the growing need for Spanish classes among the children of Spanish-speaking immigrants in the city. Many parents in mixed-nationality couples wanted a place where their kids could learn Spanish, connect with others, and share their culture and language.
Over time, Pollitos has become a friendly hub where students of all ages can enjoy learning Spanish and its traditions in a fun way. The school offers ballet and theater classes in Spanish, speech therapy, and even has a bookstore. With more than 100 students ranging from one to sixty years old, Pollitos arranges classes based on age and Spanish skill level. This ensures that each student gets the right attention and a good education that suits their needs.
At Pollitos, we believe in small group work, although we also arrange big events and activities. By working together in small groups, students learn new things and build skills. It's a great way to keep students engaged.
