Exceptional program

LITA offers an exceptional program that I wholeheartedly recommend for students seeking an authentic travel experience and an immersive Spanish language adventure. My daughter spent three weeks with LITA in southern Spain and, as a parent, I was impressed by the program’s organization and attention to detail. The group leaders accompanying my daughter were outstanding, providing excellent communication both before and during the trip.

The travel experiences were perfectly suited to her age group and included unique activities that we wouldn’t typically explore as a family, such as hiking to hidden swimming pools and learning to cook tapas. One of the program’s key features is its commitment to conducting all activities in Spanish—whether with peers, home-stay families, or locals. While this was a challenging aspect, it proved to be incredibly rewarding.

My daughter formed a close bond with her home-stay family, who took exceptional care of her, showing her around the beach and historic city nearby. The program also included regular group activities with other LITA students and their home-stay families, fostering a strong sense of community. A particularly memorable moment was experiencing the local excitement of Spain’s soccer victory in the European championships.

LITA excels in selecting the right students and matching them with suitable home-stay families, creating a meaningful and immersive experience. My daughter returned with enhanced Spanish skills, increased independence, and greater confidence in social situations. Participating in LITA was a transformative experience for her, and I highly recommend it for any student looking to grow both personally and linguistically.
