Our
Spanish Immersion Options for Nurses in Latin America including: Mexico,
Costa Rica, Honduras, Guatemala and More
Have
you ever wished that you could connect better with your patients of
Mexican/Latino background?
Do
you feel an ethical responsibility to provide nursing and medical services
in a more culturally competent and culturally sensitive manner?
Did you
grow up learning Spanish but never learned in class the grammar and would
now like to better understand this, improve the quality of your Spanish and
increase your confidence speaking Spanish in professional contexts, giving
presentations or teaching?
Nurses
and other healthcare professionals will benefit from our Spanish immersion
intensive courses both in new language acquisition as well as acquiring a
deeper understanding of Mexican and Latino culture. Even with a basic
understanding of simple Spanish and a deeper appreciation for Mexican and
Latino culture, you will be have increased confidence in approaching your
patients. These people will appreciate your reaching out to them by learning
some of their language. You will be able to understand important cultural
values related to religion, family, indigenous healing practices, communication
and respect. Your approach to working with your students will become more
culturally competent.
Our programs
are not like the typical classroom experience that you may be thinking of.
You will study in groups of no more than 5 students (average is 4 or less)
or in private classes. We can combine group and private classes for you if
you wish. In a tropical garden setting, you will study with students of different
ages and nationalities. Most of instructors in our partner schools have between
10 and 20 years of Spanish language immersion instruction experience and
are invested in your learning and having a good time while
doing so. That is why we call it "Fun and Learning, too!"
For students or university professors or Nursing Departments interested in
bringing a group with them of other students, we offer discounts or even
free Spanish classes, accommodations, meals, excursions and materials depending
upon the size of the group you bring. We can work directly with your university
study abroad or international studies department to help you with arrangements
and course approval. We will help you with a special webpage to promote your
group; flyers for your target group; help in arranging group travel rates
through Exito Travel; and help in arranging traveler's medical insurance.

In some cases, depending upon your level of Spanish, your length of studies
and the school location you decide upon, we can arrange a volunteer
experience in a hospital, women's clinic , children's home or orphanage or
family and children's throughout the year. Think of how this will impact
your understanding of your clients.
We are able to begin new classes each Monday, 52 weeks throughout the year.
Classes are arranged in weekly modules of learning
objectives.
