I learned a lot on my literature class as well as about the country. Mane E - University of North Texas View Entire Review
It was definitely worthwhile. I learned that in oder to learn the culture within the time I was there it would require I completely open myself up and leave all my American ways out on the US and Immigration entrance. You gain so much from this way of looking at life in Mexico. In addition, most working class people seemed to li... Dillan Garcia - University of California - Riverside View Entire Review

I learned how they live in Oaxaca, Mexico. I learned how different their culture is. It was definititely worthwhile! Rhyan A Malachowski - The University of Texas at Austin View Entire Review
I learned a little bit of everything. Language. Culture. What I can do to better my own life. And much more. This experience was intense, but fun, insightful, amazing, and unbelievable. Words really can't describe how much I learned, but it definitely changed many of my previous attitudes towards life. Omair M Ali - Benedictine University View Entire Review
Language and cultural understanding. Jonah Golden - Quest University Canada / Outbound View Entire Review
I believe this is exactly where I was meant to be. I gained the language skills I was looking for, learned a lot about myself, and am ending this program feeling confident not only in Spanish but in my personal life. Traveling abroad is always a good idea, and combining it with my education was a wonderful experience I wouldn't ... A student - University of Louisville View Entire Review
I gained friends, improvement on grammar and speaking skills. It was worth it! A student - Texas A&M University - College Station View Entire Review
Oaxaca is unlike any other place I have ever visited and it changed the way that I look at my own life in the United States. Mexico is the perfect place to learn Spanish and Oaxaca offers many opportunities to learn in-depth about social and political issues. I could not recommend this program more. Kendall Hitch - University of Kentucky View Entire Review
I learned a lot of Spanish, and I also became more confident with my ability to have a conversation with someone who only speaks Spanish. It was definitely worthwhile. A student - Headwaters School View Entire Review
I learned some vocabulary words I didn't know. I also learned how to eat healthier and take care of myself in general. Valeria Santillan Lopez - San Diego State University View Entire Review
Yes, absolutely worthwhile--definitely improved my Spanish A student View Entire Review
This experience allowed me to take on a new level of independence, and test my ability to communicate in a second language. I feel that it was incredibly worthwhile, and I would've liked to have spent even more time there, had it been possible. Jaden Hill - Grier School View Entire Review
I learned about the vibrant culture of Mexico and the history of Mexican art and architecture. It was nice to cover a lot of different areas in Spanish. A student - Los Gatos High School View Entire Review
Be aware of your surroundings Sierra C King - University of Kentucky View Entire Review
My son really liked the program. He was surprised it was curtailed. Jennie Feiger - High School View Entire Review
I learned to relax and to take breaks every now and then. Lourdes Sarmiento Martinez - University of California - San Diego / UCSD View Entire Review
I learned how to fluently communicate in the language, Spanish. I learned about the customs and traditions in modern day Mexico and in the past. I learned about indigenous cultures in Oaxaca and their celebrations. I learned how to play cumbia on the ukulele. It was absolutely worthwhile. A student - Metropolitan State University of Denver View Entire Review
My experience abroad was extremely worthwhile. At first by choice and then by coincidence I made lots of local and international Spanish-speaking friends. These friends not only are now extremely important people in my life, but taught me SO MUCH about their respective cultures and immensely aided my improvement in speaking Span... Esther Verkouw - Millersville University of Pennsylvania View Entire Review
I feel like the Oaxacan culture made me more patient as a person. The way of life there is much slower compared to Texas. People aren't I met people very different from myself and got to understand some of the challenges they face every day. A student - University of Houston View Entire Review
My Spanish definitely improved in the three short weeks I lived in Oaxaca. I learned about the history (ancient and modern) of Mexico, as well as got real life opportunities to practice my speaking skills. Alison Daisey - University of Maryland - Baltimore County / UMBC View Entire Review
I always try to think of what I can bring to an occasion or to another country. I would suggest focusing on a nice personal gift for your host family, and something personal that you can share with your teacher or the school. I have thought about it everyday since I have been back. Being back, I am grateful, and I have been pr... Thomas Pardue - Texas State University-San Marcos View Entire Review
