Spanish For Independent Student
| 
| 
The Kukulcan Educational Community happily welcomes independent students who want to come to Mexico to learn Spanish. Whether you’re a beginner or an advanced student, we offer a range of Spanish language classes that will help you acquire the level of conversational proficiency you desire.
You can choose to study in a group with other students at your level and follow our normal class schedule, or you can choose semi-private or private classes that can be molded to fit your needs. Classes begin every Monday, and are available year round. You can sign up for the number of weeks you want, and the number of hours you want per week.
Typical weekly schedule (30 contact hours)
| TIME | MONDAY - FRIDAY |
| 9:00 – 11:40 |
Grammar divided into three blocks, with 5 minute breaks between classes. |
| 11:55-1:40 |
Conversation divided into two blocks with 5 minute breaks between classes • Vocabulary development; oral practice • Culture-based readings, discussion, debate, short oral presentations, interactive communication-based activities, role play |
| 1:45 - 2:35 |
Hands-on culture classes and workshops (traditional Mexican cooking, music and dance, arts and crafts, film appreciation, etc.) plus Friday excursions to places of interest in and around Cuernavaca |
Remember: we can custom design a program for you if you want less than 30 hours or more than 30 hours of instruction per week. For students with special needs or interests, we can modify the grammar, conversation and culture classes to meet your needs.
The online placement exam will help us determine the right level of classes for you to take. Because we value the immersion experience of language learning in a cultural context, we encourage you to consider a homestay with a Mexican family. However, if you prefer an apartment or hotel arrangement, we can help you choose accommodations. Our friendly staff and faculty will make you feel at home.
Through our enlaces amistosos program, you can get together with native speakers outside of class for informal conversation practice. You’ll also have a chance to interact with other students at the school and become integrated into group activities, excursions, culture classes, and tours.
Kukulcan also offers volunteer opportunities for students who want to combine language learning with community outreach work.
Whether you need Spanish for college credit, work-related purposes, or for your own personal enrichment, we work with you to create the program you want.
