Amigos Spanish School Cusco

Amigos Spanish School is based in Zaguán del Cielo in Cusco. Its teaching approach focuses on language for travellers and the cultural contexts in which Spanish is used. Materials include vocabulary, expressions and situations drawn from Peru and other Spanish-speaking settings, rather than treating language entirely as a set of isolated grammar rules.

Grammar and conversation together

Classes combine grammar with speaking practice under a Spanish-immersion approach. The school offers individual lessons and small groups of up to four learners. Its curriculum is designed to accommodate different levels of previous Spanish study.

Individual teaching allows the weekly and daily lesson commitment to be discussed around the learner’s needs. Group classes are normally scheduled in a morning block, although arrangements can be discussed with the group. Students travelling together should clarify the distinction between individual, paired and small-group tuition.

Culture as part of learning

Amigos describes extracurricular activities that connect language with local culture, including city exploration and Andean weaving. Quechua lessons are also offered as a separate option. These can appeal to learners interested in the wider linguistic setting of Cusco as well as Spanish for daily travel.

The school’s current contact address uses adjacent units B-22 and B-23 in Zaguán del Cielo; they are represented as one school here. A useful course enquiry should explain the situations you want to handle in Spanish, your current confidence in conversation and the time available during your stay.
