Personal comments
I have acquired a better vocabulary and confidence in my French abilities during my stay here. Sometimes it is difficult; I'll have to admit. And, sometimes you feel dumb and embarrassed and want to give up. But, you deal with it and move on and grow. It's an experience I wouldn't change for the world!

The similarities between Spanish and French makes you to find very easy to learn it. At the beginning I learnt a lot of new vocabulary, however from th third month on, it was just improving the pronunciation, uttering was more and more real and fluent.

Personal comments
I expected to be completely immersed in French and to have to speak it all the time, but that was not the case. Classes consist entirely of listening and do not require active communication. Local students are reserved and difficult to get to know, often very hesitant to converse with foreign students.
