How many students does Costa de Valencia, escuela de español have? And where do they come from? – New statistical data from 2024
It is easy to mention figures, but it is crucial to interpret them. We have to consider several aspects: we receive students from Italy for one-week courses, while others come from Japan and stay for a full year. Some book three hours of private lessons, others opt for a 36-week intensive course, and some are preparing for exams. In the end, however, the total number is 5 students.
The origin of our students can never be accurately predicted. But there are trends. Spanish is gaining ground in Nordic countries and in places like South Korea, for example. Therefore, Valencia is receiving more and more students from these countries. However, these trends are also subject to the season of the year.
Most representative countries of origin of 2024 students (in alphabetical order):
Albania, Algeria, Armenia, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Belarus, Brazil, Bulgaria, Canada, China, Congo, Côte d'Ivoire, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Great Britain, Georgia, Ghana, Greece, Hungary, India, Iran, Iraq, Ireland, Philippines, Saudi Arabia, South Korea, Spain, United States, Iceland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Lithuania, Mali, Morocco, Netherlands, Nigeria, Norway, Pakistan, Palestine, Poland, Portugal, Russia, Senegal, Serbia, Sierra Leone, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Syria, Turkey, Uganda, Ukraine, United Kingdom, United States.
We could say that we receive an average of 1500 students per year. In addition, the period between spring/summer and autumn can be considered the period of highest attendance. These figures also include school groups visiting Valencia for a week, as well as Valencia residents attending our extensive long-term courses, those preparing with us for university entrance through UNEDasiss or those preparing for Spanish nationality through the CCSE and DELE A2 exams.
