 Learn Spanish in Mexico! There are several good reasons to
choose Mexico for Spanish language / culture training.
SPANISH AS IT
SHOULD BE SPOKEN AND PRONOUNCED
The difference in pronunciation and
vocabulary between the Spanish language in Spain and Mexico is very
small, especially if you compare it to the Spanish spoken in the
Caribbean and South America.
This, plus the
fact Mexico is the biggest Spanish speaking country in the world,
makes "Mexican" Spanish the most used Spanish in international
business, culture, and art. In Spain, movies are often dubbed in
Mexican Spanish. And we don’t even need to tell you that Mexican
Spanish is the most spoken Spanish in the U.S.A.!
1st CLASS FACILITIES AND
INFRASTRUCTURE
Although some
regions in Mexico (particularly the southeast) are
underdeveloped, the cities (including Cuernavaca) offer
all the facilities and creature comforts you would find
in any other industrialized country.
More than
7000 kms. of recently built highways and 10 national
airlines (4 of them flying to Europe, Canada and the U.S.)
connect all cites and tourist locations.
Mexico is one
of the few countries in Latin America with first class
doctors and medical facilities. Good to know in case of
emergency. As a matter a fact, thousands of US citizens
fly yearly to Mexico for Medical care, as it is of
similar quality as in the US, yet up to 80% cheaper. A
travel insurance policy is a good idea. With it, the
visitor can be assured of first class medical assistance,
if needed.
PRIVILEGED SITUTION ON
THE WORLD MAP
Mexico is the closest
Spanish speaking country to the United States and Canada and one of the
few Latin American countries with direct and daily flights to and from
the major European cities. Mexico is as close to Asia and Australia as
Spain and well connected by direct flights from major Asian cities with
Japan Airlines.
NO INTERNATIONAL TERRORISM
The
possibilities of terrorist attacks on Mexico are close to
nonexistent. Mexico's low profile foreign policy insures
that the country has no enemies to fear, nor do others
fear Mexico.
SOCIAL - POLITICAL STABILITY OF
MEXICO
Since the
past presidential elections in 2000, Mexico is
internationally recognized as a democratic country. Clean
elections chose a candidate form the opposition as
president for the first time in 71 years. All political
forces are represented in congress, guaranteeing a
political stability unimaginable in most other Latin
American countries.
NO ARMED OPPOSITION GROUPS OR
TERRORIST ORGANIZATIONS IN THE COUNTRY
Mexico is not
affected by internal armed opposition which involves
random killing and injury of people, such as the ETA (Spain)
or the FARC (Colombia)… Mexico has no
armed opposition since the peace agreement with the only
existing guerrilla organization, the EZLN (the Zapatistas)
located in Chiapas state, 1200 miles to the south. With
the exception of a few days early on, the Zapatistas have
confined their battle to the internet. Since the Mexican
legislature approved the 'Ley Indigina' (the "Native
Peoples Act"), guaranteeing full civil rights for
the indigenous population in Mexico, the EZLN has become,
more and more, a political organization.
