Lessons
The lessons at our language school in Pichilemu are flexible and tailored to the individual language level of our students. The fastest, most effective way to learn a language is by immersion – in and out of the classroom. Therefore, the approach taken is to speak as much Spanish as possible during and outside of class. The teachers are all native speakers with university degrees and also speak English.

About the City
Pichilemu is considered the secret capital of the small but very lively scene of windsurfers, kite surfers and surfers in South America. The small seaside resort 250 km south of Valparaíso attracts beginners as well as professionals with great waves and hot parties, especially in summer. Every year, many European and American surfers visit the city’s beaches. Various international surfing competitions and music events are held in Pichilemu throughout the year.
Pichilemu is a small, manageable town with many restaurants, cafes, pubs and discos. Everything in Pichilemu is within walking distance. For a language trip to Chile, Pichilemu is the ideal place for everyone who is looking for a contrast to the hustle and bustle of a big city. Many of our participants combine a language course in Santiago de Chile with Pichilemu and thus benefit from both sides.
In Pichilemu and the surrounding area there are small forests and beautiful parks, such as the Municipal Park Agustín Ross Edwards, which has been a national monument since 1988. Wonderful lagoons in the surrounding area invite you to hike and picnic. In Pichilemu itself, bicycles and mountain bikes can be rented to explore the beautiful surrounding area on your own.
