The Spanish School

All participants who are not confident about their Spanish skills are recommended to take classes at our Spanish school. The school is an institution created to offer personalised instruction in the learning of Spanish as a second language.

Classes are held Monday through to Friday from 8:00-12:00 and 2:00-6:00 so you can choose between morning or afternoon lessons.

Students and teachers work one-on-one, which allows each student to work at his/her individual level. Particular emphasis is placed on flexibility as students can pick the areas they wish to focus on, such as conversation, comprehension or writing. All of our teachers are native speakers with a university degree in Spanish and have a minimum of 10 years experience in teaching Spanish as a second language.

The courses at the school are suitable for beginners and for advanced students. Once you have completed 120 hours or more you can gain a certificate from the Ministry of Education of Ecuador (internal certificate’s for courses of shorter duration will be issued on request).

Location

Our language school is located in the heart of Quito just a few blocks from the lively and bustling Mariscal district.

Accommodation & Meals

During your time as a volunteer you will stay with an Ecuadorian host family. These families are carefully selected to ensure clean, comfortable and safe lodging and provide you with a fantastic opportunity for you to practice your Spanish. The host family will provide you with a private bedroom, two meals a day (breakfast and dinner).
