I attended Casco Antigua Spanish School for 3 weeks - both the one-on-one and small group intensive sessions combined with daily activities really helped my Spanish. The fun, welcoming and energetic staff and location in the historic old town complimented the experience. They have the perfect learning/ travel combination!

After 3 weeks I had a solid foundation in the language to build upon. And the daily optional after class activities ( bike ride your, volleyball, salsa lessons etc) allowed you to practice Spanish outside of class.

We had a fabulous experience at the Casco Antiguo school. The teachers and staff were unbelievably friendly and helpful with everything. They made us feel like part of their family from the first day. I learned more during these 3 weeks of classes than I did during 4 years of classes in school. Most importantly, I gained a lot of confidence to practice my Spanish. I really enjoyed the free activities the school did every week; they gave me a great chance to meet other students and learn more about the Casco Viejo area. I would HIGHLY recommend this school! I can't wait to come back.

A wonderful school with caring staff. I was there for 3 weeks, if it weren't for responsibilities like work I would have attended indefinitely!
From day one we went out for part of the session to learn about local history and culture and to speak to locals. ( If you are shy, don't worry. The locals I talked to were friendly and willing to help.)
The staff, even those not my teacher, greeted me every day and learned my name so know they care about you and want you to feel welcome.
I loved the extracurricular activities. I did the biking and volleyball. If you aren't good at volleyball, don't worry. Nobody got mad or made me feel bad when I messed up (which is often!!). It's a fun way to hang out with staff and students and make connections while getting exercise. All skill levels accepted.
The classrooms are air-conditioned so if you aren't accustomed to tropical weather you'll be comfortable.
The pricing is very affordable. When I first signed up I was afraid I might get subpar quality but my concern was baseless. I learned a lot about the language as well as the history and culture of Panama.

This was a wonderful experience. I wish I had had more than one week to spend. I learned an awful lot in just a week. My confidence in speaking and communicating increased exponentially! The setting was amazing! Spending time in the old town wise a lovely experience. We stayed in an Airbnb condominium, which was very comfortable, and only two blocks from the school. In the afternoons, I wandered the streets enjoying the beautiful architecture and the good food. I would find a small café and drink my coffee and do my homework. I can’t wait to go back!

I attended 1-on-1 class at Casco Antiguo from 10/04 (TUES) - 10/07 (FRI), two hours per session for a total of eight hours of instruction. My teacher was Hector Gonzalez.

Hector customized the content of each session based on what I had previously expressed to be my proficiency gaps in Spanish. For example, some of what we covered were:

- When to use « se »
- When to use le, lo, etc …
- Verb tenses … imperfecto vs indefinido

We worked on reading comprehension, writing, and conversation.

I like this school for its quality of instruction, flexible scheduling, and location. Lastly, but not least and definitely just as important, Hector made the learning process fun and engaging.

Thank you, Casco Antiguo Team, for a lovely experience. I hope to be able to reconnect later down the road for more lessons.

A terrific school in a great location. The school will meet all your needs. Whether a quick refresh or a more in-depth nuanced understanding, Casco Antiguo can deliver. Great (and fun!) instructors that want you to succeed.

Location, Facilities, Instructors and don't forget location! Love Cosco.

My husband, myself, and our 11-year old son participated in classes at Casco Antiguo. Everyone we encountered at the school was friendly, helpful and created a great environment for us all. Our teacher kept the class interesting by teaching, including games, and taking us into the community for real practice. We are all beginner Spanish speakers, but Casco made us feel very comfortable. We also participated in the free activities of salsa dancing and the bike tour. The bike tour around the Costa Cintera was beautiful. Casco Antiguo Spanish School helped us fall in love with Panama! We plan to return to Panama and will definitely visit Casco Antiguo Spanish School when we do! I highly recommend Casco Antiguo for your Spanish learning needs.

Casco Spanish School provided a unique opportunity for our middle schoolers to spend 7 weeks learning Spanish from a native speaker. The entire staff is friendly and encouraging - it was a wonderful intro to the Spanish language. The school worked with us to schedule lessons that fit our schedule. We also appreciated how helpful the school was in providing recommendations for places to see during our stay in Panamá. A special thanks to Carlos and Tricia for making this experience so memorable. Communication with Tricia was fast and easy, and she was very accommodating when we had schedule change requests.
