Are you trying to learn another language but it is really not creating anything but frustration? Why not come to Costa Rica and take advantage of the opportunity of being completely immersed within a Spanish culture? It is a once in a life time experience, that cannot be missed!

Studying another language should not have to be a tedious, daily battle, it should be an exciting challenge! If you book today that Spanish course, then you will be securing the chance of an adventure in a country, notorious for its nature and wildlife !



Choosing your Spanish course and school might seem quite daunting and therefore I would like to suggest checking out CPI (Centro Panamericano de Idiomas) Spanish Immersion School. It is renowned for its excellence in Spanish teaching and it offers variety, especially with regards to where that excellence is taught. There are three beautiful schools and each is set in its own distinct place. What could be better than dividing your time between three places of nothing but pure, paradise?

CPI Heredia is situated in a typical Costa Rican town, named San Joaquin de Flores. It takes approximately a 30 minute ride to reach Costa Rica's capital; San Jose. The lush gardens that surround the school are ideal for relaxing in during your free time and for those who just can't sit still can opt to play ping pong, soccer or even basketball.

CPI 'Monteverde' (Green Mountain) is located between two local villages and two huge cloud forest reserves in an area commonly known as 'Monteverde', hence the name of the school. This magical and mysterious mountain top town is home to a wide array of wildlife; including birds, monkeys, sloths and even pumas (don't be alarmed!) If you are not exhausted from all the walking and Spanish classes then why not work out in the school's mini gym and afterwards take advantage of the hanging hammocks and bubbling jacuzzi. Don't spend too long in the jacuzzi though, as there will be a magnificent sunset view waiting for you!

The third school was founded in the Guanacaste area, which lies on the North West coast of Costa Rica. Just a 5 minute walk away from the school is Flamingo Beach. It is the perfect place to relax and take a swim after your Spanish classes. with its white, sands and clear, blue waters. However, if you are simply too tired and just want to relax at school, then you can always take a dip in the swimming pool. The school also offers a place to play basketball and ping pong.

At ICC you can start your Spanish language course at any time of year and you decide if you want to study for a week, a month or even a whole year. Specialized Spanish programs are offered, catering for all individual needs. The three schools are interconnected so if you want to divide your course between them, then moving is hassle free. All you need to do is sit back, relax and take in the views, one after the next .... after the next. Need I say more?

CPI goes one step further than sorting out your Spanish Program; they can help you find a place to stay. Depending on your needs and wants CPI has both home stay and private apartment options. If you really want to make the most of being in Costa Rica then why not spend your stay with a typical family and be completely immersed? However, if the thought of a private apartment sounds more appealing, then don't hesitate as CPI has its own unique apartments, fully equipped and close by the school.

You are in Costa Rica! When you are not studying then get out there and discover what this mystical country has to offer. There are countless activities and tours to participate in, be it at the beach, the forest or in the jungle!
