The best way to develop conversation and reading skills en español is to immerse yourself where the language is spoken.

ABOUT THE DIRECTORY

The Directory of Spanish Language Schools (now in year #14) is a select guide for those seeking immersion lessons in Latin America and Spain. Debuting in 1994 this directory was the first of its kind on the Web and remains one of the most popular pages on Planeta.com. Schools are listed by continent and country and presented in the order they were accepted. The directory is updated at least once a month.

STUDENTS - Check out the answers to Frequently Asked Questions. If you choose a school from this list, please mention Planeta.com. If you have feedback (testimonial or criticism), send us an email.

SCHOOLS - If you run a school that should be featured on our site, here's the criteria. Premium coverage includes a directory listing and a link on the relevant country guide. The cost for a premier listing is $250/year. A listing in the directory alone is $100/year. Application

Featured operators have full access to Taller 21 (profiled here).

Renewal payments need to be made the month or two before expiration. We do not accept multiple-year payment.

PUBLISHERS - This feature is available for free syndication, provided that you contact us first. Those interested in publishing this article or Spanish Schools FAQ should request permission.

DISCLAIMER

Warning. We take no responsibility for problems resulting through the use of this directory.

DIALING - Note: If you are dialing from the United States, dial "011" and from Europe "00" first.
