It is certainly possible to have a wonderful time in Mexico without speaking Spanish; however, what better way to know Mexico than speaking the language and immersing in the culture?

The Spanish language is of great importance in the world and is a popular second or third language. There are more than 420 million Spanish speakers, and it is the fourth most common spoken language in the world after Mandarin, English and Hindi. If you live in the United States, and work in medicine, education, communications, a service industry, or international trade, you’ll expand your opportunities by knowing Spanish.

Opening our hearts and mind to the Mexican culture and language will help us understand how others learn and think, and you will make the time you spend in Mexico a more memorable experience.

Spanish is one of the easiest languages to learn, is a phonetic language and offers the opportunity to be immersed in the basics of latin, which would help you learn other romantic languages like Italian, French, or Portuguese.

Wether you do it for a few weeks, or a year, don’t miss the opportunity to learn Spanish and immerse yourself in the wonderful Mexican culture.
