INESLE Madrid Insti tute of Spanish Summer @ INESLE Madrid Summer @ INESLE www.inesle.com ’’Tuve un tiempo increible con INESLE Madrid.

INESLE Madrid was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. Over the span of a month, I was able to fully immerse in Spanish culture- whether it was cooking paella in the classroom or exploring Burgos with my host family. We went on fun excursions after school, such as the Camino de Santiago and visiting Toledo. In addition, my fluency in Spanish greatly improved during the trip, and I am excited to continue practicing at my high school. All of the teachers and Spanish students were encouraging and helped me become more proficient with my pronunciation and grammar. Most importantly, I met an incredible group of Americans and Spaniards that welcomed me with open arms. From day one, my host family took me in and treated me like a son. We went to many family celebrations and trips together. Furthermore, the students in the program were, funny enthusiastic, and kind. I will never forget the love, laughter, and memories that we all shared together during this incredible month. I certainly hope to return to Spain and the program in the future.’’

Students collected by Students collected by Students collected by host families host families host families ’’INESLE Madrid was an experience that l will remember for the rest of my life. My host family was better than l could have hoped for and in only a month they became family to me. Before INESLE, l was barely conversational in Spanish. Now, l am confident in speaking, understanding, reading and writing. The cultural excursions that l was taken on were as important to me as the time spent in the classroom. l learned a lot about Spanish culture, which made me appreciate Spain even more. Through INESLE, l was able to leam about language, culture and friendship. The experience was nothing short of amazing. l only have fond memories of my stay in Spain, and hope to be able to return soon!”.

’’Not only has being in this program improved my Spanish so much, but I got to learn and Know Spanish culture: ist people, food, and customs. Everyone was so friendly and I made international friends! I had a lot of laughs and smiles, and definitely lots of learning opportunities. I can´t express how beneficial living in Spain was as an opportunity to improve my Spanish. Much love to INESLE! ’’

Carolyn Han Newport High School - Bellevue, WA

’’I cannot say enough about the experience my daugther had through INESLE Madrid 2018. She made new friends from across the US, Spain and France. She was inmmersed in the Spanish language and culture through classes, school trips and her loving host family. She became more confident in her conversational Spanish while she experienced the life and culture of Spain. The program was positive and rewarding.’’

Participant´s Mother Andover High School - Andover, MA

’’The directors and the monitors genuinely got to know every student the cared after and checked in on us and were so kind. A big shout out as well to the monitors who accompanied. They each worked so hard to get to know us all as individuals and in classes meet us where at in our Spanish. I can’t believe how much work everyone put into making our experience an unforgettable one.’’ THANK YOU
