Den vackra staden Merida ligger i den nordvästra delen av Yucatánhalvön i sydöstra Mexiko. Den grundades år 1542 av Francisco de Montejo och byggdes på Maya-staden T'ho som hade varit ett centrum för Maya-kultur och aktivitet i århundraden. Idag är Merida - även känt som "Vitstad" - en av de mest lugna och säkraste städerna i Mexiko. Vår spanska skola ligger strategiskt beläget nordost om det historiska centrumet i Itzimna, en av Méridas vackraste koloniala stadsdelar. Det är ett lugnt och säkert ställe, nära till centrum och inom gångavstånd från stadens viktigaste vägar (Paseo de Montejo och Circuito Colonias), som inte bara garanterar enkel och snabb tillgång till alla delar av staden, men erbjuder även en stort utbud av fritids-och kommersiella platser, inklusive parker, kaféer, restauranger, affärer och banker. Skolbyggnaden i sig är ett typiskt meridianskt hus som behåller mycket av charm och intimitet avmett familjehem. Våra faciliteter består av 5 ljusa och rymliga inomhusklassrum, alla fullt utrustade och luftkonditionerade, 1 utomhusklass i vår tropiska innergård, en cafeteria med datorhörna, en pool och en terrass där eleverna kan koppla av under pauserna mellan spanska lektioner. Alla våra kurser är utformade för att hjälpa eleverna att förbättra sin spanska med fokusering på färdigheter att läsa, skriva, lyssna och tala. Eftersom vi tror att kommunikation är nyckeln och huvudorsaken till att lära sig språk, koncentrerar sig vår högt erfarna och professionella lärare på praktisk kommunikation med hjälp av innovativa metoder och tekniker samt meningsfulla material relaterade till verkliga situationer. Dessutom ordnar vi regelbundet lärarledda utflykter för att uppmuntra våra elever att tala och förstå spanska i olika miljöer. Boendet är en väsentlig del av studentens vistelse hos oss också. Det kompletterar inte bara elevernas lärande, men påverkar också elevernas förmåga att studera och förbättra spanska språket. Vi vet att våra studenter har olika boendeförmåner och ger därför en rad olika boendealternativ. Med ett stort antal utvalda värdfamiljer, ett flertal lägenheter med självhushåll samt ett bra utbud av hotell, pensionat och vandrarhem, alla inom gångavstånd från våra skolor, erbjuder vi boendealternativ för alla typer av behov.
