COURSES
Spanish course
* One-on-one instruction or group lessons
* 3 hours per day (15 hours weekly)
* From Monday through Friday
* All levels
* Schedule (two options):
Mornings (9:00-12:00) or Afternoons (4:00-7:00 PM)
* Two teachers (one for grammar, another for conversation)
Our one-on-one program is designed to develop your ability to speak Spanish, whether you are a total beginner, or an advanced student. You will see the results from the very first lesson!!
Each day of our program is divided into two sessions with a small break in between so that you can relax and talk to other students and teachers while you enjoy a superb view of the city from our terrace.
In the first session, we focus on Spanish grammar. We always teach grammatical structures in context, not just rote repetition. We advance at your own pace, always keeping communication as the main goal.
The second session is dedicated to improving your conversational skills in Spanish, offering you the opportunity to practice the skills you learned in the previous session. You will learn about all angles of Mexico's fascinating culture: traditions and customs, celebrations, gastronomy, legends, local issues and much more.
Afternoon cultural activities
In the afternoons, you'll have the chance to enjoy our program of cultural activities, designed to help you practice your Spanish and experience more of Mexican culture.
You might be invited to join a group visiting a local museum or to participate in discussions about different aspects of Mexican culture. You may even have the chance to sample some of the local delicacies!
