Summer 2012 Participant
When learning a new language, it's important to TRY!! You don't always have to be right, and it's OK to ask questions. That really helped facilitate the development of my language skills.

Marie-Isabel Lemke, Summer 2019 Participant
My favorite part of my study abroad experience was my fellow students and teachers. The students I studied abroad with helped me grow in my Spanish abilities, allowed me to adjust quickly, and always made me feel comfortable and not stressed. The same goes for my teachers. Indira was a light to all of her students and always made sure none of us were struggling.

Use the month before going on this trip to practice your grammar because that part of the course is very intensive and moves extremely fast. In fact, if possible take a review class online or meet with a tutor to make sure you have the basics down. Be realistic with your budget so that given the opportunity you can hop a quick flight to another region of Spain and get another look at the cultural differences. Going out is great but try to check out the local places instead of the tourist hangouts. Explore!! Put yourself in situations that force the use of the language.
