This is not a Spanish course nor do we give Spanish lessons as such. Learning and improvement comes naturally as week by week you encounter the spoken language in conversation in a social setting or from entertaining guest speakers. Many find this style of learning more effective and far more enjoyable than a formal Spanish course or lessons.

He tenido el placer, el orgullo, de contribuir al programa de actividades del Círculo con una charla anual desde 1997. Querría felicitar al Círculo por su extraordinaria labor de difusión y enriquecimiento cultural en la ciudad de Bradford.

There are few places where you can go along and practise speaking and listening in another language. When cycling the Camino de Santiago de Compostella there were many occasions where I had to use my Spanish. Read more…

Los miembros de la sección son muy simpáticos y hacen sentir muy bienvenidos a todos aquellos que son nuevos. Fue así como me fui quedando y ahora puedo decir que cuento con varios amigos en el círculo. Read more…

Bradford Circle for Foreign Languages
10 Eldon Place, Manningham Lane,
Bradford, West Yorkshire. BD1 3AZ.
Hope to see you soon!
My Spanish is very basic can I still join?
Absolutely! We welcome and cater for all abilities. The aim is to maintain and develop language skills. Some people prefer to just listen until they are confident enough to join in… that is absolutely fine. Mistakes and getting it wrong is how we improve most.
Do I have to commit to every week?
Come as often or as little as you wish.
Will I be the only newcomer?
We constantly welcome new members and make sure they settle in. The atmosphere is very informal.
I don't live near Bradford, can I still come?
Of course. We think it’s worth travelling for. The Bradford Circle For Foreign Languages is the only group of it’s kind in the UK. We have been featured on TV and members travel from far and wide (even Lancashire) and from all across West Yorkshire to take advantage of the Circle’s unique benefits.
