Language Programs in Cusco, Peru

The home stay was great, felt very welcome always and the food was great. My lessons were well organised and the teachers were always passionate in helping me improve, and felt like I improved a lot in only 3 weeks. Great experience overall, and i would recommend to anyone that wants to learn a new language.

During my stay here, the teachers and organization were exceptionally professional and constantly checked in on me to ensure everything was up to standard. The curriculum was professionally curated, and as a student I was allowed to ask to hone in on certain aspects if I had any confusion. If youre considering studying here, I would recommend taking private classes, as it ensures progression will match your own pace. Overall, 5 stars across the board :)

I had such a great time in Antigua. My host family was amazing. They were so kind and all the food was so good. My teachers were excellent as well. I learned so much and they were so kind. The travel Guiness program was great too. I had so much fun traveling to Lake Aticlan and going to the beach.

My Spanish teachers at Maximo were very knowledgable about the Spanish language and consistently provided me with feedback and explanations that helped me improve my Spanish very quickly! My classes had a good balance of authentic conversation and grammar, and it was clear that my teachers had put a lot of thought into the sequence and pacing of the lessons.

I've been learning a lot about the Guatemalan culture while volunteering in a local school and wandering on the streets of Antigua. I've learnt Spanish very quickly thanks to my fantastic teacher Francisco who is a marvellous language teacher.

I really enjoyed my time here; Maximo offers everything you need and more – the pool in particular was brilliant, and you could always get free water. The host family were very friendly and the food was delicious and varied. It didn’t have air conditioning, but that wasn’t a problem. My teacher was brilliant; I learnt a great deal in two weeks through lots of conversation. Also the staff is very helful with everything. I really loved it here:))

I learned so much in this program and had the best teachers. Odilia and Aracely were so attentive and knowledgeable. Admin was so great too! Antigua is a beautiful and fun city with so much to do. Thank you for everything.

In my case, Maximo Nivel is most ideal for those looking to improve their Spanish through an all encompassing immersion. I would suggest taking advantage of the free salsa and cooking classes, along with the tandem conversation opportunities.

Great instruction and they were very helpful for activities outside of the classroom as well. We can’t wait to come back. They were so helpful. We did many tours, the zip line the night jungle hike, which was excellent as as well as visiting the national Park Manuel Antonio.

I came to Peru 2 months ago for trekking but i felt like i could not get a complete experience without learning spanish. I came back to cusco and sighned up to Maximo Nivel. the apliccation was very easy and the costumer help was very eficiente as well [i sighned up and started the next day]. i loved the teacher and the fact that we study grammer but practice speaking too with the group. the only thing that i think you should consider is that in my claas, i had students that took spanish allready in an other MAXIMO NIVEL school and were very advanced [finished the book already], that made me question multiple times if i am placed at the right level. other than that, the explications of the teacher were clear and i felt like i understoud the homeworks after class. overall, had an amazing experience and i will continue studying spanish in my country!.

I really liked the language classes with Maximo Nivel!! The teachers were really professional and capable, but also fun and teach you in a fun way. The loction of the school is in the middle of the center of the city which also is really nice. They organise (free) activities so you can easily meet new people. I would for sure recommend this school!

The class of Spanish with Francis were perfect. I learnt quick, participate a lot and our teacher Francis was perfect. My classmate and me were similar level. Francis took the time to talk, answer explain any question we had

This experience felt like a productive use of my time. I took 2 hour classes for a month. My teacher Alma was amazing and my Spanish improved tremendously. It was such a good school I’m thinking about extending my stay.

Really enjoyed the program at Maximo Nivel. I took Spanish lessons for two weeks, which was a great way to improve - especially conversation and comprehension. The teachers were professional, patient and helpful and it was always fun to attend classes and Ive learned a lot during those two weeks. The extracurricular activities like cooking classes and salsa lessons were also nice. Would definitely recommend to take Spanish at Maximo Nivel.

Teacher and host family were awesome! I have learned a lot und enjoyed the time in class. Whenever i had questions everyone was super helpful and friendly. i also liked the activity program that were offered. Had great fun!

I had a wonderful experience with my private teacher who tailored the lesson to my favour and my level. The service was extraordinary (from e-mail communication to check out). It was nice that all activities were included and teachers were flexible. Would come back !!!

The people at Maximo Nivel definitely make the experience worth it. From arrival to departure they make sure that you are taken care of every step of the way! Quepos is the perfect place to immerse yourself in the Costa Rican culture. There are beaches, jungles, restaurants, and shops all in proximity to one another. You will never run out of things to do!

Quepos is such a beautiful town to get to know- easy to navigate while containing many things to do. The staff at Maximo in Manuel Antonio are incredibly friendly and the beach and wildlife are gorgeous. The teachers are patient and wildly interesting to converse with.

Can´t recommend Maximo Nivel enough. Great language school that goes out of their way to make sure, students have what they need. Teachers do an excellent job and the student to teacher ratio is great as well. Thanks and hope to to see you again.

Over the course of my 2 weeks Spanish immersion program I progressed from being a beginner to being able to have conversations with lots of locals around Maximo Nivel. My teachers were amazing and I have to thank especially Pamela who used what we learnt constantly in conversations about home life and other things which massively boosted my confidence in Spanish as well as quickly expanding my vocabulary.
