MAXIMO NIVEL

I am doing an 8-week medical internship in Cusco, Peru with Maximo Nivel. I have had an amazing time so far. My host family and accommodations have been incredible! When I was sick, my host mom even made me some chicken soup and helped me see a doctor. I have learned so much at my placement in a local hospital. The staff and nurses have been extremely welcoming, and I have had the opportunity to assist in intensive medical procedures. This experience has definitely helped prepare me to begin medical school, and serve Spanish patients at home. Overall, I have felt very supported by this program and the staff, and would definitely recommend it if you are looking for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

After completing several classes of Spanish throughout college, I am very much inspired to teach English to others the same way my Spanish professor had to me. I will never forget how happy and excited she was to cram Spanish in our brains everyday. She made learning a new language so fun and easy. When it comes to my experience training with MAximo Nivel, I believe this has got to be one of the best places to begin or continue a teaching career in all of Latin America. The team here in Maximo are all on the same wave length of people who enjoy the connection and share the same values of teaching. Furthermore, the organization´s layout for teaching classes, what they recommend their teachers to do and what their goal criteria is attuned towards maximum freedom for teachers to use their creativity and custom interaction, and they employ all the students in every level of class to practice the language as much as they can on their own even within the class. By far I would recommend anyone to work here, as I believe it is an incredibly unique and positive company in itself along with the people, students and teachers.

Tania is so expressive which helps especially in the beginning of learning. I love her organization, style and flexibility to change to a game if my brain was overloaded. She was very encouraging that I could speak Spanish. She was amazing at incorporating current events so I was learning how to talk about every day things.
