Term: Not Applicable

Description: The Spanish Classes
Our Guatemala Language School opened in 2001 in a beautiful remodelled colonial home located just a few blocks from the Central Park of Antigua.

Like all of our language programmes, you have the option of learning Spanish and then adding a volunteering placement of your choice; alternatively, you can just learn Spanish and then travel around Latin America. Learning Spanish in Guatemala should be considered if you wish to travel Central or South America, however, a good knowledge of the language would be essential if you wish to volunteer on a social placement.

As well as teaching Spanish to help gap trip students work and travel Latin America, the language school also organises activities such as:
Orientation walk of Antigua
Visits to local areas of interest, like Museums, Plantations and Farms
Visits to neighbouring (indigenous) villages
Salsa classes, cultural classes, parties, fiestas and sports days
Spanish language videos & movies
Extra Guatemala volunteer options

Highlights: Guatemala, in the heart of Central America, is an excellent place to learn Spanish, do volunteer work and travel. With so much history, culture and natural beauty, it is a unique and authentic place to spend some time.
