Hi Josh,
I want to let you know about a great new school that recently started up in Catarina. It is called Spanish School Catarina (
http://spanishschoolcatarina.com/) and is run by two very experienced Nicaraguan spanish teachers. They got tired of being exploited at other schools and decided to start their own school. I have been to two spanish schools in Guatemala, one in Mexico, and one in Nicaragua. The teachers at Spanish School Catarina are without a doubt the best I have ever had, and are humble, friendly, and all around amazing people. The prices are great, they offer an above average variety of activities, and are truly committed to ensuring every student has a great experience. I could go on for hours about how great I think the school is, but I think you get the point!
The price for their standard program, including 20 hours/week of one-on-on instruction, living with a host family, four activities, a welcome package and learnging materials, is $200/week. Their contact information is
spanishschoolcatarina@gmail.com and tel.8876-4316. It would be wonderful if you could include some references to this school in your books and articles.
Thanks,
Nancy
