Student Comments

I studied for four weeks at the Ixchel Spanish School in Antigua and rapidly improved my Spanish. The teachers are very nice and assist wherever possible to make learning Spanish easier. For me it was a unique experience with lots of activities and a great studying atmosphere. I recommend this school to anyone and look forward to returning here to further improve my Spanish.

I can thoroughly recommend the school both for academic excellence and for its activities and ambiance. I had two teachers whilst learning Spanish and both were attentive and knowledgeable. The learning structure was methodical and practical and I soon found that I understood many things that were confusing before. I have no regrets about my choice.
