Summer High School Language Immersion Programs in Spain

This was my daughter’s first time away from all of her friends and she definitely struggled with being homesick. Her host family and the Seville Abroad team coaxed her out of her shell and encouraged her to try new things and she came away from the experience with confidence in her ability to speak Spanish and to try new things. She talks frequently about wanting to go back to Spain and plans to return to Seville this spring to visit a friend she made there. She came back feeling more prepared to take on any new adventure. I was constantly amazed at the many places they traveled and how expertly planned the whole experience was. Pepa treats these students like they are her own family and the staff at Seville Abroad were all so kind and helpful to my daughter. They communicated daily with parents. I can not recommend this program highly enough.

My experience with the CIEE Spanish Language and Culture Program in Palma de Mallorca was overwhelmingly positive and truly transformative. Living with a welcoming host family allowed me to experience authentic Spanish culture, try new foods, and practice my language skills daily. Taking university-level Spanish classes deepened my understanding of the language while immersing me in an academic environment abroad. Beyond the classroom, cultural activities and excursions helped me connect with the island’s history and people, creating lifelong friendships and unforgettable memories. This program not only strengthened my Spanish but also gave me a new sense of independence and appreciation for global perspectives.
