La Herradura offers Spanish classes in two locations in Uruguay: Montevideo and Punta del Este. Our method combines structured lessons with practical, real-life practice, so students learn Spanish actively while experiencing the culture. Montevideo: Our school is in the Tres Cruces neighborhood, within walking distance of the main bus terminal and Avenida 18 de Julio. This central location makes it easy to get around, shop, and explore the city while practicing Spanish daily. Punta del Este: Located near Playa Mansa, the school provides a quieter, coastal setting. It’s a relaxed environment for learning while enjoying the beach and local culture. We offer courses from beginner (A1) to advanced (C2), in both group and individual formats. Classes are adapted to each student’s pace and needs to help them improve their language skills effectively. Beyond classes, we encourage students to join cultural and social activities that provide opportunities to practice Spanish and experience Uruguay more fully.
