Want to learn or improve your Spanish? Come to South America with GVI and attend a Spanish school that has been teaching Spanish language courses to foreigners for years! Here you will get one-on-one tuition for twenty hours a week, with lessons that are a dynamic mixture of grammar, role-play, conversation and exercises.
Live with a host family in the beautiful colonial city of Arequipa where you will have the chance to practice speaking Spanish with your family and the city's local residents. You can also immerse yourself in the fascinating culture of the city known as 'La Ciudad Blanca' (The White City) due to its many stunning white buildings. Included in the program fee is a day's bike ride around the area of Machu Pichu, passing through many traditional villages.
Living with local families in Arequipa in basic but comfortable. Accommodation gives volunteers an enriched and authentic cultural experience. It also provides you with valuable opportunities to practice your Spanish! You will have your own private room, there is hot water, and three meals a day will be provided with the family. The food is very typical of the area and is varied, including meats, and plenty of vegetables and fruits. Vegetarians are also well catered for. All students live near each other in the same neighborhood, which is a ten minute walk to the Plaza de Armas and five minute walk to the Spanish School.
