School Testimonials
“I definitely recommend spending time at this school. As a general matter, Peruvians speak good Spanish, so it’s a good place to learn Spanish. In addition, the school in Miraflores is very good. The teachers and staff are not only good at their jobs, they are also genuinely nice (and fun) people – I consider my teacher, the director and the activities director friends now (and I think everyone in the school had a similar experience).” Michael Krawitz, USA
“The time that I spent in Lima was terrific! It is a great city and a really interesting place to learn lot about an important piece of Latin American culture. My teacher was a classy guy. Everyday we covered a lot of different areas of the Spanish language and I found his teaching approach to be very effective. The activities director organized all sorts of interesting things for us to do in the evenings and afternoons after classes. My housing was also a great experience. I lived with a family a few blocks away from the school in the Miraflores neighborhood. All in all, I am happy to say that my dealings with this school have been fantastic.” Matt Gilbert, USA
