Kent is where Karina did her master's and where the immersions were born. Saint Mary returns there: English for foreigners, Spanish for the British.
The Kent location is bidirectional: it teaches English to foreign students and, at the same time, Spanish to British students. It's the first school in the group to reverse the flow.
Argentines, Spaniards, Italians, Brazilians. Any Spanish speaker or non-English-speaking European who wants to live English in its original context. It's the natural extension of the immersions we've been doing since 2012.
British people who want to learn Spanish for travel, business, family heritage or pure cultural curiosity. We apply the Saint Mary method in reverse: total immersion in Spanish from day one, living Hispanic-American culture, without translating.
The Kent project rests on two colleges with which Saint Mary has a long-standing relationship. Both have been receiving students from the institute for decades.
Saint Mary is official representative of Hilderstone for Argentina since April 2026. In Kent we work together for Spanish-as-a-second-language programs and immersion coordination.
Where Karina did her first M.A. and where every Saint Mary immersion has taken place since 2012. A fundamental part of the Kent project: accommodation, shared infrastructure and co-teaching.
Trips to Kent twice a year, full programme at partner college, accommodation with a British host family.
