Flor de Pochote has made an alliance with the Ave Nicaragüita Spanish School from Granada to be able to offer more practical Spanish classes that can connect the words and the grammar with situations of real life.

Our concept includes:

  • Practices in the field with a local team leader
  • Texts to introduce each theme, with glossary list.
  • Individual training, in a precious environment
  • Excursions, inside and around the farm.

The basic package consists in a week of training in the Ave Nicaragüita School in Granada, and a week in the countryside, in Flor de Pochote.
Especially to the beginners, we recommend to initiate the study in Granada, so that you have a base for taking advantage of the practices in the farm.

55 hours of personal training
