Spanish for Travel: If you have time on your side, you can attend our enjoyable term classes prior to departure to Latin America or Spain; otherwise our Spanish courses for travellers are especially designed to satisfy your needs. Tres Culturas Spanish teaches relevant and specially designed Spanish courses to people who need Spanish language skills for touring the great archeological sites of Guatemala, Peru and Mexico or travelling to learn tango in Buenos Aires, to walk down the palatial avenues of Madrid or to marvel at the natural wonders of the Galapagos Islands. We've been there and teach the necessary Spanish you need to enjoy your stay there. If you're planning travelling on a short notice, we can arrange private or group Spanish classes to suit your needs. We encourage travel companies in Melbourne preparing guided tours to Latin America or Spain to contact us if they wish to organize a crash Spanish course for their customers. Large discounts are available for touring groups of ten or more students. At Tres Culturas Spanish we have Spanish courses for Travel starting every month or available on demand. Our term courses are now also specially designed to prepare you for travel in a more thorough manner than what you would get by doing a short travel course.

Option 1:

5 Hour Course - One hour per week or two Saturday lessons of 2.5 hours each.

Survival Spanish: Provides you with a taste of the language and culture of the Spanish speaking countries to help you get by during your trip. It involves knowledge of superficial language structures needed to convey meaning to native Spanish speakers.

Option 2:

10 Hour Course - Two/one hours per week over five or ten weeks. (It can also be programmed to suit students needs)
