About Your Location

Cartagena overflows with romanticism and is shrouded in history from when the Spanish first discovered gold in the tombs of Sinu to the five dreadful sieges on the city by pirates in the 16th century, including the most famous (or infamous) one which was led by Sir Francis Drake!

Cartagena, Colombia is often called Cartagena of the Indies. The historic centeris within the old city walls built by the Spanish between the 16th and 18th centuries. Getsemaní is the place for street art with less expensive restaurants and vibrant community life, while Boca Grande provides a stretch of more upscale hotels.

This UNESCO World Heritage Site is surrounded by an impressive 8 mile (13km) colonial stonewall and is made up of gorgeous cobblestone alleys in which you will find elegant balconies packed with colorful flowers, massive churches and eye-catching terraces.

Spanish Lessons

The classes are held in our Spanish school, housed in a restored colonial building and offers all the facilities to have a good learning experience: Internet access, air conditioning, a small library, video projectors, audio material, TV, and DVD players. The school has a patio and a coffee shop where you can take a break while enjoying a good Colombian coffee

The team of teachers is very well prepared to offer our students quality service and a professional education, and the teachers are highly qualified, highly motivated and experienced. Teachers are not chosen only based on their university studies, but also based on their personality. There is ongoing focus on update, sharing and improving the teaching methods to ensure that the students get the most out of their Spanish classes.
The learning materials given to our students are well prepared by the members of our team. This material contains all the different aspects of the language with a focus on Colombian culture.

The groups are very small (maximum 8 students) in order to ensure that special individual attention is given to all the students. The small group size also enables easier exchange between the teacher and the students.

Intensive course: 30 lessons per week from Monday to Friday
On arrival students take the entry test and after being accurately analyzed, the students join the corresponding level. The intensive Spanish course is ideal for students who want to improve their Spanish quicker. This course is composed of 30 Spanish lessons per week. There are four lessons in the morning as well as two additional conversation lessons, which allows putting theory into practice.
