 Language Learning Priorities: Private or Group?

With private classes you will receive 100% of the professor’s attention. Your class scheduling will have the most flexibility. Private classes are often the most productive. Intensive Private Courses or classes can start any day all year.

At PILS all of our group classes are small, no more then 6 people. This secures a faster moving class with more than enough instructor attention. Group classes are often more entertaining due to the class dynamics, learning games, and activities.

*Intensive Group Courses start on the first Monday of every month November - May and are subject to availability

How to make the most of your money and time:

Taking a minimum of 2-4 hours daily combined with a home stay accommodation is the most effective, efficient, and culturally enriching way to learn Spanish and to get to know the Chilean people. PILS finds the best and most rewarding homestays for our students. Read about Drew Waterhouse's homestay experience in fall 08.
