Academia Tica is proud to be one of the first Spanish schools in Costa Rica and for sure on of the longest standing in the industry, since 1986.
We’re Costa-Rican owned and run business with finesse for quality. This has been recognized with an Instituto Cervantes Accredited Center certification, the most important qualification for schools that teach Spanish as a foreign language.
Academia Tica is an official DELE Exam Center.
Our first school, Academia Tica Coronado, was founded in 1986. Coronado is a semirural town close to the city and also from great touristic spots, great to plan all your trips around Costa Rica. It’s more relaxing here, which is perfect for studying. It’s also safer here than in the very center of San José.
Buses to all regions of the country start in San José, which makes it very easy to go on weekend trips. But you can enjoy the rainforest and live many adventures just minutes away from our campus. The town is set at the foot of the Braulio Carrillo National Park. Coronado is also a good place to live a true Costa Rican cultural experience.
