The aim of the course is to improve the four main communication skills: listening, speaking, reading and writing. It also introduces students to elements of Mexican culture while focusing on communication using lively and varied techniques.
Through our immersion program, you will be surrounded by the language 24 hours a day, giving you the chance to communicate with Hispanic people in a natural way. Our teachers are native speakers who specialize in teaching youngsters, facilitating you with a rewarding experience to learn Spanish in a fun and easy way.

This course combines the benefits of our intensive language classes, in groups of no more than 5 students, plus 2 daily hours of Advanced Placement Spanish preparation in groups with a maximum of 3 participants.
