High School Study Abroad Programs

Before immersing myself into the TOCA study abroad program I had no prior experience studying abroad. It was incredible. Studying abroad with TOCA has allowed me to meet new people, experience a new culture and GROW. TOCA's immersion program is exactly how it sounds, immersive. I spent my days in Seville, Spain with a personal homestay family and classes to go to courtesy of Centro MundoLengua. My experience living with a homestay family was different, but awesome as they are the most welcoming, kind, and supportive people you can meet. My family spoke only Spanish so obviously there were some awkward moments, but thats where the magic happens. Day by day you are able to increase and expand your vocabulary in this foreign, yet welcoming place. This is only enhanced by through the entertaining tour guides. My main tour guide Paula was so welcoming and happy to show us around the many attractions and activities in Spain. These attractions were truly breathtaking and to this day I still remember the joy and awe I felt while experiencing them the first time. All of this is topped off with the wonderful teachings of Centro MundoLengua's Juan Alberto. Learning a new language can be daunting and even difficult at times, but learning through Centro MundoLengua and having Jaun Alberto as my teacher made learning Spanish fun, interactive, and easy to digest. Overall I rate TOCA a 10/10 and if you're thinking about studying abroad they are an amazing pick.

Not only did I have an amazing time in Spain with TOCA, it shaped me as the person I am today. I made long lasting friends and memories I’ll never forget and I couldn’t have done it without TOCA and their incredible staff. I am forever grateful to this program.
