My husband and I spent 4 weeks studying Spanish st Ailola Quito. We took both private and group classes, my husband was a complete beginner and I had been studying Spanish for a few years. In both the group classes and the private classes the instruction was at a good pace and very through, the private classes were highly personalization. Both our teachers were exceptional. The classes were lively and very focused on conversation. I had a few years of studying Spanish, and Roberto, my instructor, identified the specific areas that I needed improvement with grammar and pronunciation and tailored the curriculum to fit my needs. My husband’s instructor, Adrianna did an excellent job relating the class material to daily life in Ecuador, so the classes very about not only learning Spanish, but learning about life in Ecuador and Ecuadorian culture. The school helped to organize tours, and when circumstances prevented our taking a planned tour, they worked with the operators to get an refund. They recommended and reserved, Mindo Coffee Lodge and Spa for a visit to Mindo, the hotel was lovely. The Airbnb they recommended for our stay, Old Towne Quito Suites, was also wonderful. I highly recommend this experience in Quito
