Peru Spanish Language School

Minimum age

Minimum age 17 years with parental consent, maximum decided on health and fitness of participant.

 

Accommodation

Throughout your Spanish language course you will be staying with a typical Peruvian family in homestay accommodation. The host families belong to the Peruvian middle class but please bear in mind, that living standards in Peru may not be the same as what you are used to, so you will need to be flexible in order to fit in with the Peruvian way of life. All families are known by the language school and have been chosen because they are friendly, welcoming and have homes where you will be safe.

 

Generally there will be one or two students per host family and you can expect a private bedroom and shared bathroom facilities. All families have Western amenities such as showers and flushing toilets. Your laundry will also be done for you about once a week. Staying with a host family will give you a unique and invaluable insight into Peruvian culture.

 

Some of our homestays are a 20 minute walk to the language school, while others are a 10 to 15 minute bus ride. Either way, all of the host families are conveniently located to ensure you reach class on time!

 

Meals

You will be given three meals a day (lunch is the main meal of the day, dinner is usually a light snack).
