Spanish Lessons at Instituto Cervantes

I'm still thinking whether I would study Spanish the same time I'm studying Mandarin. As much as I'm determined to learn at least some functional Chinese, it would take me until next year to do that and it would take me too long to make some headway with my Spanish if I start it after Chinese. Oh well, as I try to decide, I'll post here the schedule of classes at Instituto for the first part of 2007.

Instituto Cervantes

(This is near the police station and Casino Espanol. It is behind Masagana Supermarket and not in that portion of T.M. Kalaw near the National Library. Coming from Roxas Boulevard, you have to cross Taft Avenue to get to that part of T.M. Kalaw Street.)
