The School
Our partner school in Oaxaca is located in the city center, just 2 blocks from the beautiful 16th century Santo Domingo Convent and 4 blocks from the city's Zócalo - Mexican name for a Main Square. This privileged setting means that you'll find a plethora of internet cafes, restaurants, museums and art galleries in the vicinity. The building is an old colonial home with thick walls that keep classrooms cool and with a large central patio that is perfect for socializing with international friends over a drink or snack.
Timetable
The group classes, with a maximum of 5 students per group, are held from 9:00am to 2:00pm (until 12:00pm for the Intensive course) and are composed of 3 lessons of conversational grammar and 2 lessons of practical conversation and/or lectures if you opt for the Super intensive course (which goes on from 12:20pm to 2:00pm without breaks). The One to One lessons are offered in the afternoons from 2:30pm to 5:30pm with a 20 minute break.
A movie is shown each week during one of the conversation classes. During the conversation hours, lectures are given in Mexican history, Zapotecan culture, national holidays, etc

Our Opinion
The city of Oaxaca, located in the central valley of the state, is surrounded by the states of Puebla, Veracruz and Chiapas and the Pacific Ocean to the southwest. With its ethnic, cultural and historic richness, Oaxaca is an ideal place to experience the beauty of Mexico and its people.
