An experience like no other

I went to Quito for a medical learning experience through Child Family Health International. Included in the program were Spanish classes at the Academia. I was a beginner-level speaker, and was placed one-on-one with a teacher who helped me become much more confident in my Spanish by the end of the program. I was able to better communicate with staff at the Academia as well as my host family because of these well crafted, individualized courses. Not to mention, the people here are the warmest and friendliest I’ve ever met, as they helped me through an unexpected hospitalization at the beginning of my trip. You really can’t go wrong with this program because of the astounding quality of the people who run it. I highly recommend to anyone who wants to learn Spanish, as the immersive experience leaves you with a better grasp on the language than you could ever expect to receive from other programs.
