Description: Our school is located in an area of Santiago called Providencia, near downtown but still retains a suburban touch.

There are many restaurants, cafes, bars, clubs, stores, metro stations, bus routes and parks. We have 7 classrooms, media center and library, lounge, two bathrooms, kitchen, patio and offices. It is open from 8 am to 9 pm during the week and from 9 am to 1 pm on Saturdays. Our group classes never have more than 6 students and unlike other schools, we provide the students with authentic coursebooks (not photocopies). We offer accommodation and activities as part of the immersion experience, as well as special programs such as skiiing, salsa and merengue and wine tours.
