Heredia

Term: Throughout the year 
Dates: Year round

Description: Centro Panamericano de Idiomas (CPI) is the only Spanish immersion school in Costa Rica that allows students to study at three separate campuses, in three distinct regions of the country - Heredia, Monteverde, and Flamingo Beach.

At each campus, we maintain the same high-quality teaching methodology, faculty, and administrative resources, to ensure students receive the same first-rate instruction no matter where they choose to study.

Our programs are appropriate for families, college students, professionals, as well as retired couples.

CPI's teaching methodology is based on daily conversations derived from the interests of the students. The conversations are guided by the professors and are supplemented by oral and written exercises as well as other activities in which the students can practice what they have learned. CPI's programs are designed for students of different levels (beginner, intermediate, and advanced and superior) with time periods of 2, 4, 6, 8 or more weeks.

Highlights: Activities in Heredia include visits to a butterfly farm, a tour of a local coffee plantation, waterfall rapelling, hiking to the Barva Volcano, rain forest canopy tours, river boat excursions to Sarapiquí, as well as trips to museums, theatres, movies, and nightclubs in San José. The staff at CPI also arranges planned excursions throughout the week. San Joaquín is an excellent base from which to visit all of Costa Rica. This central location makes travel to San José easy, where bus connections to any part of the country are readily available.
