3 of us (mature women) just returned from 2 weeks in Mexico City taking classes @ Lengua y Cultura…read more We have taken courses for some years & have gone to language school in another town in Mexico so knew what we wanted. We interviewed 2 other schools before this one and were on the verge of scrapping the trip when we found L&C. They have a placement test beforehand so you know where you fit. They have an actual building and a staff that has a curriculum. The director answered all of our questions in a timely manner. The other students had more experience talking but we 3 knew the grammar. They did field trips on Fridays (part of the "Cultura") and they had (casual) conversations on Thursday nights (in addition to other activities throughout the week). I would highly recommend this school and give a shout out to instructors Diego & Eric as well as Adrian (registrar).

I am very satisfied with the school in all aspects; location in Condesa, Vanessa who signed me up, Charlie, and my fellow students. I floundered for about a week and a half but then things started to click. I highly recommend after class using Babbel or Duolingo for an hour or two this was the catalyst for me.

I learned of ASLI Spanish Institute when I was a doctoral student at the University of California,…read moreLos Angeles. At the time, I was seeking lessons in Nahuatl as well as Spanish instruction in preparation for fieldwork in Morelos. Paco and Maru arranged for private tutoring in Náhuatl and as well as advanced instruction in Spanish. While I have a unique case, in that I have been engaged in fieldwork while taking classes, I have been deeply impressed by the care that the institute takes to ensure that all visiting students have a cultural immersion in Mexico and in the local history of Morelos, the historic epicenter of the Mexican Revolution. In addition to instruction, students are taken to cultural and historic sites throughout Morelos and Mexico City: teachers have the option to visit local schools in Morelos to learn of the conditions of public and private education in Mexico. The institute boasts a range of high quality teachers with the ability to teach across ages and levels-- instruction that far exceeded my experience of language education in primary school in the U.S. Students are offered the option to stay among local families. From my experience, the majority of students leave with a heightened knowledge of the socio-cultural history in Mexico as well as a working knowledge of Spanish in conversation. This level of care, as well as the cultural experiences that Maru and Paco work to provide, is truly exceptional. I highly recommend the institute for all looking to learn or improve their Spanish, and especially for teachers in the U.S seeking Spanish instruction and intercultural exchange.

Studying Spanish at ASLI has been a wonderful experience. The classes are fun, interesting and…read moreengaging. My communication skills improved from day 1 because the school provided many opportunities during the day for me to use my Spanish. I absolutely loved the campus. The classes were small and personalized to my needs, the grounds are green with colorful flowers and the people were great. The teachers were fun and enthusiastic while the administration was always happy to help and make me feel at home. Great homestay experience. Cuernavaca is a safe and beautiful place to learn the language and experience the culture. All in all just wonderful.
