 Simon
Bolivar was founded approximately 7 years ago, and today is considered one
of the best schools in South America. Recognized by the Ministry of
Education, Simon Bolivar offers excellent Spanish language programs for
beginner to advanced level Spanish students. Located centrally and in one
of the nicer parts of Quito, students have easy access to hundreds of
bars, restaurants, shops, banks, cybercafes, and transportation.
The school itself is located in a very nice colonial
style building which provides a comfortable setting in which to learn
Spanish. Simon Bolivar provides quality one-to-one immersions programs for
students of any age and level of Spanish proficiency. The classrooms are
clean and quiet, and students typically enjoy the comfortable courtyards
outside as a place to both study and/or meet with each other during coffee
breaks.

Individual Lessons
Classes starts every Monday and you can chose between morning sessions
and afternoon sessions. We offer 4 hours of
instruction per day and the classes are held from 08.30 am. to 12-30 for
the morning session and 1 pm. to 5 pm. for the afternoon session. Based on our broad experience we can almost guarantee that you will
be able to speak quite fluent Spanish after 4-6 weeks of study. |

Activities
We offer a range of different activities. In addition
to the activities mentioned below we sometimes offer cooking lessons,
visits to museums, cultural events, parties, group classes with special
topics, etc.
 Weekend trips: These are some of our most
popular activities. Every weekend we offer trips out of Quito, either one
or two days. We sometimes climb up to 5000 meters (15000 feet), go
mountain biking, fish trout in Andean lakes, visit local "fiestas", go
hiking around lakes or just relax at the beach. Going on our weekend trips
is a great way of getting to know the other students.
Dancing lessons: The dancing lessons are
conducted by Edison. He teaches you how to dance Salsa, Merengue and other
Latin American dances. Students often end up at one of the local
"Salsatecas" to practice more after the classes. The dancing lessons are
free of charge.
