Group 4 Language Course Starting Dates

Beginner groups start their language course on the first Monday of each month. Students who know some Spanish can start on almost any Monday

Beginner groups start on the first Monday of every month throughout the year, except when that Monday is a public holiday. Students who already know some Spanish may start our Group 4 course on any Monday throughout the year depending on group availability for their level. During the high season we do have beginner groups that start on other dates. The following starting dates are for students who do not know any Spanish.

    Group 4 PLUS Language Course: a more intense option

    A few private lessons are the perfect complement for our Group 4 course if you want to get the most out of your Spanish course

    For those seeking a more intensive course, the Group 4 PLUS adds 1 or 2 hours of private lessons in the afternoon between 1:15 p.m. and and 3:15 p.m. or between 3:30 p.m. and 5:30 p.m. In these extra hours you will be able to focus on whatever you want to. For example you can work on your conversational skills or on certain grammar topics, take your time to prepare for the DELE exam, study Medical Spanish, work on a certain area that is more difficult for you, talk about Latin culture, etc.

    Group 4 PLUS 1 adds 1 additional hour of private lessons in the afternoon and Group 4 PLUS 2 adds 2 additional hours of private lessons in the afternoon. Private lessons are 1 on 1, just the teacher and one student. Our groups have a maximum of 4 students per class. If for any reason you would like to limit your class size to 2 or 3 students (couples or friends), check out our Mini Group course option.

    Panamanian Public Holidays

    When a national holiday lands on Monday our Group 4 course starts on Tuesday or on the next Monday if there are several holidays on that week.

    Classes will be programmed to start on Tuesdays for those weeks that begin with a Monday holiday. Beginner groups always start on the 1st Monday of each month and groups for other levels start on other Mondays throughout the year except on Panamanian national holidays. In these cases, groups will start on the following Tuesday. The following Panamanian national holidays are observed by our Spanish school.
