From top to bottom, this
is a quality Spanish language school. Its facilities are among
the best found in this region of Mexico, and to match this,
the Spanish school has excellent instructors and uses well organized
materials for Spanish language instruction. This combination
of excellent facilities and great teachers allows students learn
Spanish in a short period of time while also being immersed
in the Mexican culture.
The Spanish language school
is located in the heart of Oaxaca's Historical Center, just
a couple of blocks from the beautiful Santo Domingo ex-convent
and 4 blocks from Oaxaca's "Zocalo" (downtown square).
Due to the Spanish school's location, students are surrounded
by a number of cafes, art galleries, museums, shops and Internet
cafes. The Spanish language school is set in a typical colonial
building with a large main patio where students get together
during the breaks. This old style construction with thick colonial
walls keeps the classrooms cool throughout the year. The building
is built in the typical colonial style so common in this part
of Mexico. This style of architecture creates a relaxed and
inviting atmosphere that encourages intensive learning.
In addition to the excellent
programs, beautiful setting and professional staff, the Spanish
language school offers a language lab to assist with the students´
communication skills. There is an on-campus library stocked
with books on grammar, the local culture, religion and travel
in Mexico, and many other publications relating to Mexico.
Besides offering excellent
Spanish language programs, the Spanish language school also
offers (and or assists in arranging) a variety of interesting
cultural activities and weekend excursions allowing student
the chance to really get to know this part of Mexico.
As with many of our
other schools, this Spanish language school not only provides
general Spanish language study, but can also provide specialized
language instruction.
