LEARN SPANISH FASTER IN COSTA RICA WITH TRADITIONAL COOKING RECIPES!

Want to learn Spanish faster? These students are learning Spanish in Costa Rica and they are learning Spanish faster than most.  Why is that?  They are taking Spanish classes in Costa Rica at SEPA Spanish Language School where Spanish is taught through interests and experiences, instead of just seat time in a classroom.

Don’t get me wrong – you need some seat time, but if that’s all you’re getting, that’s as far as you’re going to get.  At SEPA Spanish Language School students learn through fun strategies: lessons, real life situations, volunteer work, and adventure.

WHERE DO ‘TRADITIONAL COSTA RICA COOKING RECIPES’ FIT IN WITH ‘LEARN SPANISH FASTER’?

It’s been a long proven fact that people learn faster when they are doing things they enjoy.  When food is involved, well, say no more!  But SEPA uses more than just cooking classes to get their students’ Spanish juices flowing.

Meaningful volunteer work, sports activities, field trips, and homestay with a Costa Rican family, are all essential ingredients of the learning recipe that SEPA Language School teachers cook up for their students every day. Get your Spanish juices flowing through ACTION!
