"My classes in Merida at the ECORA Language Institute were always enjoyable. Susana and Jose were friendly but businesslike. I appreciated their patience and kindness. They made the trips to the city and museums so much more meaningful for me because my Spanish was so limited. They are wonderful teachers and great ambassadors for Merida and Mexico."

"My instructor, don Jose, could not have been more attentive. His enthusiasm, warmth and sense of humor made every class fun and enjoyable.
I especially loved walking around the city with him on cultural excursions to the museum and cathedral and seeing Merida through his eyes, the city he was born and raised in. After one week I had more confidence in my ability to speak Spanish, and considerably improved my comprehension.
I'm looking forward to returning in the future."

"Don Jose is a very patient, kind and helpful teacher! If you've studied a second language before, you'll know how important that is! I arrived at Ecora with a mix of Spanish that includes beginner mistakes and some rather advanced usage, and a lack of patience for "books." He remains undaunted, determined to improve my Spanish. Although Don Jose would come to my home in Merida for my lessons, I chose to go to their location which has a lovely air conditioned office/classroom for one-on-one lessons as well as classrooms."

" I had him as a private tutor last january 2007 when I stayed at the Dolores del Alba hotel in Merida. He was always ontime and prepared for classes.
We had a lot of fun. He always made me and my wife Annita laugh during the classes and excursions we did to Dzibilchaltun and Xcanatun Hacienda. Keep having fun. "
