'Place of frogs', or Quanax-Huato, is what the Tarascan Indians named it. And 'place of silver' is probably what the Spanish conquistadores would have called this beautiful highland city if they could. Set in a narrow gorge amid wild, breathtaking scenery, and an important centre for mining since the mid-16th century, Guanajuato has long been attracting visitors and, consequently, settlers. Today it's the locals and the many university students who enjoy the elegant buildings, colonial architecture and fine museums of this central Mexican World Heritage site.

Among the city's steep, twisted lanes you'll come across some stunning buildings, breathtaking views. As a small city, Guanajuato offers school groups the benefit of all the benefits of a modern city, while at the same time preserving the colonial charm and slow pace of life of traditional Mexico.

The school is located right in the city centre in the Barrio Pastita only 10 minutes from the “Teatro Juarez” which is a major attraction in Guanajuato, The area surrounding the school is quiet yet still in the centre which will give you the ideal environment in which to get the most out of your study.

The school has 15 classrooms, a computer room and a beautiful patio and recreation area. Classes at this school are deliberately kept small to ensure that students receive highly personalized tuition.

”All the teachers have been great - they are very positive and enthusiastic, the lessons have been really interesting and we have learnt a lot. We would definitely recommend this school and hope to return one day! The family has also been great, very welcoming and very accommodating. And Guanajuato itself is also a great place to learn Spanish!”
