Our Spanish School in Pucón, Chile
 Our Spanish school in Pucón Chile, started as a project of several Spanish language teachers, all of them with years of experience in teaching Spanish. The teachers are native Spanish speakers, but also speak English. Of course, the language used in classes is Spanish.
In order to obtain maximum results within a short time, and spend your precious vacation time in the most effective way, we focus on teaching one on one or one on two. By this, we adjust the material and learning speed to your individual needs and learning abilities. Group classes are available from November to March.
For those who wish to immerse themselves completely in the Spanish language we offer home stay programs: for the time of your classes you live with a Chilean family. Being confronted with the Spanish language all day long really improves your comprehension and fluency. The home stay families are carefully chosen, not only offering "bed and breakfast", but sharing their lives with you for the time of your stay.
Pucon is the center of outdoor activities and adventure tourism in the Lakes district. It is a nice small town, easy to navigate on foot. Our Spanish school in Pucón, Chile is situated too blocks from main street (O' Higgins), in front of the hospital. All home stay families are within a 15 minutes walking distance from the school; and we also provide bicycles for the home stay guests.

Spanish Courses in Pucón, Chile - Accommodation
Home stay
 While studying Spanish abroad you are living with a Chilean family, sharing their lives for some time. Home stay gives you the chance of total immersion in the Spanish language, using what you've learned at school now in real life. This has much better results if you can speak some Spanish, e.g. from the second week on, when some conversation is possible. Our families are carefully chosen. Some speak some English, but most of them only Spanish. Our Home stay program is part of the studies, not just a budget family pension. For this reason, our home stay families take only one guest at a time (in some exceptions couples).
Home stay is only available together with weekly classes.
The home stay program includes:
- Accommodation
- You have your own room (Couples: double) private or shared bathroom. 7 nights.
- Breakfast, dinner, lunch. You share the meals with the family, in some families vegetarian food is possible.
- Bicycle - If you stay in families more than 10 minutes walking away from school, you have a city bike at your disposal.
- Pick up/ staying in touch. On the first day your teacher takes you to your family and makes the first contact. The school is in permanent contact with the families and will of course help you with any problems or misunderstandings.
- Arrival / departure. You arrive the day before your classes start in the evening and leave in the morning of your 7th day
