NRCSA Center: Mayan Riviera Spanish School - Playa del Carmen, Mexico  


 

About the NRCSA Center

Located a short distance from pristine white sand beaches, The Mayan Riviera Spanish School has designed its programs to accentuate its unique Caribbean location. The school features open style architecture, with most classes and on-site cultural activities taking place in thatched roof learning areas called palapas, which are surrounded by tropical gardens. The school design creates a relaxed and inviting atmosphere in which to intensively learn Spanish.

The school opened its doors in 1997 with the dual mission of offering high quality instruction of Spanish as a second language while offering a memorable cultural experience. To meet these primary goals, the school employs a staff of professional native Spanish-speaking Mexican instructors with more than 15 years of teaching experience. Each instructor has been trained in the instruction of Spanish as a Second Language, and brings unique professional, cultural, and academic experience to the classroom. While having excellent instructors is of paramount importance, the school also strives to encourage an atmosphere that creates comfort and friendships between teachers and students
