What our students say

Cherry Byas

This was an absolutely amazing trip.

It was my first time travelling alone and I felt it was perfect because of how organised Ingrid has made it. My group was so lovely. Everything on the trip went smoothly as we moved from place to place. It is such a great idea because you have the opportunity to learn so much spanish (which I did), but also travel to several different places. The teachers are all great in every location. I loved my trip and would 100% do it again.

Carie Thompson

I had such a wonderful experience during the traveling classroom.

Ingrid made all the arrangements, making it easy for us to focus and enjoy ourselves. With all of the included activities we were kept very busy. The other students were so kind, charming and fun to be around. The teachers were great. And Ingrid’s hostels were nice. What a great program! I highly recommend it.

Linda Rasch

We had a great trip with the travelling classroom!

Everything was so well organised, we really loved the places we have been and Ingrid Lommers was the best guide and Spanish teacher. Also the other teachers were good and relaxed. The classes outside in Boquete were the best. The hostels were different but all good. We are very enthousiastic about this combination of travelling and learning. Thanks to all!
