Special Spanish Courses

TOTAL IMMERSION PROGRAM

This program is tailored for people who need to learn Spanish quickly, mainly for employment reasons. The total immersion model leads to guaranteed success in a short period of time.
Special attention will be given to cultural differences between the western world and Latin America (barriers, codes etc.) and Spanish in (formal) work situations.

During the morning, the student begins with five hours of private classes. Immediately after classes, the teacher will take him/her out for lunch to one of the restaurants close to the Plaza. After a short break, the student and teacher visit special places for two hours. A variety of visits can be organized: tourist highlights, hospitals, shops, markets, university, etc.

The program is flexible and can be customized for individual students. On Saturday, the student will be offered a day excursion (either visit to ruins, rafting, hikes). Since all classes are individual, the course can start any Monday of the year. There are no level requirements.
