Very solid education!
December 03, 2025by: Aiden Taylor - United StatesProgram: Spanish Immersion Programs | Learn Spanish in Latin AmericaThe staff and teachers at Maximo are super helpful and skilled! I do think that the program is what you make of it and if you study hard in your free time you will definitely improve. The staff was always very attentive and kind.
So much fun!
November 29, 2025by: Maya Nicholson - United KingdomProgram: Education Internship (K-12)—Costa Rica | Guatemala | PeruI had a great experience during my 6 week internship at a school in Guatemala. Máximo Nivel were very helpful answering all my questions before I arrived and there was constant support during my time away. I learnt so much from my internship and very happy to have improved my spanish with daily classes with the wonderful Margarita! I am so pleased to have met so many lovely people at the school and from my host family.
Private Language Lessons
November 28, 2025by: Stacey Kadrmas - United StatesProgram: Spanish Immersion Programs | Learn Spanish in Latin AmericaMy experience as a student receiving private Spanish lessons at Maximo Nivel was very positive. The instructors were knowledgeable, the material was helpful, the school atmosphere was welcoming and staff were helpful.

I'd previously volunteered in Cambodia teaching English, and I was keen to head somewhere else and help out. I had previously quit university and was tired of working two jobs...so I booked a ticket to South America.

I want to go to graduate school to pursue a PhD in Romance Languages. I have a degree in Spanish, but I knew I wanted to live abroad, immersed in the language and culture, and really perfect my Spanish skills before beginning such a high-caliber program. Having a degree in teaching ESL already, I knew I could get a job teaching English abroad without going through a TEFL/TESOL Certification program, but I wanted to go through an organization so that I would have a support system in my new home and could ease into life abroad with a group of peers who were doing the same type of thing as I was.

I traveled to many places, but as tourist only. I think I was just ready to take my experiences to a new level, really get to know the country as if I lived there. I traveled to India and China in the past, saw all the touristy places but didn't experience as much of their culture as I would like to. Volunteering in Guatemala was exactly what I was looking for: interaction with locals and living just like one of them.
