Student Quotes

"I couldn't have asked for a more professional, friendly staff of people working to make sure I was having a comfortable, educational experience while abroad. The teachers were equally impressive, all native Spaniards who were energetic and excited about teaching."
—Seth Lieberman

Past Summers

"I would recommend living with a family to any student who wants to be around people who ONLY speak Spanish."

"The family was very attentive to my needs or concerns. They were funny and helped me adjust to Madrid."

"The food was excellent. Always varied and good quality. Always fresh fruit and salads or great gazpacho. I have not eaten this well consistently in a while, if ever!"

"Raquel, my profesora, was excellent. I really felt as if she wanted all of us to learn. The whole class always participated in the activities. I think most people really enjoyed them!"
—Megan Fallman

"My teacher and the administration were amazing and I greatly appreciated and enjoyed their exuberance, involvement and personalities."
—Stephen Iskrant

"After completing the program, I feel I can understand Spanish well and I am much more confident about traveling and living away from home."

"I really enjoyed both classes that I took and my professors were excellent. The group trips were relevant to the content of the class and were very interesting. I loved going to the Prado every week and all the other museums. I have really enjoyed taking classes here and would highly recommend this program to my friends."

"The mixing of studying and immersion in culture in Spain has been wonderful. A very multi-faceted and rich program."
