Lucía Alvarado Cantero

Lucía Alvarado, former Academic Director

Lucía joined Habla Ya on a temporal contract during 3 months to do the training of our first teachers. Our first teachers had Spanish degrees from local universities but no previous experience in teaching Spanish to foreigners. She could not stay any longer due to Panamanian immigration laws.

SIGN UP & REGISTER TO LEARN SPANISH AT PANAMA'S LEADING SPANISH SCHOOL »

Panamanian Spanish Schools are very recent in comparison to their counterpart in Costa Rica. In Costa Rica you can find more than 70 or 80 language schools throughout the country and several of them have been around for more than 30 or 40 years. In Panama you will not find schools with more than 15 years of experience in teaching Spanish. This is why we decided to import Lucía's experience from Costa Rica.
