English Days for schools in Barcelona
A different day. All in English
English Days are themed days where English takes centre stage for a whole day. Rotating workshops in cooking, drama, robotics, art and science experiments, adapted by age group and led by native teachers. No need to reorganise the school year or change the curriculum: it’s a one-off activity that’s set up and packed away in a day.
Five disciplines to build the day your way.
- MasterChef-style cooking
- Drama and improv
- Robotics and coding
- Art and science experiments
A whole day using the language, not studying it.
- 100% in English from start to finish
- Focus on participation and fluency

English Days and one-off English activities for primary and secondary schools in Barcelona
Cooking workshop in English
Inspired by shows like MasterChef. Students prepare recipes following instructions in English: they read, ask for ingredients, measure and describe what they’re doing. The vocabulary sticks because it’s linked to an action and a result they get to taste at the end, which is the best motivation there is. It’s usually the favourite workshop, in both primary and secondary schools.
Drama workshop in English
Drama builds language skills and confidence at the same time. Through improv games, performances and creative activities, students explore the language in a different way and end up speaking in front of others without the pressure of a conventional class. It’s the workshop where the jump in speaking is most noticeable.
Robotics workshop in English
Technology sparks the interest of many young people, and here we use it as an excuse for the language. Students build and program robots, solve challenges and work in teams, all while communicating in English. They improve their technical vocabulary and their ability to explain a process, which is one of the hardest things to achieve in a classroom.
Art workshop in English
Creative activities where students practise the language while exploring different art techniques and materials. As well as vocabulary, they work on concentration, attention and teamwork. It works especially well with students who freeze when speaking: with their hands busy, the embarrassment goes down.
Science experiments workshop in English
Fun, surprising experiments with scientific vocabulary in English. Students explore real principles, from mixing substances to triggering chemical reactions, and have to describe what they observe and predict what will happen. It fits really well with schools that already work on projects or teach subjects in English.
