Cusco means “navel of the world” in Quechuan, the language of the native people of the Andes. Learn Spanish in Cusco and take this great opportunity to explore the remains of one of the most significant pre-Columbian indigenous settlements. Cusco maintains the magic and mystery breathed in times of the Inca Empire. Discover its wonderful colonial-style constructions, framed among imposing mountains covered with lush vegetation. Cusco is the gateway to one of the most tourist places in the world, the Machu Picchu, a mountain in the Sacred Urubamba Valley that harbors the ruins of an ancient Inca sanctuary. Cusco is a destination that has everything you need to spend a different vacation and enjoy a comprehensive immersion in the language and culture of Latin America.
Our partner Spanish school in Cusco, Peru, enjoys e central location close to the historic Plaza de Armas, the city's nerve center. We are in a 4-story with 20 fully equipped classrooms; a nice common area, perfect for sharing experiences and practicing Spanish; a nice cafateria; and a great and sunny patio. In addition, both the residential and academic areas are in the same building, so you will not need to get around to attend your Spanish classes. You won't need to do so either to explore all this wonderful place has to offer: restaurants to taste the delicious Peruvian food, trendy pubs and coffee shops, as well as a great variety of museums, charming colonial-style churches and shops to buy local crafts and products.
Our Spanish courses in Cusco have been designed through a great combination of classes and activities. Hence, our students enjoy a personalized and dynamic learning experience. If you want to attend Spanish classes, but also to enjoy some free time to explore the surroundings and the local culture, we recommend you choose our Intensive Course, with 20 hours of class per week. But if you are looking to invest more time in classroom learning, your program is the Super Intensive one, with 30 hours per week. In any case, you can always add private classes to reinforce those contents that are more difficult for you to understand. Or do a volunteer program, you will leave a small part of you in Cusco forever!
Cusco is, without any doubt, a great meeting point for tourists from all over the world. Its diverse and multicultural environment forms the perfect setting to enjoy an integral immersion in Spanish-speaking culture. Spanish can be learned anywhere, but if you do so in the country in which it is spoken, you’ll learn to behave and communicate like a true local.
For this reason, we have a wide variety of activities, workshops, sports and excursions for you to get involved in local life after your Spanish classes in Cusco. Discover the lost city of Machu Picchu with us, or visit the Sacred Valley and the archaeological ruins of Ollantaytambo...
