What students are saying

I learned Spanish in the best way possible: speaking it. The activities were also fun and got us up and going rather than sitting down and listening to a lecture.

I took as much advantage of it as I could. My Spanish has improved immensely and getting to know a new culture was really fun.

I felt the program really made me learn more about the culture...I had such a great time there, and made so many new friends. The school helped me become more confident in my Spanish-speaking abilities, and the host family experience really was life-changing…
