The student we talked to was extremely down-to-earth and actually helped us significantly...I was impressed with the organization of the program as well as the maturity and helpfulness of the students. I would recommend it in the future to all your language courses." "I was surprised how easy answering some of the questions was because I did not realize how much Spanish I have actually learned through the Spanish class that I have had. The person who I had a conversation with did a great job helping to explain something to me if I did not fully understand a question by using Spanish words that I did know. I really enjoyed the conversation and I believe that it helped me learn." - Student Testimonials
