A Guide to Learning Spanish in Colombia

Locations

Colombia is famed for turning out stunning beauty queens, but the most beautiful of them all is Colombia itself. Stretching from the Pacific to the Caribbean, divided by the equator, and claiming everything from deserts to tropical grassland, Colombia is unrivalled in diversity. Lap up Caribbean vibes on the sandy beaches of Cartagena one day, drink coffee straight from the verdant plantations of Armenia the next, and get lost in the Amazon the day after that.

When it comes to studying Spanish in Colombia, the perennial favorite is cheerful Cartagena. Wildly colourful and flawlessly beautiful, this town is the embodiment of Colombia’s so-called magical realism. It’s hard not to smile when wandering through the streets, beneath blue skies and balconies dripping bougainvillia. On top of Spanish courses, Cartagena does the finer things in life well; you can lounge on white-sand beaches all day, stroll around the Old Town walls at sunset, and dance until dusk at one of the rooftop bars.

A few hours down the coast sprawls hot, chaotic Barranquilla. Like a troublesome second child, Barranquilla has to fight for attention from visitors, being outdone in the beauty stakes by its lovelier neighbor, which it does by throwing the best party to be had in all of Colombia. When South America’s second largest Carnaval kicks off every year, festive fever takes over and the whole city becomes one giant street party. If you want to learn how to dance as well as speak Spanish, this is the place to be; four days of eager barranquilleros teaching you cumbia, champetta, and vallenato will have you shimmying in the streets with the best of them.

If you can’t handle the heat of the coast, the cool green cradle of the Andes makes concentrating on your Spanish studies a little easier. High-altitude and high-octane, Bogota is a beautiful collision of colonial and cosmopolitan. It is the kind of city that gives up its secrets slowly, so the longer you stay, the deeper you’ll fall under its thrall. Between the cobblestoned La Candelaria district, the gorgeous views from Cerro de Monserrate, and an endless number of world-class restaurants and boutique cafes, you’ll have plenty to keep your feet occupied and your taste for culture satisfied.

Great Experience for Spanish Learning and Community Immersion

Program: Learn Spanish & Live Like a Local in Colombia - Bucaramanga

I had the pleasure of getting 10 hours of Spanish lessons a week from Diego for all the 5 weeks I spent in Bucaramanga with Bucara Voluntours. My starting level was barely A2 (I think): I could understand and speak in very basic conversations in for example ordering in restaurants and tell some facts about myself. Together with doing volunteering with local people and getting Spanish lessons, I can now understand most conversations I encounter while traveling as long as I can hear the speaker well and they don't speak super fast. And also take care of myself in Spanish in most situations. As well as I can imagine learning in only 5 weeks :) Diego had a really fun and flexible approach to teaching. After the first few days, the lessons felt more like practicing a language with friends than having a teacher tell you things. Still, Diego knew well which things to concentrate on and as my skills improved, I feel like he would also start talking faster and using english less and less. Which was very good for learning to understand what I'm told even if I don't get all the words. Muchísimas gracias Bucara Voluntours y Bucara Spanish Academy por las 5 semanas inolvidables

Program: Spanish Immersion Program (SIP)

Words can’t describe how great the experience is. SIP is by far the most fun I’ve had on a weeks holiday where I’m meant to be actively learning something. What Alvaro and the team manage to accomplish, by bringing together a group of strangers and welcoming them as part of their family, gives everybody the confidence they need to break through those barriers of being scared to speak in another language. I feel so grateful to now have spent two weeks in SIP programs and 100% will be coming back for more, I’ve met so many wonderful people and made lifelong friends. The food, the activities, the people, it’s not just an immersion program, it’s so much more than that, it’s a week that makes you forget all the stress in your life and just live to enjoy - the perfect way to experience the Spanish culture.
