Granada

Study Spanish in Granada's premier Spanish Language School that is a hub for cultural exchange, and better understand and explore the culture of Nicaragua, this still rather undiscovered country in Central America.

Joining the language school will also help you guarantee a brighter future for the local children. Nearly all the income from the Spanish classes at Casa Xalteva go to a project that aims to support underprivileged and vulnerable local youth. The funds from the language school go to providing the children two meals a day, all learning materials as well as scholarships to obtain the best possible education at all levels. In addition, there are volunteers at the project assisting with homework support, reading and writing, English classes, arts and crafts, sports, games, excursions, recreational activities as well as teamwork, leadership training and gender equality workshops.

Casa Xalteva Education and Cultural Center (the Spanish school and volunteer project) is located outside of the downtown area of Granada. Granada, also referred to as the 'colonial jewel', was founded in 1524 and is believed to be the second oldest city established in mainland Latin America by the Spanish conquest. During colonial times, Granada witnessed much unrest as the city was attacked several times by pirates. Nowadays Granada is characterized by bright-colored Spanish colonial architecture, visible throughout the city center. The ambiance is very pleasant and there is a wide array of nice restaurants and bars, especially along the boulevard from the central park to the shores of the Lake of Nicaragua. Although the city in itself is already an impressive attraction, the immediate surroundings make Granada a place you want to explore further.

Casa Xalteva offers short and long-term intensive Spanish courses for students at all levels. Each class is specifically catered to the students' wishes. At the beginning of each week your professor will find out the things that interest the group and plan the curriculum accordingly. Classes have an average of 2 and a maximum of 4 students. The Spanish classes normally take place in the mornings.

- Monday-Friday for 4 hours
- Normally in the morning between 8:00-12:00 with a 10-15-minute break for each session (there might be an opportunity to study Spanish in the afternoon between 13:00-17:00)
- Textbooks and materials designed for non-native speakers
- The teachers use an innovative "Spanish only" technique that has students speaking, writing and reading the language from the first day in class.

Weekends are free so you can explore the charming city of Granada and its surroundings, or simply relax at your accommodation.

The Spanish school is closed on 25 Dec and 01 Jan as well as on 01 May every year.

Minimum age 18 years

Your homestay accommodation with a local family is a great way to be in total immersion with the language and especially with Nicaraguan culture. All families are carefully selected to offer the best service possible and to make you feel at home. There are different types of families (for example with or without kids) to be able to find the best family for you.

Accommodation is in a private room with shared facilities. A number of families have more than one extra bedrooms so that for example two friends traveling together or two fellow volunteers can stay at the same accommodation.

If you are flying into Managua and have booked a transfer, we'll pick you up from the airport in Managua on a Sunday and take you to the project in Granada. Please note there is an additional charge if arriving between midnight and 06:00.

If you want to make your own way to Granada, please advise your travel advisor to book the program without the arrival transfer. The arrival day is also in this case Sunday, as you need to be ready to start your language course on Monday morning.

Getting to the school from your homestay
The project/school offers taxi options or you can use a bicycle. The taxi will pick you up at the homestay in Granada to the school and and also take you from the school to the family home. This is included in the price.

Three meals per day (breakfast, lunch and dinner) included.
