Comments from former students:
“This was my first experience to travel overseas. I loved Spain and had a wonderful host family. Thanks to your services, I was able to learn more conversational Spanish and enjoy a 2 week vacation at the same time. I believe this was the best trip I could have taken. Thanks!” -Steven Birnstiel, Police Officer
“The best experience of my life; it was everything I could have asked for and more, I didn’t want to come back to the United States!” -Dorothy Johnson, Service Representative
“I never expected to learn so much in only 5 weeks! The teachers were young and enthusiastic – and fun! – it seems we laughed as much as we learned. Staying in a Spanish home completed the flavor of the experience and made me feel like more than a visitor. I thought I might be intimidated when the teachers spoke only Spanish, but they made everything understandable and interesting. I can’t wait to go back!” -Marty Munson, Editor
