Program Overview

Guaranteed immersion into life, culture, and language in Spain! Spend 2 to 6 weeks of your summer in Almeria with a volunteer host family.

We will choose a family most suited to you and your interests and with a teen of a similar age. You will speak only Spanish from start to finish and be wholly integrated into the local way of life and culture.

This is the best way to improve your Spanish!

Almeria, the region's (of the same name) capital, is known for its beautiful beaches, unique landscape, and historic attractions. Our families are carefully chosen and are all volunteers, eager to host and forge a connection with international students.

This is a highly flexible program. You can choose the dates and length of your stay and enhance your experience by taking one-on-one Spanish classes, playing sports, or participating in local activities.

Your host family coordinator is on call 24/7, regularly checking in with you throughout the program.

It really improved my Spanish

I got into this program as I was struggling with Spanish in my school. My parents thought that it would be best to send me abroad, as they have also gone through similar experiences and have improved a lot from them. And after two weeks of taking part of the program, I can positively say that I have improved a lot. The family was really friendly, and I had a lot of incredible experiences there. And after I returned, I found my Spanish to have improved. I really recommend this program as it not only helped my Spanish, but I now have many adventures to talk about.
