Intercultura Language School offers a series of 18 courses designed by curriculum specialists, using interactive small groups in an environment of total immersion in Latin American culture. Classes are 4 hours per day, Monday to Friday. Our professors are university trained and credentialed to teach Spanish as a second language. We give all teachers further instruction on teaching in the context of total cultural immersion. Academic credit through several accredited US university programs is available (e.g.. Brookhaven, Austin College, and Duke University). In addition, we offer homestays with local families and cultural classes ( dancing, cooking, Jewelry making, yoga, etc.) We offer students a city campus in the colonial town of Heredia and a Beach Campus in a beautiful costal town, Playa Sámara.
