Learn Spanish & live in your private teacher's home around Havana with Home Language International! Home Language International (HLI) is a family-run business offering language courses in more than 20 languages in over 30 countries worldwide, including Spanish lessons at an experienced private teacher's home in Cuba. More than 5,000 students take advantage of our services every year. Ian Josephs, Danielle Josephs, their 5 adult children and an expert team of dedicated staff all put in very long hours for HLI. You stay in an experienced teacher's family home, have one-to-one Spanish lessons and then continue to use the language during the rest of your stay in Havana. Because you are the only student, you are guaranteed individual attention. The lessons are completely designed for you, so the teacher will focus exactly on what you need. Mealtime conversation, television and social contacts are all in Spanish. All of our teachers in Cuba have a university degree (or equivalent) and/or a recognised teaching certificate. All teachers have been visited by one of our local organisers. Their qualifications have been checked and their homes throughly inspected. During your stay in Havana, a local organiser will monitor your progress and make sure your experience is both happy and successful. Home Language International (HLI) is accredited by the Accreditation Body for Language Services (ABLS), Association of Language Travel Organisations (ALTO), and UNOSEL.
Estudio Sampere Havana is situated in a detached building in La Vibora, in South Havana. The school has six classrooms, a small garden, common room, library and video room. It has a friendly atmosphere, and the director and staff are Cubans who make up a professional and committed team. The school offers students invaluable assistance and also works as a "Tourist office" making airline reservations and advising students on the various possibilities for travel in Cuba and the Caribbean. All the teachers have studied at university and are certified in the Estudio Sampere teaching methodology. Apart from classes, teachers also accompany students on excursions and specially programmed activities. Sampere Havana organizes school activities and culture classes on a regular basis. The activities which take place after or before the regular class hours are a great way to learn Spanish and get to know the Havana city and Latin American cultures. It is also a great opportunity to get to know other Sampere students from different countries! Sample Activities: - Outdoors sports at the beach - Visit the Cuban tobacco and rum factories - Music and dance festival - Visits to La Habana museums - Picnic at Las Terrazas Pinar del Rio
Sprachcaffe/Languages PLUS only teaches a language in the country in which it is spoken. That makes the country, city and its people an important part of the learning concept. You will study in a relaxed way, without having to fear making mistakes - in fact it is much like having a discussion in a "caffe linguistico". Hence the name of this organisation, created with the word play of "Sprach" meaning language and communication and "Caffe", the atmosphere we aim to create at all of our schools around the world. The advantage for you: Our courses broaden your horizons by exposing you to students from all over the world. The locations of all schools were selected not only for positive teaching purposes, but also for their attractive surroundings that are ideal for leisure and cultural activities. Therefore, for each language, you can choose between the electrifying atmosphere of large modern cities or the peace and charm of smaller cities and provincial towns.
