Lehrerinnen waren zum Teil nicht sehr motiviert... Vielen hatten keine Englischlenntinisse, was den Unterricht positiv beeinflusste und wirklich nur spanisch gesprochen wurde. Ausflugsangebote waren vorhanden, jedoch immer überteuert...dann macht man es lieber auf eigene faust und kommt billiger.

Testimonials

Michaela Mühlbauer
Habla Ya, Bocas del Toro

I don’t think my linguistic stay in Santo Domingo de Heredia and Bocas del Toro could have been any better. At the beginning, it was a bit chaotic because I could not speak Spanish very well. But the people were all very open and helpful and I quickly felt at ease. At both schools, Academia Columbus in Santo Domingo and Habla Ya at Bocas del Toro, I had excellent experiences. The teaching as well as the kindness and the openness of the teachers and the students are to be recommended. I particularly enjoyed the excursions to the beaches and to the national parks that we organized ourselves.

This Caribbean paradise is the place to stay for unspoiled nature and deep seas with a colourful abundance of sea life. Every weekday there is an activity or trip for international students. Enjoy Panamanian dinners, movie nights, salsa lessons, conversation classes, yoga classes and so much more! Many people come here to surf, as this beautiful area is renowned for its superb swells, which lends the town a relaxed, surfer vibe. The school also gives daily nature tours either before or after lessons: hiking, trekking, zip-lining in the rainforest and diving are just a few examples. Why not explore the town at your own pace by bike (day hire)? The local culture and traditions come to life on themed trips and visits to indigenous villages.
