This way you will be surrounded by the warmth and joy of a true Latin culture in a culinary celebration of art, history, music, and folklore. It is one of the most delicious and wonderful ways to experience a country in a most delightful way!
The Andean region is a cornucopia of the international pantry and is impressive many times over: tomatoes, corn, potatoes, chocolate, exotic tropical fruits, corn and much more. Conversation and interaction soar around the table for everyone to share and enjoy, and will create fond memories of Andean cuisine. This is a true Spanish immersion!

Everyone working at the school is very friendly, welcoming, and helpful. My teacher was wonderful and I improved my Spanish because of her. I also appreciated that the school organized weekly trips for the students. I didn’t stay with a host family so cannot speak to that. Quito’s school is located in a safe area of the city with many eateries nearby.
Something that I didn’t like, but didn’t color my experience at all, was that class never started on time. I realize that I am carrying my culture’s expectations about time with me, but I still felt that I should have gotten the full 4 hours of class daily.
I liked the intimacy of the classes (we were just 3 students and stayed together as a group for the 3 weeks I attended classes). We spoke exclusively in Spanish, which was a great way to get used to speaking the language. The teachers were wonderful, different in their styles, but very personable. I enjoyed our discussions about culture, politics, science and the environment. There was homework every night - it felt like the right amount to reinforce the day's instruction.
I felt very welcomed by the school as well as the host family. They all had so much patience to help me master the basics of Spanish. I would definitely recommend to book private lessons as well as home stay, it is a great way to learn about the Ecuadorian culture and habits. Loved every minute!
Teachers were excellent, very small classes, 1-to-1 sessions helped me hugely. Loved the fact that Ecuadorian Spanish is slow and clear - and Quito has also been one of my favourite capital cities in Latin America.
Housing is provided in local host families so you experience full immersion in the Spanish language and get to know the Ecuadorian locals, our customs and culture.
You will immediately feel the incredible warm-heartedness of South Americans while practicing the Spanish language in a natural surrounding and everyday situations.
You won’t even notice how quickly you acquire fluency in Spanish. Your host family provides you a warm home away from home and you are certain to make lots of new friends for a lifetime.
At the homestay you have a private bedroom and are provided half board (breakfast and dinner in Ecuador). There are also host families who accommodate couples or families with children.
If you’re the kind of person who likes your independence, then our own student residence directly on the school campus is the perfect type of accommodation for you. You are accommodated in a single or double room and a fully equipped kitchen allows you to prepare your own meals. The communal area with tv, dvd player, books and table games is a great place to socialize and meet other students from all over the world.
Please note that we do not book flights for our students. If you are researching airfare costs, we recommend using Kayak.com, a search engine that lets you compare flight options from your home country to キト based on your budget, schedule and preferences.
