Language School Chichén Itzá - 77710 Playa del Carmen

Alejandro is an Fabulous teacher. He keeps lessons interesting and focuses on making them relevant to what you want to learn. As a beginner to Spanish he is always patient and encouraging with me. These have been the most entertaining lessons I have had in any subject - fun, interesting and thought provoking, any expectations have been beyond met. I have already improved my Spanish to a ridiculous degree and will be continuing these lessons for as long as I can. I could not recommend a teacher more highly."

Language School Chichén Itzá is one amazing place that does not feel like school whatsoever. It feels like home or a friends house where you go and have fun. My friend and I took 40 hours of classes in a month (two hours a day) but the classes went by so fast. It feels like you are chatting in Spanish with your friend for two hours even though you are a beginner in Spanish. Professor Alex did not speak English with us at all and our Spanish wasnt so good at the beginning but we could somehow always understand each other. Every Wednesday and Friday we had cooking and salsa classes with Alex' family which are a lot of fun too. Our Spanish has improved a lot in a month and we are able to hold a conversation now especially if people talk mas despasio ha! Alex is not only a great professor but he is also like a mentor or a friend that wants to help you with anything you need. This was definitely one of the best decisions I have done in my life and hopefully we can be back soon!

Was down for a few week to Playa del Carmen, and decided to take some spanish Lessons. Took 15 private lessons with Alex and he was a patient and very good teacher. The price was very reasonable, as I bought in groups of 10 and 5. One hour a day was perfect, as homework is assigned each day and you need to review previous work. He does an assessment of your level prior to class (I was starting from almost scratch except for a few weeks of online apps to help with words, etc). Overall a great experience with a nice family run business.

I took private Spanish lessons. So much fun and really enjoyed the conversation based approach. Haleyda was a wonderful warm and friendly teacher. I appreciated the air conditioning in the classroom. I would highly recommend it. I plan to return next year and take group lessons.

We had such a wonderful experience of 2 weeks learning spanish from scratch. The whole family is just amazing. They are so kind and friendly and made the place something very special! Haleyda was our teacher, and i can't imagine someone teaching spanish to people with no skills better than she did! Despite that the whole family was always giving out good recommendations and were always very helpful! If you want to learn spanish in playa del carmen, you have to go to this spanish school!!!! Muchas Gracias!!!!

I would highly recommend to everyone. Definitely worth it I took private lessons with Haleyda. In around 35 hours of classes in 2 months I significantly increased my language skills. It was my first contact with Spanish and now I have no problem to have have chat with people :D It is mostly because of great teaching talent of Haleyda. She is very positive and patient person. Very friendly. Classes were always interesting, kept in good atmosphere. We always started and ended with conversation in Spanish. I felt more like friend than student there, always welcomed. During classes we barely used English. I was positively suprised how quickly I was able to understand in Spanish.

I would give 10 stars if I could. I learned Spanish in school and did group classes as an adult for years but didn’t remember much. Within just three weeks of one on one tutoring with Professor Alejandro (Alex) I have improved tremendously. The lessons were effective and he’s very patient. What makes this place so special is the family owned aspect and the way they make you feel so welcomed. You’ll learn Spanish and get to know the beautiful culture. Prof. Alex and his daughter include cooking classes and salsa lessons at the school as well! The prices are extremely affordable for this experience of a lifetime. Do NOT miss out.

What a find! Definitely worth our time and money. Big thanks to Alex, his family and friends for coordinating these lessons and for the bachata classes! We loved meeting the other students in the language and optional dance classes as well. My fiance and I took two weeks of intensive Spanish lessons here with Alex. We really enjoyed our time and the lessons were quite rigorous. We went into the classes with some basic Spanish skills. Alex taught completely in Spanish (with some code switching for some words in English) but he was careful to speak at a pace and with vocabulary and grammar that was accessible for us to understand. We met from 10am until 2pm everyday with a break in between. We had conversation lessons, grammar, reading and writing. Our class sizes ranged between 3 to 6 people, depending on the day but I think we all felt that we had plenty of opportunity to speak and practice individually. I am very pleased with the progress I've made here and may continue lessons via Skype in the future! Also, big thanks to Javier for the fun bachata lessons!
