Spanish Language and Culture Programme + Way of St James 2026

Buenas tardes:

Soy Ramón Clavijo, director de Academia Iria Flavia, una escuela de español acreditada por el Instituto Cervantes que funciona desde 1994, en Santiago de Compostela.

Me dirijo a usted para presentarle una propuesta académica y experiencial pensada específicamente para grupos de estudiantes universitarios de Estados Unidos interesados en perfeccionar su español y profundizar en la cultura hispana en un contexto único: Santiago de Compostela y el Camino de Santiago.

📍Santiago, Patrimonio de la Humanidad y destino histórico de peregrinación, ofrece un espacio único para el aprendizaje lingüístico, el diálogo intercultural y el crecimiento personal de los jóvenes.

Nuestro programa combina:

Una semana de ruta guiada y comentada a través de El Camino de Santiago +

Dos o tres semanas de curso de "Lengua y cultura españolas" en nuestras aulas de Santiago de Compostela.


📍A su llegada a Santiago, los alumnos continúan su inmersión con un curso intensivo de lengua y cultura en nuestras aulas. Las clases se complementan con talleres y actividades culturales (visita guiada por el casco histórico, taller de cocina, baile latino, visitas a diferentes museos, etc.), de modo que el aprendizaje no se limita al aula, sino que se extiende a la vida diaria de la ciudad.

📍Este entorno académico y social es especialmente adecuado para estudiantes de programas de Spanish, Hispanic Studies, International Studies o similares.

Puede descargar la información en los siguientes enlaces:

Y si quiere enriquecer o modificar el programa de actividades durante la estancia en la ciudad, puede descargar estos documentos con todas las posibilidades:

Por favor, no dude en contactar conmigo si desea un presupuesto a medida o le surge cualquier duda. Estaría encantado de organizar una reunión online en la que responder a sus preguntas.

Reciba un cordial saludo,

Ramón Clavijo

Director de Academia Iria Flavia
