4 hours of class. The rest of the day is yours.
Your class block is in the morning (8–12) or the afternoon (1–5), depending on availability. The rest of the day is yours.

Got questions? We’ve got answers.
When can I start?
Any Monday of the year, for one week or as many as you like.
What level do I need?
None — beginners to advanced are welcome. If you are not a total beginner, we assess your level when you start so you join the right group.
What if there is no group at my level?
Then your 4 group hours a day become 2 private hours a day, at the same price.
What times are the classes?
4 hours a day, Monday to Friday, in a morning (8–12) or afternoon (1–5) block depending on availability. One class hour is 55 minutes.
Are activities included?
Each school offers weekly cultural and social activities. They are not included in the course price.
How much does it cost in total?
$250 for 1 week, $480 for 2, $700 for 3 and $910 for 4; each extra week is $205. Add a one-time $50 registration fee. Prices include local taxes and payment fees. Accommodation and transfers are separate.
How do I book?
Send us the booking form with your course and any extras. We reply with an invoice and a secure payment link for the $100 deposit, which reserves your place. About two weeks before you start you receive a voucher with your arrival details. The rest is paid on your first day — cash, PayPal, credit card or bank transfer.
What if I need to cancel?
Up to 2 weeks before the start, $50 of the $100 deposit can be refunded. Once the course has started there are no refunds, except in exceptional cases that we review one by one. Accommodation, transfers and excursions follow each provider’s own cancellation terms.
Where do I stay?
You choose: our own hostels in Bocas del Toro, Boquete and Turrialba, a homestay, or partner accommodation — from $18 a night. See accommodation prices.
Can I study in more than one location?
Yes. You can combine our schools in Costa Rica and Panama and keep the same course — tell us your plan and we organise the change.
