We have a variety of flexible Spanish courses and special programs that are designed to suit everyone, from business executives to college students. Cultural activities, local excursions, and friendly host family accommodations allow you to get know the language and the culture. Our facilities are the best in town, with comfortable classrooms, a computer lab with Internet access, and even an outdoor terrace. We offer a warm and welcoming environment where you will feel at home from the moment you arrive.


 Satisfaction Guaranteed!:

Satisfaction Guaranteed!No Translation in Class
We use the direct method of language instruction, which means that the student and the teacher speak only in the language being learned. There is never any translation in the classroom and this makes you talk and think in Spanish. Students are always amazed at how quickly and easily they learn with this method!

Teacher Rotation
The people you speak with every day all have different accents, voices, pronunciation, and vocabulary; therefore, it is important that you not become accustomed to just one teacher. We rotate teachers in class, exposing you to many types of speakers and ensuring that you understand the language in a variety of situations. Teacher rotation also keeps class fresh and interesting.

Emphasis on Communication
Our methodology focuses on speaking and listening. Grammar, reading, and writing are all included, but we teach it through a very practical approach without being tedious, boring, or repetitive. You will speak the language, not analyze it. We believe that the key to learning a new language is communication.

Materials & Homework
Study materials such as textbooks and workbooks are included in your program. Additionally, you may be assigned a small amount of homework. This will give you the opportunity to continue your language learning outside the classroom and to supplement your conversational instruction with some reading and writing


 Programs for Everyone:

Our school in Santiago also functions as a social center during your time abroad. We offer happy hours and coffee breaks so you can get to know your teachers and fellow students, computers with Internet connection so you can keep in touch with friends and family, and cultural activities such as museum visits and vineyard tours to help you make the most of your time abroad. That means that even though you are worlds away from home, you won’t be alone and you’ll never be bored!


 Activities & Excursions:

Excursions are a great way to practice your Spanish outside of class while getting to know the country and culture around you. Two afternoons a week, you and your classmates will have the opportunity to explore the beautiful city of Santiago with a Bridge Spanish teacher as your guide. Excursions are included in the cost of all programs; however, students are expected to pay for their own public transportation costs and entrance fees (if applicable).


 Accommodations:

We highly recommend that BridgeChile students stay with a local family during their course. It is a great wAccommodationsay to practice your Spanish skills outside the classroom and to learn more about the country’s culture, people, and cuisine. Homestays allow you to fully immerse yourself in the study abroad experience and can be an integral part of your language learning.

Hotels typically offer more amenities and privacy and are recommended for students who prefer more luxurious lodging or who may have guests. We work with a number of hotels close to the school. These hotels include a private bathroom and cleaning service, and laundry service is typically available. In hotels and apart-hotels, meals are generally not included, with the exception of breakfast in some locations. Apart-hotels also include a small kitchenette and living area.
