Spanish in Cuenca - Ecuador

"Yanapuma began as just another school on my list. I had four weeks in Quito and wanted to get the most value out of my school. After spending an entire day visiting nearly half a dozen Spanish school Yanapuma came out as the clear winner. Competitive cost, student programs and involvement, and versatile teaching efforts  are why I would recommend Yanapuma to anyone. ¡Thanks!" - Ryan (click to read more)

Events for Spanish students at Yanapuma this week . . .

What's happening at the Spanish school and foundation in Quito . . . 13 May - 19 May 2013

Our new Spanish school in Cuenca is now open for business with the first students taking classes there and enjoying the tranquility, history and culture of this refined Andean city.

In Quito, the number of students starting classe is rising steadily after a brief lull in numbers at the end of April.

We continue to have our regular calendar of activities that you can view by clicking on the "Upcoming Events at Yanapuma" on the right above. On Monday we usually don't offer any particular event as students are happy to chill out on Mondays after a busy weekend. But on Tuesday we have a free salsa class for students and we encourage all our Spanish students to have a go. It is surprising how many believe that they have two left feet at the start!

On Wednesday this week we have organized a group trip for our Spanish students to the historic center of Quito in the afternoon with the chance to tour around the President's Palace - Carondelet. On Thursday students of the Spanish school will be able to take a group tour to the "Teleferico" a cable car that rises high above the city of Quito with splendid views of the volcanos that run down the Andes.

Our weekend trip is to Cotopaxi volcano, a popular trip for students of our Spanish school. Arriving at the refuge above the snowline students will get the chance to explore this frozen environment before setting off downhill on bicycles.

You can see more about these regular events by clicking on the "Upcoming Events at Yanapuma" link on the top right hand side of this page. Remember - Yanapuma is one of the professional Spanish schools in Ecuador and we offer the best Spanish courses in Ecuador!
