What language school directors said about Panama City

Few cities in Latin America can match the diversity of Panama City. The historic colonial architecture contrasts with many modern skyscrapers. With its unique position on world trade routes, this thriving commercial and business city attracts immigrants from all around the world, resulting in a multi-cultural melting pot. This cosmopolitan city has much to offer its visitors in terms of entertainment, both during the day and at night.

The proximity of the accommodation
lack of communication between students and staff of the School and more excursions to practice the language!

Super nice staff and very good teachers
In any case, ask again directly whether the booked course is also offered in this way. Unfortunately, I was packed into an already running class unit. The teachers were very eager to include me well and there were also targeted individual lessons, but nevertheless it was not the perfect condition to learn the language well according to the circumstances.

Information about Panama City

Why Panama City? Panama is a fusion of history and modernity and is by far the most cosmopolitan capital in Central America. It is both a vibrant metropolis and gateway to tropical escapes. Welcoming both east and west, Panama is a hub of trade and immigration. The resulting cultural cocktail mix leads to a refreshing 'anything goes' attitude, more dynamic and fluid than that of its Central and South American neighbours. Casco Viejo, its cobblestoned historic centre is famed for colonial-era landmarks like the neoclassical Palacio Presidencial and bougainvillea-filled plazas lined with cafes and bars.

Q&A - Questions about Spanish courses and schools in Panama City

  • Considering that flexibility is important for you, I would suggest private lessons. You can book private lessons in the morning or in the evening, adapting the schedule to your availability. Because of the personal environment, the teacher can accurately monitor how well the student is mastering the lessons and can adapt the pace and targeting of skills accordingly.
    Ana Carolina Dos Santos, LanguageCourse.Net - Nov 15, 2022

FAQ - Frequently asked questions about Spanish courses in Panama City

  • Yes, of course, we have a school that offers a course of 20 lessons per week, 4 lessons of 50 minutes per day from 9:00 to 13:00, and starts every Monday. If you are an absolute beginner there are fixed starting dates. Let us know the period you are interested in and we will check availability for you.
    Antonio Zoppo, Language Travel Consultant from LanguageCourse.Net - Feb 23, 2023
  • For the division into the language courses, the schools first ensure that the students are at the same level. You can find out what the nationality mix is usually on the school website. However, every student is welcome at the school and it cannot be guaranteed that you will only be in the class with other nationalities. Either way, the teachers will speak the language you want to learn so that you can quickly improve your language skills.
