Description des cours

Just like the Standard Spanish course, our Intensive Spanish course is based on the internationally recognized CEFR framework for learning, teaching and assessment which is also the basis of DELE-Diplomas (Spanish as a Second Language). The levels are Basic User (A1, A2), Independent User (B1, B2) and Proficient User (C1, C2). The difference between the Intensive and Standard Spanish course is that you will advance more quickly since you will spend more hours per day studying and practicing Spanish.
6 levels: A1 (2 wks), A2 (2 wks), B1 (4 wks), B2 (4 wks), C1 (6 wks), C2 (6 wks)
Materials included: Workbook.
Others included: Introduction folder with Tourist information including area map & info about the course (levels, objectives, contents and evaluations) /placement test / coffee & tea during breaks / introduction talk on Sunday / Friday’s happy hour / certificate upon completion.

"The one-on-one time with the instructor was amazing and the location was really beautiful"

Ashley Weber, etudiant de Etats-Unis

I was really glad I ended up staying in the hotel in Turrialba instead of the hostel because I experienced the city much more and had to learn the bus routes, cash system and so forth. I wish they made OBVIOUSLY available the other Spanish language books that students can study when they are not in class. The teacher was really, really good at figuring out what I needed to work on and how to achieve it.

Hi,

Thank you so much for taking the time to send us your feedback. Really appreciate it!
You know where to find us for any future plans.
Pura Vida!

"I had a good experience."

Tasmin Neumann, etudiant de Costa Rica

I had a really good experience with Spanish by the river. In my class we were just two students and one teacher and that was absolutely perfect. We shared the same level and developed quickly Spanish. Our teacher would teach us what we want to learn and would make suggestions. I really appreciated that she was local and could tell us more about the area and traditions of Turrialba. In the afternoon we had time to discover the area and talk about it in the next class. The teacher and the location was perfect. My only complain is that it took a full week until we received the second exercise book. That was too long.
In total I am happy and fulfilled with my experience. I learned what I was looking for and would recommend this course.

Our homestay in Turrialba, Costa Rica gives you the opportunity to live with a host family. Living with a local family is a unique experience that will provide you with the opportunity to not only learn the language but also explore the culture. Our host families have been carefully selected. The rooms are private and have shared bathrooms. Home stays may include breakfast, lunch and/or dinner and laundry. Food is typical Costa Rican, nevertheless most families can adapt a little upon request (e.g. considering people’s diets).
