The new Spanish school in Santiago de Chile is located in Providencia town near two big avenues, Av. Libertador Bernardo O’Higgins and Av. Providencia. The official inauguration of the School will be on February the 1st. There you can learn Spanish taking private or group classes and combine your program with salsa lessons, culture, ski lessons in winter and so on.
How to get to the school: It is very simple. You just have to take Santiago’s metro, get off at Baquedano station Line 1 and walk 100 meters towards the south along Vicuña Mackena st. until Almirante Simpson st. Just in the corner of these two streets you will find our beautiful big house: Almirante Simpson 014.There are also other ways to get to the house. One of them is taking the Colectivo del Transantiago (public means of transport), whose bus lines go to different parts of the city, both along Libertador Bernardo O’Higgins Av. and Providencia Av.
The Spanish school was built in 1925 by Ricardo Larraín Bravo, a recognized architect of the time. Now the building is recognized as a National monument and belongs to the historic center of Chile.The Spanish School has 12 classrooms, Video room, Internet, cafeteria and a big terrace with a wonderful view of the city center of Santiago.
