The teaching method used by the Spanish language school
makes full use of modern didactics and is oriented toward the
"Foreign Language Concept of the Council of Europe",
observing all methods that the Real Academia de la Lengua recommends.
The Spanish language school uses the Direct Method and at school,
like during free time, the spoken language is emphasized from
the first day on.
Please
note that additional info (prices, activities, etc) are found

At all levels, only Spanish

During free time the Spanish
language school promotes integration between students and the
Dominican people, organizing culture activities every night
where a number of Dominican friends are invited.
