The principal objective of the schools we work with is the teaching of Spanish as a Second Language, along with introducing the student to the cultural values and natural wealth which our beautiful country offers. The Spanish Schools we work with were created as a response to  the need that Costa Rica has  for a serious and professional language school that offers, in addition to the customary language courses that are taught in  this country, a more specialized and personalized program. College credit can be arranged.

The Schools teaching methods emphasize communication, and to this end we use the most modern techniques, with didactic materials, audiovisuals, and books written by the Institute’s professors along with field trips and excursions and home stays with highly qualified Costa Rican host families.
