Description

Our school in beautiful Trinidad offers not only high-quality Spanish lessons, but also provides an optional cultural programme, consisting of tours and activities. These include rum and tobacco factory visits, beach trips, guided tours, and excursions to nearby towns and cities. This cultural program helps students who are learning Spanish at our schools practise out of class the Spanish language that they learn on their Spanish course, so that they learn as much Spanish as possible in the time available to them. The activities and excursions also ensure that students not only enjoy their time in Cuba and learn to speak the Spanish language, but also come to a deeper understanding of the Cuban people and of the way of life in Cuba.

The Spanish courses are held in teachers' homes or in host families, in 'mini-groups' of a maximum of 3 students, always with a fully qualified native Cuban teacher.

Courses:
- Semi-Intensive Spanish Course (10 lessons/week)
- Standard Spanish Course (20 lessons/week)
- Intensive Spanish Course (25 lessons/week)
- Super-Intensive Spanish Course (30 lessons/week)
- Spanish and Dance (Salsa/Mambo etc.)
- Spanish and Music (guitar/drum/trumpet)

Highlights

Trinidad, on the south coast of Cuba, is a beautifully preserved colonial Spanish town of just 50,000 people. A magnificent sandy beach lies just a short bus ride from the town centre. At night, the atmosphere is wonderful, with live music and Salsa dancing in almost every bar. Some tourism is now starting to reach Trinidad, but it still largely unspoilt. However, being much smaller than Havana and Santiago de Cuba, with fewer students and more difficult to reach, Trinidad is really for students who are a bit more adventurous.
