Mexico's educational landscape is undergoing a
remarkable transformation, driven by
diversification of offerings, research and
innovation, international collaborations, and a commitment
to sustainable development. As Mexico's institutions
continue to evolve, they are not only shaping the future of
the nation but also contributing to the global pool of
knowledge and innovation. Through the embrace of change
and the pursuit of excellence, Mexico is solidifying its role
on the international stage of education.
Escuela Preparatoria Central de Ciudad Juáre (EPCCJ)
is at the forefront of the changing reality of the country
EPCCJ began its activities in 2002, at the initiative of a
group of people with social recognition and extensive
background in the field of education, grouped in an
association called ‘Escuela Preparatoria Central de Ciudad
Juárez, A.C.,’ with the purpose of providing an education of
excellence to young middle school graduates with high
academic performance and who, due to their limited
resources, could not afford it.
That was not an easy task since it was necessary to find
spaces, teachers with a high level of preparation, economic
resources, and students who met the profile to achieve the
objectives and vision. The initial plan was to provide
scholarships to every student who came with the expectation
of having a space where they could develop their academic
skills, participate, and excel in the different school areas, and
EPCCJ has fully complied with this objective.
Ensuring Academic Excellence
The EPCCJ consistently has achieved high academic
performance, positioning itself among the best high schools
according to national and international assessments and
competitions. As an example, the PISA (Programme for
International Student Assessment) exams, led by the OECD,
and PLANEA (National Plan for the Evaluation of
Learning), led by the SEP(Secretary of Public Education).
EPCCJ has been ranked first in the state and among the top 4
in the country. However, due to the growth of the project, a
great demand for applicants from all socioeconomic levels
has taken an interest in joining this institution. It has now
reached the current maximum capacity of students.

process are a key factor that contributes towards the success
of EPCCJ. EPCC provides scholarships to students facing
financial vulnerability, yet who demonstrate exceptional
academic performance, thus ensuring access to outstanding
educational opportunities for all.
Fostering Academic and Integral Development
The strong and visionary leadership that leads with example
establishes clear goals and fosters a positive school. The
administrative team of EPCCJ supports and provides
resources that allow the institution's activities to be carried
out in a timely and safe environment.
EPCCJ gives special attention to academic and integral
development. The profile of students enrolling in it is
focused on their development, looking for improvement,
and academic challenges. The EPCCJ has been free of
situations that plague many of the local schools: drugs,
gangs, or bullying. It bases its actions on strong values. It
promotes a respectful classroom culture, constructive
feedback, and student autonomy.
Creating an Atmosphere of Inquisitive Participation
Students participate in activities where they feel a healthy
competition with their peers and strive to learn more. They
also feel encouraged by critical thinking, creativity, and the
environment. There is a constant atmosphere of inquisitive
participation and the pursuit of learning, and a safe physical
and emotional environment. After periods of intense work,
students are guided in physical activity, which allows them
to reduce their stress.
EPCCJ focuses not only on academics. In the first semester,
classes in sports, art, theater, reading, chess, dance, etc., are
offered free of charge, where they can distract themselves,
relax, and practice any activity outside of academics that
catches their attention. In addition, inter-semester
conferences are given to all students on emotional
intelligence, economic development, or topics of current
interest.
An Inclusive School
The EPCCJ has a collaborative alliance with the State
Human Rights Commission that trains all its staff. This
prepares EPCCJ to be an inclusive school, free of violence
and discrimination, with values and respect for human
dignity. The EPCCJ also has a program coordinated by the
state government (CAPA) to promote the mental health of
students and detect the risk of addictions, assessing and
monitoring regularly the students being able to address any
concern in a timely manner.
Workshops are constantly given to students to improve their
socio-emotional well-being and decision-making. Likewise,
within the regular classes, students have a qualified
counsellor that orientates and addresses social and
emotional challenges, where they can express their doubts
and concerns throughout their high school journey.
EPCCJ has a technological platform where parents are
informed about any relevant information. However, it also
has open and regular communication channels to ensure
that the entire community has access to such information
(email, phone calls, meetings).
Meetings are held at the beginning of the semester in which
its coexistence agreement is clearly communicated so that
the entire EPCCJ community is informed of the rights,
responsibilities, and obligations of the EPCCJ, students,
teachers, and parents or guardians.
In particular situations, personalized communication is held
to address specific issues. They are always following the
established communication protocols to ensure respect,
order, and safety.
The EPCCJ, throughout its history, has consistently
received academic excellence recognition every year.

