YES Summer in Spain: Group Study is an intensive Spanish language and culture immersion program designed for optimized learning. Students study Language, Culture, History and other topics in Spanish and attend a supplemental discussion forum to facilitate the collective absorption and comprehension of their new international experiences. Participants live with local Spanish host families in order to maximize exposure to and participation in the Spanish language and daily life. Classroom hours are complimented by field excursions to various Andalusian sites, giving participants real-life insight to local history and culture.
