Spanish Learning Classes in Cozumel |
 |
Vacationing in a foreign land is always exciting and can be a bit scary if English is not the first language of the country you are visiting and you don't know their language!! You could ask some one for a bathroom and get handed a banana instead!  The ultimate barrier to remove when trying to learn and understand a different culture is language. Once you can communicate with some one in their homeland and in their language, the final curtain is raised and an entirely different and expanded cultural experience awaits.
When visiting Mexico, most tourist destinations now have a large bi-lingual Spanish/English population and one shouldn't expect to encounter many language barrier problems. However, being willing and able to some extent to communicate in Spanish is very helpful and also alot offun!
If you think you might be interested in learning Spanish before coming to Cozumel, why not visit your local book store and pick up an entry level "Learn the Basics" type of reference book? We also invite you to visit our online comprehensive guide to Basic Spanish Phrases - Cozumel Insider's Spanish Guide. With the bookstore reference text and the Basic Phrases link above as overviews of Spanish language fundementals, you might decide you want to take your learning further while here in Cozumel on vacation.
| Learning Basic Spanish in Cozumel |
If you are interested in a cursory review of basic Spanish and how to pronounce various words/phrases, there is really no need to pay for a "course or class" to do this! Interestingly enough, because this is a tourist destination, there are many bi-lingual locals who would love to trade time with you and learn too!! They get to practice their English and ask questions while you do the same about Spanish! What a great way to meet new island friends too!! This is the most practical, economical and enjoyable way to see if Spanish is fun for you!
As a day visitor to Cozumel or and extended stay guest....
 ...just bring your reference book and a printout of the Basic Spanish Phrases guide along with you on your Cozumel vacation. Then visit your hotel lobby, a bar, a restaurant, your dive shop, etc. and ask around to see if there is some one who is interested in sharing this sort of experience with you. Chances are there is some one and the most it might cost you is a couple of tacos or something similar. This gives you the flexibility to spend as little or as much time learning Spanish as you like on your vacation here in Cozumel!
Now.....If you find learning Spanish exciting and challenging and you've tackled the basics and want to move up a notch, then you need a different level of Spanish speaking person to really teach you the fundementals over an extended stay. You need some one trained and skilled not only in speaking Spanish properly but in teaching as well. You will need a Spanish speaking, degreed educator with courses and learning materials designed for those wanting to develop their present knowledge for private, educational or professional reasons.
Other Languages are also available! English, French & Italian - Inquire!

Thank you for a wonderful experience during our three week vacation while staying at IslaMar Villas. Everything went smoothly for us - from our Open Water diving certification and subsequent dives with Dive Paradise to the days spent snorkeling at your PalMar Estate Beach Club or to just lounging around the pool. Service from your staff was impeccable and the mid-town location of the villas permitted us to interact daily with friendly Cozumelenos. We used your suggested restaurant list extensively and not once were we disappointed. In fact its use gave us the confidence to try many other local establishments. Finally, amongst all the music and dancing and party of Carnavale we wanted to note that exploring the ruins of San Gervasio became a sublime experience - a tranquil stroll in the jungle - a quiet time to contemplate nature and the continuity of human existence and accomplishment through time. Thanks again for all of the hospitality. Jeff and Deborah Norgren ~ Kelowna, British Columbia, Can

Sherri and her staff did everything under the sun to help us get on one of their shore excursions. Phone calls and emails were promptly acknowledged and answered cheerfully and professionally. These are "home" folks; no need to worry about language or accents getting in the way of success. Book with confidence, and have fun! J Meyers ~ San Antonio, Texas

I have not even been to Cozumel yet - we will be traveling to Cozumel next year and I love it already. I am addicted to your site and love the live web cam. Your site is the first thing I pull up in the morning. Cant wait to get to Cozumel! Thank you! Laura Randall ~ Marshalltown, IA - USA

We just got back from Cozumel last week and I'd like to thank you for answering all my questions and for setting us up on the Fury Snorkeling & Beach Party Tour and the van from Budget. This was the 4th time visiting the island and the 1st time that I didn't have the first bit of trouble with booking something online. Your service was great and I will be sure and book with you on my next trip. Thanks again! Danny Neal ~ Marshall TX

Your IslaMar Villas gave us a wonderful at home feeling, thanks to you !! Our upper unit was very comfortable and I liked the view of the neighborhood. We could even see a bit of how the neighbors lived and it really made you think of the comforts we take for granted. I loved getting up at sunrise as you could see and feel the early morning sun rising. You knew how good the day would be. I loved hearing the roosters in the morning and watching the locals as they got ready for their day ahead. From our upper unit you could not help to see this. The man on the bike ringing his bell with morning pastries. I remember how gracious you were to even come out and sit with us around the pool till late in the evening just talking as if we had been friends for a long while. Many thanks again for making our Cozumel trip so memorable! C. & P. Cavanaugh ~ Blaine, MN