semester; first places were obtained in the region and state
in History of Mexico, Mathematics III and IV,
Entrepreneurial Project, Chemistry I and II, fine Arts and
Drawing, Literary Composition, Declamation, Oratory,
Theatre, Individual Singing, and Instrumental Performance.

Analysis

The Glorious History
The past incidents contribute to the
present situations. So, it's advisable to
dig into the past to understand the
present. The complex Mexican history
contributes a lot to its educational
structure. The Aztecs and Maya, with
their advanced knowledge and
hieroglyphic scripts, had their systems
of education. When the Spanish
conquistadores arrived, they introduced
European-style education, primarily
aimed at spreading Christianity. This
marked the beginning of a significant
cultural exchange.
Language and Literature in
Curriculum
The official language of instruction in
Mexican schools is the prominent
legacy of colonization, i.e., the warm
and celebrated Spanish language.
However, the country is fiercely proud
of its First Nations languages, which
are still spoken by millions. Bilingual
education programs attempt to meld
the contrast, recognizing the
importance of preserving indigenous
cultures.
Mexican education emphasizes
traditional values such as family,
community, and religion. These values
are often integrated into the
curriculum, promoting a sense of
identity and belonging among students.
For instance, the celebration of Dia de
los Muertos (Day of the Dead) is a
cultural lesson as much as it is a
religious one.
Celebrating Differences
Mexico stands as a nation of
remarkable diversity, flaunting a rug
woven with a multitude of indigenous
groups, each with its distinct cultural
heritage. Within the educational
sphere, a sincere commitment to
inclusivity prevails. Bilingual and
intercultural education initiatives have
Despite financial constraints, Mexican
educators are determined to enhance
the quality of education. Through
innovative solutions and creative
approaches, they are finding ways to
maximize the impact of available
resources, ensuring that students across
the nation have access to a high-quality
education.
In rural areas, where educational
access has historically been limited,
progress is being made. Initiatives to
improve infrastructure and expand
educational opportunities are bridging
the gap between urban and rural
communities. These efforts aim to
provide every child in Mexico with an
equal chance to thrive academically.
The challenges faced by the Mexican
education system are catalysts for
positive transformation. They inspire
dedicated educators, passionate
students, and forward-thinking
policymakers to collaborate toward a
brighter future for Mexico's youth. As
Mexico continues this educational
journey, it does so with optimism,
determination, and a commitment to
providing every child with the tools
they need to flourish and contribute to
the nation's ongoing success.
Conclusion
The system of education completely
revolves around its culture and
tradition. It reflects the nation's
complex history, linguistic diversity,
and commitment to preserving its
heritage. While challenges exist,
Mexico continues to strive for an
education system that respects its roots
while preparing students for the future.
Understanding the influence of culture
and tradition on Mexican education is
not just an academic exercise but a
profound exploration of the nation's
soul.
taken root with the primary objective
of catering to the distinctive needs of
indigenous students, all while paying
utmost respect to their inherent cultural
backgrounds.
These programs represent a crucial
bridge between tradition and
modernity. They serve as a provision to
Mexico's dedication to preserving its
rich cultural diversities. By nurturing
and promoting these efforts, the nation
ensures that the invaluable traditions
passed down through generations
continue to thrive and flourish.
Moreover, these initiatives also
embody the spirit of equitable access to
quality education. They empower
students to cherish and celebrate their
cultural identities while simultaneously
equipping them with the tools needed
to succeed in an ever-evolving world.
It's a harmonious blend of heritage
preservation and progressive education
designed for Mexico's profound
commitment to its people and their
diverse cultural legacies.
Challenges Due to Diversity
The Mexican education system,
enriched by its vibrant cultural
heritage, is on a path of continuous
improvement and growth. While it
faces its share of challenges, these
hurdles serve as opportunities for
positive change and progress.
One of the notable aspects of Mexican
education is its resilience in the face of
high dropout rates. Efforts are
underway to provide additional support
and resources to ensure that more
young minds can complete their
educational journey successfully. This
commitment to keeping students
engaged and motivated is a testament
to Mexico's dedication to nurturing its
future generations.

