★★★★★ 5/5

This school is truly something special. The teachers are incredible they take the time to understand your way of learning and adapt to it, making every class feel personal and effective. The smaller class sizes create a sense of connection, and the workshops and group activities are not just fun but also help you grow as a student and a person

I really enjoyed my time OLSA. I had a number of different teachers over a five week period, and they were all very good. Your fellow students there will also be interesting and motivated people the school itself is kind of a center of activity where there’s also a very good café and where they organize activities. If you are coming to Medellín I would highly recommend studying Spanish at OLSA
