Learning Spanish in Barcelona
Barcelona is full of Spanish language schools where you can learn
Spanish and/or Catalan. Most of them offer intensive courses that
run during the day; from one week or for as many weeks as you require.
If you're working in Spain, then you will need to find an evening
course to learn Castellano (Spanish). There are fewer options
here but I found four that all seem suitable (the four language
schools listed below also offer daytime intensive classes).
All these evening courses run over two evenings a week, and range
between 3-6 hours a week. The prices are approximately €330-€400
for 10-12 weeks of lessons - Diloga is the best value for money.
Spanish Language Schools in Barcelona
Diloga is a great little school in the centre of Gracia.
I attended classes here over several months, the quality of teaching
is good, the teachers don't change very often, the class sizes
are small and it's excellent value for money. Evening classes are
3 hours a week, split over two evenings.

Speak Easy offer a 12 week course of 6 hours per week.
They are situated in Ronda Universitat 7, very near to Placa Cataluña.

I took lessons with Speak Easy for several months and was happy
with my course. I did six hours per week (three hours per day).
You have the choice of Monday and Wednesday or Tuesday and Thursday.
My only dislike was that the teachers tended to get changed at the
end of the term, but apart from this the course went well.
Babylon Idiomas. I have no experience of this school, but
have listed them as they are one of the few to offer evening classes.
Besides giving their students the opportunity to learn Spanish in Spain, Babylon Idiomas also organizes other activities such as salsa and culture classes, movie nights and excursions to for example museums. In this way the students can improve their language skills and enjoy the beautiful city of Barcelona at the same time.
International House, I attended the intercambio club that
is held at International House and found it a good way to practise
my Spanish. Most of the students I spoke to who were attending classes
here were very pleased with their course.

Intensive Spanish Language Courses
Of all the intensive language courses listed here, I only have feedback on Don Quijote. I know of several students who have studied at the Don Quijote school in Barcelona all of whom were very happy with their courses.
Many people come to Barcelona just to take a Spanish language course abroad, where the teachers are native Spanish speakers and you can enjoy the city, its nightlife and restaurants. Many of these schools will also help you find accommodation and include extra curriculum activities aimed at improving your language skills and building relations with your classmates.
The Escola Oficial d'Idiomes Barcelona was recommended to me, but they don't do evening classes.
