  • Yvon Vanasse Retired Accountant Quebec, Canada.

    In a nutshell, the program was everything the brochure and internet said it would be. It is well organized and well managed. If you are serious about learning Spanish, it is definitely the place to go... a good investment, without any doubt!

  • Tracy Carpenter Life Coach Bellingham, WA, USA

    I am grateful that you have put so much attention in the details. Everything was taken care of. I completely trust the administration and would return myself. I recommend the Institute to anyone that is serious about learning.

  • K. Scott Wood Retired University Professor Glen Margaret, NS, Canada

    My teacher provided a truly excellent class and displayed both great knowledge and excellent and innovative teaching methods.

  • Amberle Byrne Administrator County Clare, Ireland

    This program is excellent for persons who are serious about learning Spanish. I love that I can speak and understand Spanish now.

  • Dean Basse Teacher San Diego, CA, USA

    I believe the goal of speaking Spanish fluently is being achieved through the Institute. Partly because of grammar training, but mostly through the conversation class in which I can apply what is learned in class and be encouraged and corrected by the conversation instructors.

  • Rod Gordon Retired Sooke, BC, Canada

    One of the best Spanish teachers so far. One of the things I liked the most were the "conversation" classes outside of the classroom.

  • Roger Bau Accountant Queretaro, Mexico

    The program fit in well with my schedule. My professor was attentive, responded well to my questions and other expressed needs.

  • Elena P. Weyermann Designer Viersen, Germany

    Intensive, interesting and sometimes a challenge to have more words to learn in the evening. A good possibility to train your adaptability.

  • Adrian Michalik Student Krakov, Polonia

    I gained confidence in speaking, after two months I am able to communicate in Spanish.

  • Sarah Reynolds Student Sydney, Australia

    I came to the program speaking zero Spanish. Four weeks later, I can have conversations with taxi drivers (who speak almost as fast as they drive) and anyone I meet in the street. I was watching a telenovela the other night and I could understand the storyline. This Institute is fantastic and I couldn't rate it more highly.

  • Rich Abel Retired Wilmington, DE, USA

    This was my third time at the Institute and the quality of the program has been consistently outstanding. I had a great improvement in grammar, listening and conversation.

  • Brian Gillespie Business Consultant Vancouver, BC, Canada

    After one month in Mexico, I feel like I have a better grasp on Spanish itself and a deeper understanding of Mexico.

  • Peter Nasse Computer Programmer Melbourne, Australia

    This course transformed my Spanish to a new level… Thank you very much all the staff for making it a very productive two weeks.

  • Brianna Nadin Student Smokey Lake, AB, Canada

    The duration of my classes was short, 2 weeks, but the tutor really impressed me. I had a great teacher and amazing person, really intelligent and always willing to give more.

  • Greta Wilhems Student Wedemark, Germany

    In my first 4 weeks of the program I learned to speak Spanish to be able to communicate with my host family. When I came here I couldn't speak any Spanish. The atmosphere in my class was wonderful and in the afternoons I learned a lot about Mexico.

  • Allen Dooley Professor Los Angeles, CA, USA

    I thought the program would be good, but it really exceeded my expectations. I'd highly recommend the Spanish Institute to anyone. I really improved my Spanish.

    This has been a challenging 2 weeks, so much to learn. The instruction has been excellent and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the SIP. All is top quality.

  • Alicia Eykyn Retired Llangados Carmarthenshire, Wales

    I loved the whole atmosphere and feel more confident to speak, although the time was too short for a huge improvement in my case. I would love to try again for longer.

  • Dr. Karen Stevenson Senior Lecturer Lancaster, United Kingdom

    Despite the books that suggest you can "learn Spanish in 7 days", language learning is a gradual process. However, the focus on conversing and the excellent support provided by the school has meant that I genuinely feel more confident speaking the language in 2 weeks.

  • Krystallia Sakellarion Museum Professional Göteborg, Sweden

    I only attended the morning classes which have been extremely good. My teacher has been very good at dividing the classes in reading, conversation, topics related to Mexico, and life in general. I really enjoyed it as well as I learned a lot.

  • Astrid Van Sprunsen Product Manager Amsterdam, The Netherlands

    Very personal. It was great that we could have 5 days of class and also practice in the weekends. I learned a lot. Now I just have to practice.

  • Jerry Kammer Journalist Rockville, MD, USA

    When I registered, I was not sure what to expect. But I am more than satisfied. I found the instruction to be just what I needed, My teacher was highly competent.

  • Kirsti Katajamari Retired Brisbane, Australia

    I was very impressed by the program, it was very well structured. Everything was well organized and I will only have good memories of the program. My host family was fantastic.

    It's a very strong program with a nice mix of language, culture and people experience. "Hands-on", personal content with the staff makes it even better.

  • Keith Larson Attorney Houston, TX, USA

    The idea of living in Mexico for four weeks was a little intimidating before I arrived. The structure of the Institute made everything a breeze. I concentrated on Spanish and learned a ton. I know I am not a fast learner of languages, and now I can easily communicate in Spanish.

  • Kay Lewis Diving Instructor London, England

    I have had a wonderful experience with the Institute. The instructors are very friendly and helpful. The course and excursions extremely well organized. I would definitely recommend SIP in the future.

    I like the teachers and the staff. The meal on the last evening is a very good idea. I have seen much of Cholula and the excursions were very interesting. Thank you!

  • Kristen Perrott College Instructor Brandon, MB, Canada

    As a language instructor and language teacher I was trilled to have the opportunity to be on the other side of the classroom... I will be a better teacher because of this experience and I am truly thankful for that. I really respect this institution and congratulate the director and his staff for delivering a well balanced and extremely well organized program.

  • Paul Pattee Retired Mazatlan, Mexico

    It's a great program, very professional and serious about teaching Spanish. My experience was excellent.

    The program will benefit me personally and professionally. Everyone at the Institute was helpful and professional. The format and instruction are excellent. I gained a lot of confidence in speaking Spanish.

  • James Roy Public Servant Ottawa, ON, Canada

    Honestly, when I was searching schools I was not interested in Mexico. I didn't realize how beautiful, peaceful, friendly and cultural Puebla was until I came here. I'm glad I have chosen Puebla.

  • Berri Shelley Public Servant Sydney, Australia

    I really liked the full immersion of the program (classes - conversation - host family). I had a wonderful experience. The program was well-balanced and very helpful.

    I had a lot of fun. Met some really interesting people of different nationalities. Learned not only a great deal of Spanish in one month, but a lot about Mexico, the people and the way of life.

    This has been an excellent once-in-a lifetime (though I hope to return) experience for me. I know I will be able to communicate effectively in Spanish at work.
