The stay at Nicaragua mia was most helpful in focusing my efforts on key areas for improvement. The teaching methods were well adapted to my requirements and the teachers were excellent. It was very pleasant to be in a family home rather than in a school environment. This enhanced the learning experience

My Spanish improved a lot, and I am anticipating having it improve even more, during my next visit to Nicaragua. I don’t know yet when that might be, but I do know that I will return.

Thank you for the innovative approach to language learning, the wonderful teachers, and for making me feel so at home. Please feel free to give out my name and phone number to anyone interested in learning more about Nicaragua Mia Spanish School, as I’ll be happy to to help spread the word.

Again many thanks to everyone at Nicaragua Mia who helped make my experience there so positive.

When you arrive in Nicaragua, you will be met by an honest, reliable and friendly granadian taxi driver who will pick you up at the airport and bring you directly to the school.  He will be eager to speak to you in Spanish, of course!

Marlon and Eduardo are the people in charge of picking-up our students at the airport. The cost of this service must be paid to the school in dollars. Cash only please!

The goal of our teaching method is to teach the student so that the student learns the language while also coming to appreciate the Nicaraguan culture.

Our teaching method covers the four basic abilities: speaking, listening, reading and writing. We employ a multi-sensory technique which includes presentations and dynamic exercises along with written and oral communication activities.

Our classes combine audio and visual materials along with physical activities that get students up and out of their seats – all in a supportive and friendly environment.

It allows you to practice your daily lessons in a real life environment, and is also a wonderful opportunity to get to know the people of Nicaragua; their customs, food, and culture. Each home has been carefully selected according to standards that include safety, cleanliness, availability of a private bedroom which can be locked,and a location convenient to the school.

Prices include: - private room - purified water in bottles to drink - 3 meals a day, every day of the program - special menus for vegetarians - keys to the house and for your private room - close enough distance to easily walk to the school

Laundry service is also available for a small fee or students can wash clothes themselves for free in their host home.
