Playa del Carmen
Are you curious to know what a day in the life at an animal shelter is like? At a local animal shelter, you will collaborate in different activities such as cleaning the crates, feeding the animals, and taking them out for their daily walk. If you wish, you can also play with the dogs in the designated courtyard. You do not need any prior knowledge, you just need to like animals and be willing to help!
Personalize your program with accommodations and extra services
This course is for students of all levels who want to participate in class as much as possible to speed up their progress. They want to have a say in what topics are covered in class so they can focus on their passions and professional interests, learning vocabulary and language skills that will be useful to them outside the classroom.
With this course you will have 20 weekly Spanish classes, 5 cultural and conversation workshops, and daily coffee breaks with your teacher: everything you need to learn the language, gain insight into the culture, and feel comfortable conversing in Spanish.
The combination of different learning environments in this course ensure your success. Every day you'll dedicate time to absorbing new information, asking questions, and interacting in a variety of social situations until conversing in Spanish starts to feel natural.
Your professor will advise you from beginning to end, analyzing your goals and creating a personalized program. Whether you are looking to better your presentation skills, gain a specialized lexicon, or improve your conversation skills in different settings, this program provides you with the time and content flexibility to do so.
