Finding Intensive Spanish Course in Bogot&#2013265921;

Hi All,

I am an expat living in Bogot谩 and my husband will be joining me in 2 weeks. He speaks no Spanish, so I am trying to find a good, affordable, intensive Spanish course for him to take. Does anyone have any suggestions? We are open to small classes or a private tutor. He will probably be taking classes for 2-3 months.

I have researched the following online, but I am not sure of the quality of any of them, and some are a little costly.

- Language International (languageinternational.es)
- Universidad Sergio Arboleda (usergioarboleda.edu)
- Berlitz (too expensive)

Any advice would be much appreciated. We live close to el parque 93, so anything close to that would be even better.

Thanks,
Mindy

It might help!

Hi Woolen,
Did you manage to find any courses? I just arrived and am also looking for intensive spanish courses. I was recommended the Allianza Francesa but their courses start at the beginning of the month.. They also suggested that we could start a semi-private class with a few people together..
Looking forward to hear from you..

Here is a great new school that just opened with some of my old teachers from another school. These where the best teachers I had and they started their own school. I would highly recommend them to teach you Spanish.

For spanish and english classes, [moderated: no free ads pls]

If your husband does not speak any spanish, it should be easy for him to pick it up.聽 Columbia has a very interesting accent and different than say, Ecuador or Venezuela.聽 I like the accent alot and should not be a problem for him.聽 Have fun.
