First Stop English began in 2016 as Pontevedra’s first and only Academy AND Bookshop, when Victor & Loreto decided to put together their ten years each of experience in teaching as well as their different approaches to raising a multilingual child, and establish not only a new location to learn in, but also a new way to learn.
We relocated in 2020 as a consequence of the pandemic, and despite the need for masks and distancing, continued to provide the best possible experience for our students.
Now you can continue to enjoy small, close-knit groups within a family atmosphere and be part of the First Stop English community.
