HOUSING

Personal assessment
Cost
KEY:
Couldn't have asked for more.
Pretty good.

Location
Cleanliness
Space
Type of housing: With a family
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? It would be nice to share an apartment with a group of students and experience real independent life in Mexico. The family program was amazing and I was very spoiled by my "house-mom", however, I'd like to experience everyday living in Mexico this time.
Personal comments:
Everything was top notch. I've never stayed in such a nice house. My house family treated me like one of their own.

I come from a university with a mandatory integrated lap-top learning style, so it would have been nice to make more use of technology in classes.

Language of instruction: Spanish
Was learning Spanish a key decision factor?
Yes, I wanted to improve my Spanish
How much did you improve your Spanish?

My level after: No problems in any areas (including slang)
Personal comments:
Mexican people speak slowly, so it's easy to understand and to learn. at the university, mexican and international students are always together and we learn very quickly the 'local language'
