Learn Spanish with Us

The Instituto Cultural Oaxaca offers various Spanish language programs for adults and children, including group classes, private classes, and online classes.

In all of our programs, students learn vocabulary and grammar appropriate for each level through the ‘four language skills: speaking, writing, listening, and reading. In addition, students can develop an understanding of Oaxacan and Mexican culture through our programs.  

Group Classes are the best option for students who want to learn Spanish in Oaxaca and begin their journey to Spanish Language or develop the Spanish they already have in an interactive environment with people worldwide.

When students arrive at the Instituto, they will take a placement test (written and oral) to determine their Spanish level and the appropriate class placement.  We keep the size of group classes small (minimum of 6 students), so they have the opportunity to participate in the class fully. 

Students looking for a Spanish language immersion can add to the main Spanish Language program cultural workshops, which regularly run in the afternoons from Monday to Thursday. 

ICO also offers an Intermcambio program which is available free of charge to all students. Students get to participate in a language exchange with a local student or professional through the Intercambio program. The Intercambio program is also free for Oaxacan students.
