SPANISH LANGUAGE COURSES
Since we want you to learn Spanish in the most effective
way possible, the courses on offer are one-on-one (one student per class)
and one-on-two (two students per class). Classes are from Monday to Saturday,
but you will only have school five days a week. On your day off you can
explore Pucón’s beautiful surroundings. You can start your
course any day of the week. One class lasts 60 minutes
and you will attend two or three classes per day.
The language school also provides you with additional material like Spanish
magazines or study reviews to give you the opportunity to do some studying
on your own.
Courses are divided into two different levels of language: the beginner level, which is mainly focused on basic communication and grammar in daily life situations, and the advanced level, which mainly deals with problems and texts of the Mapuche culture (the indigenous people of this region) and also includes a visit to the Mapuche cultural center Kurarewe.
