Program Reviews:
Danielle Sue Peterson, Summer 2016 Participant
It seemed like I hit a plateau regarding my Spanish skills about two weeks into the program - although the classes were very interesting and engaging, in terms of grammar, I felt that I had hit a wall. This feeling didn't really change until about the fifth week when I suddenly noticed how much more confident I was speaking to my host mom, teachers and other native speakers that I met. Therefore I would say that the persistence of speaking and trying to learn Spanish really paid off in the end and felt the most rewarding to me.

Julia Alisandra Schwartz, Summer 2014 Participant
Seeing a real difference in my Spanish knowledge and understanding is one of the most rewarding things of the program.

Joseph W Kovack, Summer 2018 Participant
The best method of improving all aspects of Spanish skills (grammar, conversation, reading, writing) is to be immersed fully into a Spanish speaking culture. No class in the US will match the experience of studying abroad.
