Introduction to Abraham Lincoln Binational Cultural Center


Spanish schools in Ecuador are the best place to learn Spanish for several reasons.

1.  The Spanish dialect of Ecuador is the most similar of all Spanish speaking countries to actual continental Spanish. An Ecuador Spanish school therefore is much more conducive to learning accurate Spanish.

2.  Climate. Let's face it, climate makes anything enjoyable. The year round Springtime weather of Cuenca, Ecuador makes for comfort and you need therefore to bring less range of clothing with you than in other Latin American countries. The climate of the South American Andes here on the Equator here is literally a perpetual Spring time climate due to the 2,600 meter altitude, and many English (called "Inglis" in Espaņol) students from all over Latin America flock to Cuenca. This makes Cuenca, Ecuador a school oriented town rich in culture and colonial flavor.

3.  Cuenca's proximity to many interesting, archaelogical, scenic and picturesque areas make Cuenca a hub of Ecuador tourism. Comfortable hostels, inexpensive but nice hotels and homestays permit a warm yet independent life style while studying in Cuenca. We can help you locate places to stay.

Our Spanish and English classes are either in group or private and customizable one-to-one formats.

The curriculum for our Spanish classes is desined to be fun and for the whole family. The combination of a vacation/study in our Spanish school is set up to be actually an "educational vacation". Enroll in Abraham Lincoln, one of Ecuador 's oldest Spanish schools, and enjoy the colonial flavor of Ecuador and our one-to-one Spanish classes. You will be assigned your own private Spanish teacher. Our school is located in a renovated antique building with two computer language labs, sitting gardens, gathering place, library and cantina (snacks and soft drinks). Our patio offers ample space for get togethers and parties or just to enjoy the light Andean breezes and sunshine while conversing with new found friends.

Our language lab is computerized and to keep in touch with home, we have an Internet cafe for you also. Your trip to Ecuador enriched with our Spanish classes can benefit you with the most modern technology and software available.

Our Internet cafe is the best and oldest in the Cuenca area. It is best because of the new high speed computers, an incredible learning center in our own intranet, as well as a fast internet connection in a secure, quiet non-smoking environment.

Our Spanish school augments your vacation in Ecuador. In Cuenca, Ecuador, hub of education for the region, there are other Spanish schools and Spanish classes but none in Ecuador can offer our language lab, Internet access and facility. We are easy to find and within short walking distance of Cuenca's famed old town and central park/cathedral. Visit magical Ecuador and our Spanish school this summer! Here in Ecuador, it doesn't get any better.

Thank you for visiting!
