What a great place to improve my Spanish, meet really nice people, and get oriented in Mexico City…read moreduring my recent short solo trip! The school was kind enough to place me in a well-suited, existing group class for my 4 days in town, with an excellent, encouraging and fun teacher. I also took some private lessons one-on-one, which speeded up my learning process. I am so glad I stopped off here on my way to South America, and will go back again next time I visit Mexico City!

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.

Oh, how I wish I had read these reviews BEFORE signing up for Level 2 Spanish at CEPE-Polanco. The…read moreteacher I had here was AWFUL. You could tell that she did not enjoy teaching and helping students progress...was just collecting a paycheck. Equally bad: They crammed 14 people in our class so there was no time for us to truly practice conversation with the "teacher". SAVE YOUR MONEY: You will get better results from an online class than you ever will from CEPE-Polanco. You're welcome!

The review that I read by Jen K is so misleading that I just felt compelled to write a review :) I…read moream sure it's a genuine review, But I think this was a bad experience because of one bad teacher. I came to Mexico to learn Spanish. While I was in the US, I researched schools in Mexico city and I found that private schools were heavily advertised. I came here and visited two of them. Frida Language school and International House. Both seemed good but were expensive. Frida was $ 180 a week (approx) and International House was $ 220 a week (approx). International House seemed more professional. But the issue with these schools was that they had 4 hours of classes a day, which for me seemed like a lot. And like I mentioned before $ 220 is a lot for a week, considering that it would take anyone 6 months to learn a new language. CEPE Polonco is amazing. They have different intensity levels, so you can choose to take classes twice a week, 3 time or 4 times. I've taken the 3 times a week for 2.5 hours per class to a total of 7.5 hours a week. That gives me enough time to memorize stuff and think about what was taught. The course is divided into Basico 1,2,3,4. I am in Basico 1 and it will run for 10 weeks totaling 75 hours of classroom time. The cost is Approx $ 360 for Bascio 1. The teacher is amazing and the course curriculum is fantastic. We have escucha (listening), Games to make memorizing stuff easier, there are constant revisions of what was taught and overall it's a fun class. The best part is that we are being taught Spanish in Spanish...with minimal use of English. I found this odd at first, but Now that I've gone through the system, I appreciate it a lot more. I highly recommend this to everyone.
