La Casa en el Arbol's Mission Statement: We understand that each student has special needs and interests. One of our strongest points is that we have the flexibility to personalize our Spanish program to tailor-fit each student according to their needs. We believe that students should have the knowledge of the politic and social situation of the country in which they study. We also believe that if a student lives and has an understanding of the culture of Mexico, it is much easier to acquire the Spanish language.
