STUDENTS

We maintain a broad and diverse student group, which ensures a lively and interesting atmosphere at the school. Some come to study Spanish travel and leisure purposes others for professional reasons.

The majority of our students are between 18 and 35 years old, however, we have had students aged 16 as well as aged 70. The gender split is roughly 50% - 50%.

About 60% of students come from Europe (especially Scandinavia, UK, Germany, Switzerland, and Holland), some 30% from the U.S.A. and Canada, and the remaining 10% are mainly from Australia, New Zealand and Asia..

Student testimonials:

"There seem to be so many schools in Quito to choose from but the Instituto Superior is definitely a standout!"
Jeremy Kong, Australia

"The school prepares individual programs for all of its students that correspond to each person's specific level and goals."
Josee Gaudreau , Canada

"They organize ´home-stays´ which means living with a local family. They are well selected, reasonably priced and a must for those who share my belief that you cannot learn a language without immersing yourself in the culture."
BJ McAuliffe , New Zealand

"The organised excursions were fantastic! One weekend I found myself wading knee deep through a river to get to a beautiful waterfall hidden in the rainforest. The next week I was riding a horse in a forgotten mountain valley!"
Phillip Schenker, Switzerland

"I would absolutely recommend Instituto Superior de Español to all travellers who come to Quito to learn Spanish while getting to know the culture and having a great time."
Ricarda Klubendorf , Germany

"I attended two respected Spanish schools in Guatemala and in New York, both of which paled in comparison to Instituto Superior de Español in terms of quality of teaching and my overall experience!"
Ivan Peill, USA
