English Language Schools in Cartagena

Everyone was extremely friendly at ECOS language school and thus served as an example for Colombia's warm-hearted and welcoming people! Teachers and staff only spoke Spanish with me, which gave me plenty of opportunities to immerse in the language. The teachers rotated teaching different classes, which I liked because they all have different styles and approaches to explaining the grammar, so that it was possible to ask another teacher to explain something again if it wasn't understood fully the first time. The free class material was well-designed and we had many exercises to practice. I also liked the occasional games or videos. All classrooms are clean and comfortably temperatured with AC, though not all have a window. The school offers one dancing class and one cooking class for free every week and both were very entertaining and helped understand Colombian culture. In addition, there were field trips to museums, wild life parks, and the city center. The teacher accompanying these field trips has a vast knowledge of the history and street art of Cartagena! She answered all my questions in great detail and I've learned a lot.
