Born and raised in the vibrant cultural tapestry of Ecuador, Alex Flores made his journey to Canada a decade ago, bringing with him the warmth of his homeland and a profound passion for sharing the richness of his heritage. Enthralled by the art of cultural exchange, Alex dedicated himself to imparting his mother tongue and the essence of Latin dances, fostering connections that transcended geographical boundaries.

In 2017, inspired by his commitment to cultural education, Alex founded Open Spanish. Anchored in the belief that language learning is a journey into the heart of a culture, the online familial business became a bridge connecting two continents. Collaborating closely with his brother in Quito, they set out to share not just a language but a way of life, opening doors for individuals eager to embrace new languages, customs, and perspectives.

Over the span of six years, Open Spanish flourished, becoming a beacon for language enthusiasts worldwide. From North America to Europe, students immersed themselves in the vibrant rhythms of the Spanish language and the spirited traditions of Ecuador. The familial bond that shaped the foundation of Open Spanish echoed in the laughter of students and the stories of cultural exchange that unfolded within its virtual walls.

Delving deeper into the roots of Ecuador, Open Spanish became more than an educational platform—it transformed into a cultural ambassador, celebrating the diversity and authenticity of South America. The curriculum not only taught language but wove a tapestry of stories, connecting students with the soulful melodies of Ecuadorian music, the flavors of traditional cuisine, and the colorful festivities that define the nation.

In 2023, nestled in the multicultural heart of Montreal, Canada, Alex felt the pulse of a city that thrived on diversity and embraced the world's languages. Fueling his wanderlust and a desire to broaden cultural horizons, Alex envisioned an expansion of his beloved project. The demand for linguistic diversity met the serendipity of encountering new teachers from across the globe, and Open Spanish evolved into Open Lingua Canada.

As the school expanded its services, the ethos of Open Lingua Canada remained rooted in the spirit of multiethnicity. In a world marked by globalization, the school became a nexus where cultures converged, fostering connections beyond language barriers. Beyond Spanish, Open Lingua Canada embraced English, French, and German, heralding the beginning of a new chapter in the journey of cultural exploration.

As the school looks ahead, the vision is to continue weaving a tapestry of languages, transcending borders, and fostering an environment where diversity is celebrated. Open Lingua Canada is not just a language school; it is a testament to the belief that in understanding each other's languages, we embrace the shared humanity that unites us all. The journey continues, with eyes set on the ever-expanding horizons of linguistic and cultural discovery.
