About Us

Our teaching philosophy is based on the old motto “enseñar deleitando” (“to teach and delight”). We want each student to acquire a theoretical knowledge in the classroom as well as knowledge based on experience in the real world. That is why we promote personal contact with professors, intellectuals, writers and artists, in addition to other students from Salamanca.

We started our pedagogical mission and our labor as ELE teaching center in the year 2000 and we are Accredited by the Instituto Cervantes since 2006. This means Letra Hispánica meets all the requirements posed by the SACIC, which is the only institution entitled to qualify and certify the centers focused on the teaching of Spanish as a foreign language.

The Instituto Cervantes every three years required for the extension of accreditation for quality Letra Hispánica as an accredited inspection center.

In addition, we also provide them with the possibility of contracting optional services such as lodging, out-of-academy activities, guided tours, and more, in order to liven up the linguistic immersion experience and make the stay unforgettable.