Language is the key that opens doors to new
cultures, experiences, and connections. It is not just
about words; it's about forging connections. When
you speak someone’s language, you're saying more than
just words—you’re saying, "I respect your culture, your
heritage, and your identity." This kind of effort goes a long
way toward building meaningful relationships, whether in
personal or professional spheres.
In our increasingly globalized world, the ability to
communicate in different languages is a valuable skill. It
opens doors to international collaborations, job
opportunities, and friendships that transcend borders.
For over 30 years, the Spanish Institute of Puebla has
been turning that key, providing a transformative language
immersion program for students, professionals, and seniors
from across the globe. Nestled in the heart of Mexico, this
institute offers more than just language lessons; it offers a
gateway to understanding, communication, and the rich
patterns of Spanish-speaking cultures.
Under the proficient leadership of Director Antonio Prado,
it has been revolutionizing lives and bridging linguistic
divides since its establishment in 1984. Originally
established in 1984, the institute embarked on a remarkable
journey, and after 24 years in its original location, it
discovered its ideal abode within a former convent tucked
away in the historic nucleus of Puebla. Merely four blocks
away from the central plaza, this new setting not only adds

a touch of historical magnificence but also situates students
at the core of one of Mexico's most captivating dependent
cities.
What distinguishes the Spanish Institute of Puebla is its
comprehensive approach to language education. While
mornings are devoted to intensive group classes, afternoons
come alive with 2 hours of individual conversational
sessions. This ingenious amalgamation permits students to
promptly apply their newfound language skills as they
venture through the enchanting streets of Puebla.
It is no surprise that the institute's distinctive teaching
methodology has garnered accolades in esteemed
publications such as National Geographic Traveler’s
Magazine. Beyond conventional language acquisition, it
offers an immersive encounter wherein students not only
grasp the intricacies of Spanish but also cultivate a
profound admiration for Mexican culture.
Tailored Learning and Immersive Language Experience
The Spanish Institute of Puebla takes great care in ensuring
that its students are placed at the appropriate level to
maximize their learning experience. In the event that there
is only one student at a particular level, the institute will
open that level and provide individual instruction at a group
rate. Additionally, all students are required to sign an
agreement committing to speaking Spanish as much as
possible during their time at the institute, greatly benefiting
their fluency in the language.
Creating a Vibrant Learning Environment
Creating a positive learning environment for students is of
utmost importance. Antonia emphasized their approach to
fostering excitement not only for the language but also for
the culture of Mexico. In addition, they organize various
extracurricular activities to provide students with
opportunities to interact with native Mexicans and
exchange cultural and linguistic experiences.

