Learn Spanish at LSI partner school in San José / Coronado
Coronado is a delightful leafy suburb located 10km from the vibrant capital San Jose, on the edge of a National Park. It offers the visitor who wants to learn Spanish in Costa Rica the best of both worlds – spectacular countryside, and easy access to the bustle of the city.
Our LSI partner school Academia Tica is one of the longest established language schools in Costa Rica. The school is idyllically located on a former farm, now a huge tropical garden, in an area surrounded by green pastures and dairy farms. A bus stop right by the school means that it’s easily accessible, though – and we also have bicycles to hire free of charge to help you get around while you study Spanish. Student facilities include a reference library, internet access and a cafeteria. Whether you choose the DELE Spanish exam course or one of our more general Spanish programmes, you will experience the best that Costa Rica has to offer.
