"In accordance with International House philosophy, teaching is based on the rapid acquisition and progress in confidence on the part of the student, focused in key points of communication and thanks to an atmosphere which is constantly and consistently dynamic and friendly.

In a typical class you will:

- work in pairs and groups as well as individually;
- use a text book recommended by the course director;
- employ all types of learning materials and texts prepared by your teacher;
- listen to CD's and watch DVD's selected for their didactic relevance;
- participate in language games designed as learning support.

IH Madrid guarantees that that all class hours will be given as promised. IH Madrid maintains a team of substitute teachers on standby to cover any teacher absence due to illness or any other reason that may unavoidably detain the regular teacher from giving their regular class. These substitute teachers will always have the same training, qualifications and experience as your regular teacher."
