What former students have said about this program:

"The program was superb. I was lucky to have an excellent teacher and family for the homestay."
-Edward Friedman, University Professor

"My routine in Lisbon consisted of 3 hours of language class in the morning. In the afternoon, I would take the bus to Costa Da Capiricia and lie out on the beach. In the evening, I'd return home to do my homework, take a nap and then get ready for some of the most fun, interesting and least expensive nightlife, I've ever experienced. I kept thinking "How can life be so good?". Portugal is a warm and friendly society."
- Todd Mitchell, Graduate Student
