Spanish Language School

Learn a new language and immerse yourself in culture and community

The Spanish School at entreamigos is open from October through May with classes for all skills and abilities.

The objective of the Spanish School is not only to teach standard language skills but to offer students the opportunity to immerse themselves in the community and culture.  Students can choose to expand their skills and their studies by practicing to speak spanish with children in the afternoon programs or alongside adults in one of the galleries or workshops.

The Spanish Language School organizes cultural exchanges and offers educational opportunities, like cooking, dance, art and other classes. You do not have to be a Spanish Language student to participate in these classes. Please see our calendar for current activities.

The following are six week sequential programs. Classes are held 2 days a week with a total of 20 hours of instruction at each level. All materials are included in the class fee. To sign up or if you have any questions, please email spanish@entreamigos.org.mx
