ACCOMMODATION

All students participating in our program are placed in carefully screened Spanish homes, usually in pairs. Living in a Spanish home is one of the most  important aspects of the students’ intercultural experience because it helps to improve language skills and increase cultural awareness, two key goals of the program.
