Ken, Canada - "Learning (Spanish) online has been a very positive experience for me. It has allowed me to learn language like youngsters learn language. They listen, repeat words, make phrases, and finally speak with sentences. Children learn tenses, vocabulary, and concepts very naturally. My online classes with Candelaria have allowed me to pursue this style of learning. Thank you Candelaria."

Barry, U.S.A - "I have had several on-line classes per week over the past few months It has been an excellent experience. I have learned more REAL Spanish in a few months than I had in several years of traditional methods with tapes, CD's and books. I highly recomend it to anyone wanting to learn REAL Spanish quickly."

Ingrid and Philippe, Belgium - "First we planned to study Spanish only during one week, but when we discovered the professionalism of our nice teachers and how they dedicate all their energy to their students, we decided to stay 4 weeks more. Candelaria and Gregorio were wonderful teachers who also made us discover a lot about Guatemala. We warmly recommend you to this school. It is really a nice experience to study here"

David Cohen, U.S.A - "I looked at schools in Antigua and none of them had the atmosphere of Spanish School Jabel Tinamit. I have never studied Spanish in a foreign country and I cannot wait to return in the future. I recommend this school to anyone who wants to learn Spanish and to have the time of their lives at the same time. I plan on telling all my friends about this school"

Alex Ismail, Nottingham, UK - "Thank you for a thoroughly productive three weeks. It is incredible to think how much I have achieved in so short a space of time. When I arrived here I knew only a handful of Spanish words but can now converse in Spanish on politics and read Spanish newspapers. This experience has meant that I can travel in Central America with greater confidence. Good luck with your fund raising and all the best for the future"

Michael Hoskin, Australia - "After trying other schools and not progressing as quickly as I liked, I decided to try this school mainly because of it's flexible hours. You can make your own program and change hours according your needs. It's a refreshing change to other schools. The relaxed atmosphere also helped me to chill out, and the teachers were of high quality with great patience. I would recommend any person to this school as I can now converse in the language"

Tio Roy, USA - "My family and I attended the school in the fall of 1999 for 2 weeks. What a wonderful experience! We stayed with a wonderful Mayan family. We were very safe and could even walk after dark without fear. While there I checked out other schools in Pana, Xela, and Antiqua. By far we picked the best school! I was concerned that studying with a Mayan owned school we might be picking up an accent or the grammar would be inferior. Boy was I ignorant! The teachers are highly educated and can quickly adapt to your level of Spanish and bring you up to greater conversational and reading skills.

My daughter, a musician, was intensely interested in the intimate details of grammar. She had taken intermediate Spanish as a home schooled high school student at the local community college in the Kansas City area 97-98. Summer 2000 she quizzed out of some Spanish and earned a minor in Spanish after her first semester at Ball State University in Indiana. My wife, a beginner, was able to grow in her understanding and confidence.

As an intermediate student, I was primarily interested in increasing my conversational skills. My instructor was easily able to create a program for my needs. One of the things that bothered me about other schools was that US contacts would promote these schools and rake funds off the top. This was not the case with Jabel Tinamit. All the money I paid went to the school. The prices were reasonable and fair. The field trips were excellent, and the school has bicycles for rent at better prices than in town."
