Learned a lot from the Spanish lessons!

Tico Lingo Teen Spanish Summer Camp was an extremely fun program that I would definitely recommend to others. The first day I came to this camp I was extremely nervous to be traveling by myself and unsure about what the camp would be like. The locals are extremely nice, and I loved my homestay family! I feel that during my homestay I was able to practice and hear the most amount of Spanish. Damaris and Carlos were always extremely helpful, patient, and communicative. There was always a conversation happening, lending me the ability to gain exposure to the language. Also, the food was so good! My homestay made common breakfasts and dinners of the country and are extremely kind and welcoming, and they make great food! My overall favorite activity was white water rafting. We got to do some cliff jumping and the Tico Lingo group worked together as a team so that we didn’t flip the boat over. Another activity I enjoyed was visiting the supermarket where we got the opportunity to try and buy a variety of different foods. There were also daily Spanish classes, which I really enjoyed. My teacher Freddy was funny and always encouraging his students to learn. Overall, I had a lot of fun at this camp.
