Meet Laura and Alice


Laura is my Spanish Professora. We meet up with her 2 or 3 times a week and study for an hour or two.

Sometimes we stop by her house and see whats going on. They also come over and eat dinner once in a while.

During those meetings and dinners we got to know Lauras family. She has two daughters, Alice 1 (shes the baby in the picture) and Marexa 10. She also has a nanny Maria (a 15 year old girl who takes care of the kids when Laura is teaching).

Laura is from Tela on the mainland originally but has lived in La Ceiba and now Roatan for the past few years. She works for central american spanish schools http://www.ca-spanish.com/ .

It is interesting learning spanish from Laura because she does not speak any english to speak of. So your forced to speak spanish the whole time which makes you learn faster but can be frustrating.

When you come down to visit if you want to spend a few hours brushing up or learning the basic it costs $10 an hour but its a lot of fun.
