INTENSIVE SPANISH PROGRAMS
We recommend 20 hours per week (4 hours per day) to learn Spanish, but we can customize a course that suits you from 1 to 7 hours a day. Whatever you choose, you can be confident that Amauta will provide you with the best teachers and all the study material to improve your Spanish.
ONE-ON-ONE
Our flexible schedule classes are part classroom and part lifestyle Spanish, where we take to the streets. We recommend one or two extra hours of One-On-One instruction per day for students seeking a more intensive Spanish course.
- 4 hours per day | 20 hours per week – $200 per week
GROUP
After an initial assessment, students will be placed in one of six levels of Spanish. Classes begin on Mondays, and you will be placed in the appropriate group based on your level of Spanish. There is no registration fee to book classes. With your confirmation, we will provide instructions on when and how to complete the level placement assessment. Group class is from 3 to 6 per classroom. Note: If the group’s minimum number of students per class is not reached, you will receive 16 hours of private, one-on-one lessons at no additional cost.
- 4 hours per day | 20 hours per week – $140 per week
SPECIALIZED SPANISH
ACADEMIC PROGRAMS
The number of students in each group depends on their level of proficiency. Each student will be given a placement evaluation on the first day to determine their language ability. If the college requires a minimum proficiency of one to two years of Spanish, students will be divided into Intermediate, Upper-intermediate and Advanced groups. If no prior Spanish is required before coming to Ecuador, we will include a beginner-level class for new students to the language. Two academic courses may be included: Anthropology, History, or Ecology. These courses are taught in English.
