LEARN SPANISH IN YOUR GAP YEAR - VISIT GUATEMALA IN CENTRAL AMERICA

A gap year is a great opportunity to explore yourself and to spread your wings. A great way to spend some or all of your gap year is to travel and find out more about the world and its people. And you can learn the Spanish language too.

Central America is a fascinating part of the world, it is very student and backpacker friendly and in particular, Guatemala offers a unique insight into the Mayan culture and people of the region.

By the end of your gap year taking Spanish courses in Guatemala will give you skills in Spanish that you will keep for life. Spanish immersion schools and Spanish language classes in Guatemala are perfect for a gap year because they allow you to enjoy your gap year in a beautiful Central America country, to get to know local people, to meet other international students and to learn Spanish in a fun and relaxed way.

Students and backpackers will grow greatly during this gap year experience as they will have new and exciting experiences whilst living and travelling in Guatemala, practicing new Spanish language skills and finding out about the Mayan way of life in Guatemala.

Spanish classes at Spanish School Jabel Tinamit in Panajachel are designed for international students so you will feel very much at home. We have students learning Spanish from the USA, UK, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Germany, Netherlands, France, Italy, India, China and many, many more countries. You will be very welcome in Guatemala and very welcome to study Spanish with us.

Still not sure taking a gap year? Many of our students find that it gives them time to consider the future and to select the right University course for them. It opens up new horizons, gives unique life experiences and, if you attend a Spanish school in Guatemala and take Spanish lessons, your gap year leaves you with a valuable new professional skill.

There are many Spanish schools in Guatemala. Why use your gap year to go on a Spanish Course in Panajachel in Guatemela, Central America? Find out more about Spanish School Jabel Tinamit and Guatemala on our website at: http://www.jabeltinamit.com

Our website gets even better!

We are very pleased to announce that our Spanish language school website has just received a full make-over. The navigation and structure has been improved to make it even easier to find all the information you need about the Spanish courses that we run here in Panajachel, Guatemala. You can even see 2 videos about our Spanish School and Panajachel.

There is now a comprehensive section, called "Location", that brings together loads of details about Panajachel and the Atitlan region. And plenty of photos of Lake Atitlan itself.

The all new "Spanish Courses" section explains how we offer a flexible approach to learning Spanish in Guatemala and, unlike most other Spanish language schools, we can create a Spanish course just for you, with Spanish lessons when and where you want them. We do 1-to-1 Spanish lessons; but we can also teach you with up to 2 friends if you prefer. We can take the Spanish classes out into our garden or into real life situations in Panajachel. In 2007 we also started online Spanish language classes using a webcam and a system like Skype. Check out the new website for details.

We really hope that you like our new website and that it helps you decide on the Spanish language course, in Guatemala, that's perfect for you! Visit: http://www.jabeltinamit.com

OUR ONLINE LESSON WITH TRACE

You really can study Spanish at home! This is my view of Trace when I am teaching him Spanish online using Skype or Yahoo! Messanger or MSN PC to PC Free Phone and a webcam. The Internet is fantastic for teaching Spanish. Of course, he sees a big picture of me - its just like we are in a face-to-face Spanish lesson here in Guatemala.
