Language Courses
Many people overlook Venezuela as
an excellent location to study Spanish,
often choosing more expensive language schools in Peru, Chile and Bolivia..

 Language courses take place in Mérida, a beautiful university town high in the Andes which has arguably the most accessible nightlife in Venezuela and is a great place to meet young Venezuelans.

We can arrange home stays with well
chosen local families or recommend
inexpensive student accommodation
