Our confidence stems from the knowledge that acquiring a stronger understanding of Spanish language and Latino culture opens the door to an exciting world of literature, history, music, art, philosophy, and business. It is certain that the best way to acquire a stronger understanding is through the process of full language and cultural immersion.
Founded in 2003, Amistad Institute is an organization located in Heredia and Jaco Beach, Costa Rica.
