What is missing in
high school Spanish!
For high school Spanish
students nothing can compare to the dynamics of youth
interaction, it's the missing link that will ignite their true
Spanish potential. The power of youth engagement has a direct
impact on Spanish fluency, it creates a warm, non-judgmental,
relaxed and fun environment to fully absorb language naturally.
Real meaningful engagement, not forced - makes all the
difference in Spanish acquisition!
Our safety net!
We provide a full safety
net that makes our exchange unique to Latin America, the
Director is a member of Rotary International, her own high
school daughter is an exchange student. Parents familiar with
our exchange know that we supervise all aspects of the
experience. No third party tour operators, or in-experienced
college students. Our international staff and close knit host
families
work together to provide
the appropriate support and supervision that high school
students require!
Friendly Staff
Support!
Our high staff to student ratio (1:3) means individual support and
interaction for visiting students. Because we run only one high
school program, parents know that the program director is
involved in all day to day student activities. We take great
pride in being Latin America's most community oriented high
school exchange program. To learn more about our summer program
we strongly encourage prospective students
and parents to use our past
participants, parents and teacher contacts. We always welcome your
questions, and please take the opportunity to request our free program DVD.
