Spanish lessons in Cartagena July/August 2004?

Hi. I am planning to spend 3 weeks or so in Cartagena this July/August and would like to take beginner Spanish classes if possible. (I know a bit of Portuguese, which seems to help with reading, but not speaking Spanish.) Can anyone recommend a good school or tutor? If possible I would prefer to be based in the old town. Many thanks.

web site for you http://www.cartagenainfo.com/english/
Carolyn, go to this site for alot of information on Cartagena.
Look for Spanish lessons and it will take to a site with prices and some letters from people that took classes.
This site has more info than any other I have seen so it is a great place to start. Good Luck.
Hey, I have an idea. I can give you the telephone number of a 12 year old boy from Cartagena who wants to practice english with good speakers and you can practice your spanish with him. You could meet at a park in the Old City and practice during your stay. I personally know his whole family and I am trying to help him improve his conversatioal skills.
Write a note here if you are interested.
Have fun in Cartagena.
