Getting better at Spanish in Alcala de Henares, Spain

Wednesday, May 22, 2024

How did you decide which country/program to study abroad in?

I preferred a summer program where I would be able to improve my Spanish skills and finish my Spanish minor.

What were you excited about and/or nervous about before your program?

I was excited to meet other Spanish students and be immersed in the culture.

What was your favorite place that you traveled to or an activity you did while abroad?

I enjoyed the trip we took to Segovia.

Could you articulate one personal/professional/academic goal you achieved while abroad?

I highly improved my Spanish speaking and feel much more comfortable now using the language.

What advice would you like to give to future study abroad students?

College is such a perfect time to travel, and studying abroad is the perfect opportunity to explore the world while getting credits for it.

What do you wish you knew before you studied abroad?

I wish I knew more about how/what to pack since I had never traveled overseas before.
