EPA! ESPAÑOL EN PANAMA
One-on-one Spanish teaching is an exceptionally effective approach to instruction and most students, educators, and parents would agree that the ideal academic environment consists of one-on-one teaching, customized to the needs of the student. This type of individual attention allows for a high level of quality interaction between the teacher and the student.
The student benefits immensely from the personal attention inherent in a one-on-one teaching ratio. Because of the intimate environment, the teacher can accurately monitor how well the student is mastering the lessons, and can adapt the pace and targeting of skills accordingly.
If you would like to have one-to-one lessons we can offer different options customized to your needs. Firstly, we analyze your individual goals and then create a personalized program adapted to you with regard to content, timetable and additional activities.
And if you are traveling, taking a Spanish course at the beginning of your trip will make a difference. You can take from 1 day of one to one classes (you choose the number of hours per day).
You can also request information on non-specific language content, such as literature, business or any other subject, and you decide how many lessons per week you would like.
Conditions:
- Classes must be at least 2 times a week and a minimum of 1.5 hours per day-.
- If you need to cancel or reschedule your class please let us know by writing to make the change. If you do not inform of cancellation or rescheduling before that time it will be a penalty of 1-hour class.

I really liked the class with some exceptions:
1. Parking there is expensive. I live in Panama so the classes are not within walking distance from my home. At the end, I chose to ride Uber to class and ride the bus from class.
2. I didn't have a sense of what the class objective was when the class started. For example, by the end of the class, how could I have gauged whether I learned what I was supposed to? This was particularly important to me since my class was four days instead of the usual 5 days. It also made me question whether our teacher had enough time to help us reach the objective.
The course materials are professional and they allow me to continue my studies until the next class that I enroll in. Sandra is a great teacher and it was her who made the learning environment relaxed!
Please start the classes with an objective and let students know how you plan to cover a 1-week class in four days. Because this class was shortened, it's hard for me to recommend it to anyone else. It's not representative of the other classes.
Thank you.
The school was good. I really liked my teacher Carol. She was always well prepared and in a really good mood. Once a week you could do an activity with the school. That was nice. I would have liked to do more activities. But Lia was very helpful organizing trips and tours.
I liked my housing. I lived with a really nice couple.
So over all I really liked my two weeks in Panama City.
The school was good. The professors were focused on helping me achieve my goal. They were all very professional. The activities coordinated by the school were good/ interesting. My home stay experience was great- I recommend it to anyone attending a language school.
One improvement would be a requirement for a placement test before beginning classes.
Homestays are carefully selected and offer students the opportunity to learn more about the local culture in a comfortable setting while studying Spanish in Panama City. These homes are often between 3 - 10 minutes away from the school by public transport. Families usually offer affordable meal plans that allow you to sample the local cuisine. If you have special requests or diet restrictions (because of religion or health reasons), please let us know in advance.
