About International House IH Barcelona
International House Barcelona was founded in 1972 and has since grown
into a major centre for language teaching, teacher training, study
tours and related activities.
There are six main areas of activity in the school:
- Training teachers of Spanish and English
- Teaching English (as well as Chinese, German and French) to people and
companies in the Barcelona area
- Teaching Spanish to students from all over the world
- Translation courses
- Translation services (ih-translation.com)
- Teaching Spanish to students from all over the world
- Sending students from Spain to study languages abroad
What makes International House special?
International House is not quite like most other language schools. We've
been around longer than most, and we have excellent premises in the
centre of Barcelona. However, what really makes us stand out from the
crowd is the quality of our teaching. We don't just teach language
courses; we also train language teachers - which includes, of course,
our own - to exacting standards. And it's that that makes us special...
International House Eastern Spain
IH Barcelona also belongs to the IH Eastern Spain group of language
schools, which comprises seven centres in the north-east of Spain

Mallorca, Sabadell, Tarragona, Terrassa and Zaragoza.
IH Spain
In addition, IH Barcelona is one of the four schools in the IH Spain
organization, which comprises language and teacher training centres
in Barcelona, Córdoba, Madrid, Palma de Mallorca, San Sebastian,
Seville, Valladolid and Vejer de la Frontera.
The International House World Organisation
Founded in 1953, International House is a network of more than 130
schools around the world, all committed to the highest standards
in education and business.
A key aim of International House is to raise the standards of language
teaching around the world. One important way in which we do this is through
Teacher Training courses for which International House has a world-wide
reputation. We train our own (as well as many other schools') teachers
to enable language students to learn the language of their choice simply,
quickly and efficiently in a rich linguistic and cultural environment. To ensure that every school maintains the high standards that are specified
in the Affiliation Agreement, an external assessor visits each school
every two years and conducts a thorough investigation into all aspects
of the school's activities. These visits ensure that the unparalleled
reputation International House enjoys for the quality of its services
is safeguarded.
