The best way to learn Spanish in San Pedro la Laguna! We offer a unique setting with a wonderful view of Lake Atitlan and a real family atmosphere. Founded in 2001, Orbita's mission is to help people express themselves in Spanish while providing local teachers with employment. In addition, through our support of the "Somos" Project, we hope to contribute to the integration and social development of disabled people while providing them with the skills required to lead an independent life.
