Colombia continues to be an excellent destination for those who want to study Spanish. Therefore, year after year, the country receives people from all over the world looking to improve their skills or learn the language.
Spanish is a language that is becoming «popular» in addition to being the fourth most studied and spoken language in the world; foreigners are attracted to study in Colombia because of the culture, ease of learning, natural environment, landscapes, and quality of life.
Firstly, according to Portafolio, Colombia entered the top 25 best educational centers for online higher education in the Spanish-speaking world. Furthermore, a study carried out among 200 institutions in Spain, the United States, México, Guatemala, Puerto Rico, Panamá, Perú, Argentina, and Colombia rated as an ideal destination to learn Spanish.
Such is the success and growth rate of international students studying Spanish in Colombia that institutions such as Elefun, our partner, have the opportunity to continue growing. Elefun is a ‘paisa’ institution that mixes the academic and cultural as a means of learning so that its students have a complete immersion.
Elefun’s first school in Laureles opened its doors in 2017, and a second Elefun school now welcomes students in Manila Poblado. On the other hand, from expatgroup.co, we have achieved hundreds of student visas so their students can legally stay in the country.
We attended the inauguration of its new headquarters in Manila.
Elefun not only offers Spanish classes, but you can also find cultural immersion, language exchange, and, as its name says, lots of fun. But first, let’s listen to Nathaly, the general coordinator, who tells us a little more:
“People often ask why I chose the name «Elefun» for the school. I have a great affinity with elephants – they are very wise and intelligent, know how to play and have fun, and importantly, have a strong sense of community – everything I want to represent in our schools.»
Why Elefun?
