About

Spend your summer learning advanced Spanish in Quito, Ecuador, where old meets new and where cultures come together. Explore the historic city center, designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site, while also walking past the headquarters of many national and international organizations and institutions. Learn to understand the many influences in the region, from colonialism to indigenous knowledge. Deepen your Spanish language abilities by taking courses in Spanish, taught by local instructors. Engage with the Spanish language outside of the classroom by living with local homestay families in Quito. Courses will focus on Latin American and Spanish culture and literature, as well as indigenous knowledge as it relates to the environment. These courses will be based in Quito, and will involve excursions around Quito as well as other parts of Ecuador to engage with and learn from local communities.
