Language ClassesThis unique trip not only offers participants with the opportunity to experience a new culture and an exciting destination, but it also provides Spanish classes to enable effective daily communication in a Spanish-speaking country. Participants will engage in guided Spanish classes in the mornings in which they will learn conversational Spanish before departing for their daily trips. After the classes, what is learned in class can be immediately put into practice during daily excursions and interactions, making the process of learning a new language not only applicable to their ability to communicate as they go throughout their day, but also effectively increasing retention through continued practice in real life situations!
