Academia Latina
Academia Latina offers professional private Spanish classes in Colombia. Our first school is opened in Taganga, a little fishing village near Santa Marta.
Learning a new language abroad will be an unforgettable experience.
What makes us unique?
Our language school is unique, because a percentage of your tuition will be donated to charity. We work together with foundation Más. This foundation helps the underprivileged children of Taganga and Santa Marta.
Colombia
Colombia is located at the centre of our planet, at the
north-east of the South American Cone, on the
equatorial line. Colombia has a population of
approximately 45 million habitants, which makes it the 4th largest country in South America with the second largest population.
It shares borders with five nations: Venezuela, Brazil,
Ecuador, Peru and Panama.
The capital is Bogotá D.C. (2.600 m). Colombia is the only South American country with coastlines on both the North Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea. 25% percent of the Colombian population is living below the poverty line.
Three mighty North-South Andean mountain ranges
separate the western coastal lowlands from the almost empty eastern jungles, with 54 percent of Colombia´s land but only 3 percent of the people.
Most Colombians are of mixed ethnicity; about 20 percent claim European descent. Native Indians, about one percent of the population, live in the eastern jungles.
Colombia is home to 5 different nature-zones,
including the Atlantic Coast, the Pacific Coast, the Orinoquía, the Amazon and the Andean region.
It is a country with beautiful nature and many
different cultures and customs.
