Student Reviews

How do students like their Spanish classes at IIC? Read more about their experiences here in the Student Reviews:

“My favorite place with my favorite people. All the professors are amazing. I learned so much in a short amount of time. The best part was meeting people from all over the world and making life long friends. We all enjoyed the group activities including museums, local historical sites, trying traditional cuisine, and of course the night life! I would highly recommend to anyone looking for an adventure and to learn a lot along the way. My program was 3 weeks and I went from having basic knowledge to being able to translate and speak with more fluently and confidently.”

I was at IIC for 9 weeks and it was great! I’ve learned a lot and met so many amazing people. The school in Sosua organizes a lot of activities after the lessons, which was a great way to learn more about the Dominican Republic and to just have a lot of fun! Gracias a todos!✨

“I’m just saying wow… what a school! What a bunch of nice people! The teachers are really there for you 24/7 and do everything to help you. Everyone does! It was a week ago that I finished my course and I am already sitting here and planning for another course in Spanish at this fantastic school.”

— Patrik from Sweden

“Very well organized language school. I really enjoyed both my educational leave “Bildungsurlaub” two years ago and the private lessons I took online during the lockdown. The teachers were super friendly and taught you a lot. The language classes were in small groups (three people in the morning, two in the afternoon) which made learning even more effective!”

— Marilena Dangl from Germany

“Wonderful experience! My teachers were fantastic, and everyone was so friendly. I came here unable to speak well or understand what people were saying in Spanish even though I had studied many years in college. I was able to converse in Spanish after one day of instruction!”

— Norma from the US

“I really can recommend IIC school in Sosua. The teachers are all highly motivated and have an excellent knowledge. Additionally, they teach with so much joy. It was always a pleasure to attend all lectures. The external program, which one could attend, was always very well organized and gave a first insight into the culture. 5 Stars from me!”

— Raphaela from Switzerland

“The online classes are really a great way to work on my Spanish language skills before and after my classes on site. I am very grateful for everything my teacher taught me and I am looking forward to see her again in Santo Domingo and continue my classes live at school! Everybody from the School’s Office was a great support in arranging and planning the classes. Thanks to you all!”

— Annemiek from the Netherlands
