•After a brief introduction and immersion in the language, classes will begin. The materials we use are exclusive to this Center, and our instructors are trained to properly work with them. If the student so desires, a different instructor may be chosen each week.
In order to make teaching more effective, our method is supplemented by exercises, discussions, games, cultural excursions, videos, and audio, as stated before.
After each lesson, the student completes an oral and written quiz to assure the knowledge acquired. The time set for each lesson, and for each level depends entirely on each Student.
We also provide extra activities to the students, which are organized in a schedule so that all the students are able to enjoy their spare time after every daily lesson.

HELPFUL INFORMATION
You will not need a VISA if you are staying in Ecuador for a period of 90 days. If the student wishes to stay a longer period, it is convenient to obtain a VISA in the country of origin. In this case, we will send an enrollment certification to the student, as a help in obtaining the mentioned document. Upon arrival to the Ecuadorian airport, Immigration authorities will request the students' passport, and stamp it with the number of days that he or she is allowed to stay in the country.
