学生评价
“The biggest challenge you will encounter is to immerse yourself in the Spanish language without falling back on English when you don’t know how to express your ideas.”
María Negroni, Assistant Professor, Sarah Lawrence College
Interested in practicing Spanish with other people. You will learn Spanish much faster if you attend Spanish-language activities like poetry readings and converse with fellow students and people whose first language is Spanish.
Many colleges recommend or require that you spend at least a semester studying in a Spanish-speaking country of your choice.*(8)
