What our students said about Oaxaca

I would like to return to enjoy sightseeing since I missed it this time. Cabs were not metered and were overcharged, making them too expensive since I could not use Uber.

3.0Maki Mexico

A beautiful, interesting city, lots of music and art. Lively and varied.

5.0Rudolf Germany

Nice little downtown, not much to do after one week.

3.0Alain Canada

I would recommend it and I hope to return.

Most recent student reviews of language schools in Oaxaca

Even though I was only there for one week, I noticed the teachers were kind, and I had a great time. I was surprised to learn on the first day that the school would be closed on Thursday and Friday for Semana Santa. While it caught me off guard, I was glad they offered us special classes.

The quality of the lessons was good with a good teacher. Especially very practical with an emphasis on talking and listening!
The classrooms echo quite a bit, so it is sometimes difficult to understand.

Information about Oaxaca

Why Oaxaca? A cultural colossus fit to rival anywhere in Latin America, Oaxaca is a city in central Mexico. Lovers of culture will be in heaven here as Oaxaca is one of those cities where all the historical periods of a country shines: pre-Hispanic, colonial, independent, modern, and contemporary. It is an architectural gem with natural elegance in every corner, colonial building, museum, pre-Columbian ruins and the many brilliant baroque churches that are to be found at every turn. All of this coupled with its majestic churches and refined plazas have deservedly earned it a Unesco World Heritage badge. And if that's not enough to get you planning your trip already, fluorescent lagoons, lush mountains, culture, crafts, gastronomy, folklore, fiestas and many more great experiences should definitely win you over.
