he Academia de Español Guatemala's College Accredited program, which is endorsed by both the Ministerio de Educación de Guatemala according to agreement No. 098-94 and the Instituto Guatemalteco de Turismo according to agreement No. 24-95-D, offers Total Immersion Study. Even those who have had no prior Spanish exposure will be completing basic Spanish phrases after the first day! Classes are held Monday through Friday from 8:00-12:00 and 2:00-5:00.

Students and teachers work one-on-one, which allows each student to work at his/her individual level. We place particular emphasis on flexibility: students pick the areas they wish to emphasize - conversation, comprehension, writing, etc. The school offers a relaxed tranquil environment. Some students enjoy working in the park or strolling through town with their professors. A few have even been known to study over a beer in a local cantina!

. . . . The student's schedule is entirely up to the student - our teachers are here for you. All of our teachers have a minimum of 8 years experience in teaching Spanish as a second language, and unlike other schools, we provide them with yearly contracts which enables us to maintain our superb teaching staff. Gustavo, our general manager, Luisa, the English-speaking student coordinator and Armando, the housing and activities coordinator each take a personal interest in each student. Between them they can arrange anything from root canals to beach vacations. The entire staff works together to make our school the best it can be.
The school offers both College and Foreign Service Credits. The student needs only to advise us beforehand and we will supply all the necessary tests and paperwork. We also offer special programs for Flight Attendants, Pilots, Nurses, Doctors, Business groups, and Cultural tours. At the Academia de Español Guatemala we have students of all ages from all parts of the world to provide a truly cultural and educational experience. Our students, no matter their age or nationality, always have a good time.
