I was amazed on how much Spanish I was able to learn in only 4 weeks. Now I can have a regular conversation with Native Speakers.

I paid the down payment in advance for this school, which advertises itself as a medium sized school. When I actually arrived, there were only seven students (the 50 that had been there when I registered had gone home). I was disappointed since I had thought I had registered for a larger school. When I mentioned this, and asked if I could have my deposit back, since it wasn't what it had advertised itself to be, I was told no. Then I broke my wrist and had to come home before my classes were to begin. When I notified the school from home that I had had a medical emergency and had to return to the states and asked for my deposit to be returned, they refused to do this. For obvious reasons, I would not recommend this school to anyone.

I have previously attended several schools in Mexico, Guatemala and Ecuador. This last January I studied at the Spanish Institute of Merida and I can honestly say that it tops them all. It is a mid-size school with great location and nice facilities.

I am generally a very critical person, so it surprises me that I can't think of any improvements the institute should consider. It's obvious that a lot of thought has gone into how the school is organized and managed. I arrived at the institute already knowing a lot of Spanish but I lacked of confidence in my ability to converse, as well as read high-level written material. I left with the knowledge that I can definitely do both now! Thank you!

The school has a great location, minutes from downtown. I felt the teachers were genuinely interested in their student and the class sizes were small. The host families were very accommodating and friendly. I'd highly recommend this school!

I attended the Spanish Institute of Merida in November of 2009. This was a very pleasant experience for me. Everything turned out to be just as advertised and the the Directors and Staff were not only very professional, but also very nice, enjoyable people. My teacher was well qualified and serious about the academics. Merida is a lovely and fun city with a vibrant nightlife, but not spoiled by excessive tourism yet. And the City is safe. The home-stay was everything it was supposed to be, a nice local family, and I had my own private room & key to the house, air conditioning and private bath with hot water.

Four of us in our family went for a week (mother + three kids) and we really liked it. The school owners made us feel like family, the host family was extremely nice, the meals were delicious, and the teachers were awesome. Everybody was very patient with the children whose ages ranged from 6 - 10. We did a few of the extra activities and it really enhanced the whole experience. And most important of all for a language school: we all improved our spanish!
