students get a break in their studies to experience this ecological
wonderland.

The AEC Spanish Institute nursing program consists of:
• 4 hours per
day of morning Standard Spanish classes.
Each student will be separated into one of nine levels
of Spanish classes aimed at their current individual level
of Spanish fluency.
• 3 hours per
week of afternoon class of weekly blocks of related subject
matter (one hour for
three days) , geared toward learning medical terminology
and culturally appropriate communication skills designed
to be specifically applicable for nurses in dealing with
Spanish speaking patients and their families.
• Weekending
“charlas” (medical seminars) with
combined classes of medical and nursing Spanish students
and our staff to discuss that week's block of subject
material, allowing individual questions from students
who wish to clarify or expand on that week's classroom
content.
• Visitations,
accompanied by staff preceptor, for 3 hrs/week
to one or two of the following
sites:
• Either of the general practice clinics at La Fortuna
or Monterey
• Either of the general hospitals at Ciudad Quesada
