With more than 25 years of experience, and over 40 partners worldwide, Instituto Intercultural del Caribe (IIC) is one of the most renowned language schools for learning Spanish in the Dominican Republic. IIC’s Spanish courses are accredited by Seton Hill University (Pennsylvania, US) for university credits and in Germany by 8 German states for the so-called Bildungsurlaub, the educational leave for professionals.
Our school is situated on the north coast of the Dominican Republic in the small beach town of Sosua, famous for its nature sites, incredible beaches and water sports activities. Sosua is located between the Victorian-style built city of Puerto Plata and surfer’s paradise Cabarete, THE place to be for surf fans.
