At the end of three weeks of intensive Spanish in Quetzaltenango, Guatemala, school administrators will be able to have a better cultural and social understanding of the parents of ELL students from Latin America and the typical educational expectations of Latin American schools.
Learning a second language in the United States can be difficult with the heavy workload that most school personnel carry. With a total immersion approach, this learning process can be accelerated as well as enlightening as you experience the Spanish culture firsthand.
What you will learn in our Spanish programs is what you a student usually learns in two semesters at any university in the USA or Canada.