Balancing Learning Progress
The Spanish Institute of Puebla understands the delicate
balance between frustration and comfort when it comes to
learning a language. Therefore, they take great care in
guiding each student's progress in their program. If a
student reaches a point of excessive frustration, the institute
reduces the pressure of language learning to ensure their
well-being. It is known that overwhelming frustration can
hinder language development, causing the student to
stagnate. To prevent this, the institute provides
comprehensive support both inside and outside the
classroom. This includes assistance from host families and
continuous contact with the institute's staff.
Empowering Diplomats to Excel
The institute offers Spanish language training to diplomats
who are required to attain C1 level proficiency in order to
work in Spanish-speaking countries in America. Many of
these diplomats have struggled to pass the earlier levels of
Spanish proficiency, but after participating in their program,
they have expressed great satisfaction in achieving a high
score and passing the C1 exam with ease. It is truly
gratifying to witness these diplomats confidently
conducting interviews in Spanish on television and radio.
Highly Qualified Teachers
Antonio emphasizes the importance of having highly
qualified teachers who consistently enhance their teaching
methods. He states that all their teachers possess college
degrees in teaching Spanish as a Second Language or
Spanish Linguistics. Additionally, they undergo a rigorous
three-month training program that combines both
theoretical knowledge and practical application to meet the
organization’s expectations. Antonio also mentions that
some of their teachers hold advanced degrees such as
master's or even doctorate degrees.
Effective Communication with Parents and Guardians
The Spanish Institute of Puebla primarily enrolls adult
students who are 18 years of age and older. These
individuals have a genuine dedication to mastering the
Spanish language, which allows them to independently
manage their educational journey without the involvement
of parents or guardians. Their institute prioritizes consistent
and effective communication with students as they advance
in their Spanish studies.
We know that learning a language is
a fine line between frustra on and
comfort so we are very careful in the
advancement of each student during
their stay in our program so if it gets
to a point they are ge ng too
frustrated, we back down in the
pressure of language learning.
“

18 | October 2023
Embracing Diversity
The Spanish Institute of Puebla welcomes students from
more than 60 countries, each with diverse cultural,
religious, and social backgrounds. This creates an
environment where students engage in open dialogue,
embracing and utilizing their unique cultural, religious,
and social backgrounds to foster meaningful connections
among them.
Promoting Mexican Culture Globally
The Celebration of Mexico at the Library of Congress in
the United States in 2019 was a significant event, made
possible by the Spanish Institute of Puebla. Through this
event, the institute successfully shared the rich Mexican
culture with US representatives and senators.
Moreover, the institute has become a sought-after
educational institution for ambassadors from non-
Spanish-speaking countries. Many ambassadors have
chosen to study at the Spanish Institute of Puebla, and it is
truly gratifying to witness their growing fondness for
Spanish culture. As these ambassadors represent their
respective countries in Spanish-speaking nations across
America, the institute plays a crucial role in fostering
cultural exchange and understanding.
Serving the Hispanic Community
Antonio says Spanish has emerged as an indispensable
language for effectively serving the expanding Hispanic
community in the United States. Consequently, the
gratifying task of equipping professionals from diverse
backgrounds with the necessary skills to cater to this
thriving community in the United States and globally has
always been paramount.
Embracing Technological Advancements
The Spanish Institute of Puebla constantly seeks out
cutting-edge technologies to enhance language learning
for its students. With a firm belief in preparing learners
for a globalized world, the institute is committed to
bringing the latest developments from the Spanish-
speaking world into the classroom, keeping students
actively engaged.

Spanish literature boasts a rich history
filled with masterpieces by renowned
authors. Here are some classic Spanish
novels that not only offer an enthralling
literary experience but also serve as
exceptional tools for language

Often considered the first modern
European novel, "Don Quixote" is a

Laura Esquivel has created a literary

pages, a traditional Mexican family
employs the art of cooking and the
enchanting mysticism woven into their
lives as a means of breaking free from
the confines of their mundane
existence. They grapple with the
societal expectations and rigid gender
roles imposed upon them, ultimately
using their culinary creations to
express their emotions and chase after
their aspirations.
Interestingly, she initially released this
novel in serialized form, with a
different recipe accompanying each
chapter. This unique approach allows
readers to not only immerse
themselves in a captivating story but
also learn how to prepare delicious
Mexican cuisine along the way. "Como

for intermediate Spanish learners, and
its popularity even led to a successful
film adaptation in 1992.
