ECUADOR, positioned exactly at the middle of the World, a land full of contrasts. Our country offers students an incredible diversity and wondrous landscapes. Ecuador is also a multi-cultural country, many ethnic communities are part of Ecuador’s cultural heritage.

Otavalo, Ecuador´s cultural capital, two hours north of Quito, is a peaceful and safe town and has pleasant spring-like climate at 2556m. above sea level. It is located in a valley between the two extinct volcanoes Imbabura and Cotacachi . It is famous for its local Indian market at the “Plaza de Poncho”.

The people are very kind and the students can learn more about the customs and lifestyle of its people. The Indian culture makes Otavalo one of the most interesting cities in Ecuador.

Students will find the perfect place to study in a pleasant atmosphere with broad opportunities to go mountain climbing, hiking and camping.

The School is located in the north of the city a few meters from the Plaza de Poncho. Our school is held in a modern spacious building, with library and a common room for breaks, also a patio to enjoy the sunny weather of Otavalo.
