“I went to Costa Rica without any knowledge of Spanish. However, I felt at home and soon I was able to communicate with Costa Ricans. I have not only learned Spanish now, but also I have made a lot of friends with both the other students as well as the teachers. If you attend this school, I am sure you will have the time of your life!”

“During my eight weeks studying in Manuel Antonio, I found the teachers to be dedicated and very capable. As the class sizes are kept small, I was able to focus on what I needed to learn and I greatly increased my speaking ability. I met students from all over the world and enjoyed the culture of Costa Rica. I highly recommend the school to anyone.”

“When I arrived in Costa Rica, I was somewhat anxious because I did not know anyone and my Spanish was basic. By the time I left (two months later), I was close to fluent in Spanish and had met many new friends from several different countries. I also felt welcomed into the ‘family’ at the school which includes its teachers, staff, students, etc. All of the connections I made in Costa Rica have had a lasting impact even to this day.”

"What I like about [this school] is the attention that the entire staff demonstrates with regard to all aspects of the study abroad experience. The classes, housing and tour arrangements could not be any better. Since I take students from the United States to Costa Rica every year, I had to find a well established institute with reliable personnel. After interviewing directors from various schools as well as visiting their premises, I had no difficulty choosing this school. Their staff will do everything possible to help the student master the Spanish language in a very friendly environment. They are also there to help in any situation that may arise. My students and I are thoroughly satisfied."
