Spanish, one of the most spoken language across the world, the second just behind the Mandarin Chinese.
Over 6% of the population speak it and more than 60 million speak it as a second language. Spanish speakers find it easier to learn other languages like Italian, French, and Portuguese, because of the Latin roots.
One of the best options to learn Spanish is to study with native people, even better if you can study in a country that speaks Spanish as a first language!

Tequila is one of the most popular liquors around the world. Here are some interesting facts about it you probably didn’t know:

-Must of the tequila work is done by hand. Agave is hand is harvested by hand.
Mariachi is a type of music that dates back to the 18th century. The band can consist from 7 to more than 20 band members. Their clothing is very distinctive and they wear big hats. It’s the most representative musical gender from Mexico. Experience the local language by learning Spanish with our cursos de español.
