Teaching follows a personalised method in which each student works at their own pace with an individual work plan. The school has a staff of 35 teachers, all college graduates with a certificate in teaching Spanish as a second language. Classes run between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m., depending on how many hours a student books; in a typical four-hour course, the first half covers new grammar and the second half puts it into practice. Individual and group plans are also available for younger learners. Students register through an online form on the school's website.
