Spanish Immersion, Amigos and Sunshine

I arrived on Iguana Abroad with a basic level of Spanish after doing a language program in Chile last year. Even though I spent a month on my previous immersion program I never felt very confident speaking to native speakers when I was there, especially because the accent in Chile is quite hard and people tend to speak quite quickly. When I was looking for programs in Latin America this was really my main aim - to start speaking confidently with native speakers and feel comfortable speaking the language in different situations. For this reason I am so glad I chose Iguana Abroad! The Iguana Abroad program really helps you improve your Spanish quickly and feel comfortable speaking the language because you are speaking it every day with different people and once you arrive you really start to feel immersed in Mexican life. The lessons were all with native speakers and there were also a lot of immersion activities and weekend trips which made the program really varied and interesting. I found the weekend trips to be particularly useful because as well as being sociable they were also a great way to meet new people from around Mexico which helps you get used to understanding different Spanish accents. Overall a perfect program and a great experience!
