La Esquela

Academia Colonial is where we are studying Spanish for the month of June. (Academia Colonial doubles as a Rum Bar & restaurant in the evenings.) We do four hours of one on one tutoring each day from 8 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.

The teachers are wonderful and have a very systematic and effective method of teaching Spanish. They don’t speak much English during the lesson, the explanations are done in Spanish. At first it’s overwhelming but, amazingly, you do catch on by the second or third day. We still feel pretty at a loss for words but certainly know a ton more Spanish than when we started.

I’d also like to mention that this tutoring only costs us $20 per day, for intensive one-on-one training.

I'll bet it's a lot easier to learn by immersing yourself than it is through books or cd's. Not bad for $20!
