EXPERIENCIA, Intensive Spanish Language Immersion School
Since 1977, Specialized Spanish courses
in the context of Mexican and Latin culture


Our Spanish immersion programs have classes and courses which focus on a base of structured study and learning integrated with experience in various settings where the natural use of conversational Spanish is required. This is not typical classroom learning. Our classrooms are set in a beautiful tropical garden setting with an international multicultural student base. We offer small group, private instruction or a blend of both. The context of all of our programs are set in the context of Mexican and Latin culture. Students learn concepts of cultural competency so that the language brings cultural competence to the work settings that you use your Spanish in. Spanish without the emphasis on culture and concepts of cultural competence can lead to errors in usage and cultural misunderstandings.
