I stayed with Spanish Panama in total for 4 weeks during my encounters around the country. Enjoyed the atmosphere very much, it is rather a small boutique school, but with extremely intelligent, educated and interesting owners and staff, who do not seem to run the school only in order to suck money out of rich western kids and retirees, but...

I am very happy with the school. I have taken private lessons and am advancing rapidly, especially for someone who is older. The variety of teachers helps you learn different dimensions. Their teaching skills were very good and they provided training materials and other study aids. The program also included a city tour, with a taxi driver who helped me... More

I took 4 days of Spanish classes at Spanish Panama as soon as I arrived on my vacation and it helped me immensely during my subsequent 3 weeks in Panama. I went on to Brazil and since many people understand Spanish, I was able to use it to some degree. I'm in Argentina and will travel to a few other... More

I completed a total of 20 hours of classes at Spanish Panama and was very happy with the school. The teachers and staff are very nice. The school is in the perfect location - near shopping, cafes, etc. They are very flexible with your learning needs and schedule.

Although the school is a little hard to find it is worth the effort. It is very reasonably priced and very flexible. You can attned as many(or few) days as you want and have lessons for between 2-4 hours per day. The classes are very small(at most 4 students per teacher). They also have immersion programs where you can live... More

I have been blown away with Spanish Panama. It has been one of, if not the greatest experiences of my life, and I will not hesitate to spread the word.. I hope to return to Panama early next year, and when I do, I will definitely take more classes at Spanish Panama. I've done various spanish study programs in latin... More

My mother, husband, two children and myself were in Panama City for two weeks. We signed up for two-hour tutoring at Spanish Panama for that time. The adults each had their own one-on-one tutor (we were at very different levels of Spanish) and my children were together with another tutor. All of us liked our teachers and looked forward to...

I spent one wonderful week at the school during my 2 weeks vacation and I wish I had signed up for more! There weren't any other students at my intermediate 1 level during my week there so I was able to get one-on-one lessons at no extra charge. My teacher, Rubi, was excellent - very patient and intuitive about guiding... More
