The philosophy of your school
It is very advisable to consider the philosophical or thematic foci of the Spanish schools, along with your interests, as an important consideration in choosing a school. This tip, I believe, ranks as the most important of all. People learn languages the best when they can explores topics that interest them. For instance, when I visited Guatemala a few years back, my interests revolved around the politics and history of the country, and I was specifically interested in the union movement there and the years of militant resistance against the dictatorial regimes. The school where I studied, Juan Sisay, organized an educational delegation to a union meeting in town and a in-house talk by leaders of the leftist resistance. There are many schools in Xela that have social justice themes, which interest me the most, but there are other themes as well that might be up your alley. Find your school's website, read the background history, and follow your heart's desire!
