Rising 10-12 Grades: Centro Mundolengua Language Immersion homestay in Seville, Spain - June 3-17, 2023.
The two-week, immersion-based home-stay experience is an exceptional opportunity for those students who are driven to fertilize their language-learning abilities and enhance their proficiency in Spanish. This academic-based travel experience is one that will bring students up close and personal with not only the Spanish language, but also the products, practices and perspectives of those from the Andalucía region of Spain.
