AZ Santo Domingo
was founded in 1996. In just a short time AZ Santo Domingo

heart of the charming Colonial District of Santo Domingo.

colonial building perfectly suited for language instruction

Domingo.

students quality Spanish language immersion programs.
Students have the choice of taking small group instruction
for 4-6 hours per day or taking private lessons. If
you are looking for something really special, why not
try the "Tourism and Culture" course. Under
this option, you are free to travel throughout the island

you have a personal guide to show you the sites on the
island while also working on your Spanish!

local host family, or sharing an apartment with other
students. |
