The 10-hour group classes is a great option for those that want to try the program before committing to 20-hours or for those that have busy work schedules. Please note that while the 10-hour group class program does offer a great introduction to the Spanish language, the 20-hour group class program is the industry standard and results in improved language proficiency.

The 10-hour group classes are most often scheduled from 8-940am or 1-240pm so it leaves you with plenty of time to explore Nosara, surf, do yoga, etc. Please note that we are unable to guarantee specific time slots with the group classes as students will always be schedule according to their level (which we confirm on the first day of classes with an oral assessment).

At NSI we use a communicative teaching methodology, where the main goal is the improvement of the student´s communication skills, encouraging spontaneous and creative use of the language, using real communicative situations and activities that teach Spanish in the way we really use it.
