Spanish School Educación para Todos - Spanish language school in Quetzaltenango, Guatemala |
1 - Language School Overview :
“Our program provides the most effective learning experience by immersing the student in the language and culture of Guatemala. This is achieved through an intensive one-on-one study program, living with a Guatemalan family, the opportunity to volunteer in local organizations, and weekly organized cultural, social and political events. You can study in a classroom or on our terrace where you will enjoy one of the best views in Xela.”
2 - Location :
There is no lack of places to study throughout Guatemala. However, Quetzaltenango has its own style and pace that sets it apart from other areas.
Quetzaltenango is situated in the highlands at an altitude of 7,800 feet. It was built on the site of the ancient Quiché Mayan capital of Xelaju. For this reason most people refer to this area as simply Xela. Today Xela is a city proud of its cultural heritages. Many of Guatemala's best writers, musicians and scholars have lived here and call this home. It is also home to the University of San Carlos, the national autonomous university. Xela is home to many indigenous people who can be seen throughout the streets in their brightly colored clothing. Due to the number of Spanish schools found here, you will find coffee shops with good coffee and desserts, internet cafes, gringo bars, laundry mats and restaurants. However, Xela has kept the tourist market out and is just a calm and laid-back place to learn Spanish and enjoy the culture of Guatemala.
