Quito School
Our school also
operates in Quito! Quito is the capital of Ecuador and is known to
be the most beautiful capital city in South America. It is an
excellent place to learn Spanish. In fact it is such a special place
that
UNESCO declared Quito
a World Cultural Heritage Site in 1978.
Quitsa-to, the original name of the
city, means "middle of the Earth" in the antique ‘tsafiqui’
language. The pre-Inca cultures developed their astronomical
knowledge assisted by the clear landmarks surrounding the city: the
Pichincha volcano (15,000 ft) to the West, the Antisana (18,700ft)
to the east, and the peak of the snow-caped Cayambe (18,725 ft) to
the Northeast, almost precisely on the Equator. The city itself
emerges over 9,184 ft above sea level; it is the second highest
capital in the world. Thus, Quito is the best natural astronomical
observatory on the planet.
The school in Quito:
The school in Quito is located in a residential neighbourhood, just
a few blocks from Parque Carolina. We operate in a very spacious
house with naturally well-lit classrooms, a social area, cafeteria,
and gardens.
Our programs: In Quito, we offer individual
classes or group classes for friends that are traveling together, as
well as classes for groups and individuals who wish to study with
other students with similar levels of Spanish ability. We also offer
different options of accommodation: homestay, student apartment, or
in a hotel.
