Our Partner Language School in Costa Rica (Natural Wonders): The Academia Centroamericana de Español
ACCE was personally selected by ECI directors for its professionalism and dedication to quality language instruction. All of ACCE’s instructors are native Spanish speakers who have been carefully selected to teach at ACCE. The methods employed at ACCE are based on a two-fold philosophy: the logical study of the structure of the language and the emphasis on conversation.
Key points about the program:
- Students receive thirty hours of Spanish instruction during the two weeks of classes.
- Classes are held in the afternoons, Monday through Friday, and are divided into three sessions.
- Students are placed at their appropriate level: beginner, intermediate or advanced.
- Because students all learn at different speeds and in different ways, these three macro-levels are each divided into three micro-levels which ensures that every student receives instruction that is catered to his or her ability, capacity & learning style.
