A personal way to learn

Your teacher’s full attention.

Since 1978, our approach has been simple: Spanish is learned best when the class is built around the student. Your teacher adapts each lesson to your level, interests, goals, and the Spanish you want to use.

Built around you

Conversation, grammar, travel, work, volunteering, healthcare, or everyday life.

Real-life practice

Use Spanish around Antigua, not only in a classroom.

A human experience

Learn with people who know your name, your goals, and your progress.

Our story

Nearly five decades of teaching Spanish in Antigua.

Spanish Antigua continues a family teaching tradition that began in 1978, when Elisa Pellecer and Abel Aquino started welcoming international students to Antigua Guatemala. Today, that same belief in personal teaching and genuine connection continues under the Spanish Antigua name.
