It’s starting to feel a lot more ’springish’ around Córdoba already! It was raining earlier this week, but now all the skies are clear and sun is shining brightly. Around the school we’ve got a lot of things going on.
We have a wonderful group of 34 students studying with us right now from Newcastle. They have a range of activites planned in addition to their classes. Today they will be visiting the Castillo de Almodóvar. This week they have already learned to dance Sevillanas, met some Spanish friends, walked through the Judería, visited the Mezquita (Córdoba’s Great Mosque) and learned about Córdoba’s history at the Archeological museum. Tomorrow is their last day with us and we will be having a party. ¡Hasta Pronto!
When studying a foreign language it is highly beneficial to practise what you have learned in situ. Students that travel and study Spanish with us in Córdoba learn quickly to communicate. One thing that we do with each group of students is to arrange an exchange with local Spanish peers, so that they have a chance to chat naturally. This is usually one of the most memorable parts of their stay!
