Looking to brush up on my language skills while in CR. Any exceptional places or tutors to checkout in either SJO or Jaco? part of my prep before going to MDE for the first time is becoming conversationally literate. |

The Spanish in Medellin is different than that in Costa Rica. I would suggest taking a class in Medellin. You may also meet a nice instructor or if the class is at a university you may meet a coed. |

Ahh... that is different. You have some background and so I get what you are trying to do. For someone starting from nothing a few days or a week isn't going to do much as far as having any sort of conversations. |

If you are looking for somewhere in Costa Rica I took classes up by Mall San Pedro and would walk back down to the gulch after class. The place is CRLA Costa Rica Language Academy. You can take classes for 1 hour to 6 hours a day. Since I would be in CR for almost a month at a time the first week I was there I would take a full day of classes for 5 days. You do have easy homework to do nightly and it mainly consisted of what did you do after school. Naturally I would make something up as I did not want to go into detail about what I really did LOL. Anyway in that week of class I would learn almost as much as a full semester at my local community college. Classes started about 8 and you got a break about 10:15 in their courtyard and they had some food available for purchase and coffee was free. For lunch I would walk up to Mall San Pedro and eat at the food court. After lunch the class was usually 1 on 1 with the instructor or maybe 1 other student. Most of the students go only up till lunch. https://spanishandmore.com/ |

Good suggestion. I took a class there many years ago and they do a good job. They test you to see your level of Spanish and put you in a class accordingly with others of the same level. Total beginner classes too. |
