Who We Are

Spanish Learning Built Around People, Not Textbooks Alone

The Spanish Schoolhouse is a Canadian Spanish language education provider that has helped learners connect with Spanish language and culture since 2004. Our programs are designed to make learning active, practical and welcoming.

For children and teens, The Spanish Schoolhouse offers engaging learning in the Greater Toronto Area. Individual adult Spanish learning is provided through TOSS / The Online Spanish Schoolhouse, our dedicated adult-learning website, with online options available worldwide.

Our goal is not simply to teach vocabulary. We help students become more comfortable expressing themselves, understanding other cultures and using Spanish with growing confidence.
