Juan Carlos was my online Spanish teacher from October 2020 until June 2021. Juan Carlos is an excellent teacher! He has a way of teaching that comes naturally. Also, his command of the English language makes learning from him easy.

I met Eduardo & his team while travelling through Guatemala in 2019 and had a fantastic time studying Spanish with them in San Pedro la Laguna. Not only did my Spanish improve dramatically in the time I was there thanks to the fantastic teachers,

I started learning Spanish and I decided to attend a school in Guatemala last year (2022) for one month of vacation. My friend went to Semilla Spanish School and highly recommended it. My time at Semilla Spanish School was incredible. I learned so much and was able to experience beautiful Lake Atlitlán and San Pedro la Laguna, meet a lot of great people, and advance my Spanish a lot. After visiting the school, I continue to take lessons online over Zoom with my teacher Juan Carlos and my Spanish continues to advance. I highly recommend this school and experience to anyone looking for Spanish lessons in an incredible location. You can study in-person or if you can't travel, you can study through online tutoring around your schedule

Semilla is soo much more than a Spanish school!! Okay, if you want to learn Spanish, definitely go there, because the teachers are the friendliest people, they can immediately tell what level you are at and make an individual plan with you, based on your skills, goals and preferences… And if you want to have a really fun time, mingle with locals, Guatemala culture, want te be part of a family… than DEFINITELY go here! The school felt like one big family! I stayed in a host family and couldn’t wish for a better host! My “mom” became such a good friend! We hang out in the weekends, she took me to the most beautiful places and we really communicated well, although the language barrier. The opportunity to work with some local kids is really a plus! The kids are very willing to learn, sweet and amazingly enthusiastic! Thank you for this great experience, Semilla!

Within my 2.5 months trip through Central America I felt the need to learn Spanish to make the trip an even better experience. Semilla Spanish School was recommended to me and when I reached out to them they were super responsive and helpful. When I reached out, I was still in Costa Rica, however within 2 days my Spanish lessons (1 week), including a home stay with a Guatemalan family and the transport from the airport were arranged so that 2 days later I already could start the lessons in Guatemala. My maestro Manuel was a great teacher who perfectly executed my needs. The lessons were tailor-made based on my preferences, a lot of fun and I had the possibility to talk to Manuel about live in Guatemala as well.
