I found it difficult at first as I had only been learning Spanish for about a year and a half. When I arrived I was totally lost but by my third week, I had gained alot of confidence(and spanish friends) so my Spanish improved really quickly

It was very hard as my language skills were limited. However I was living with Spanish students and taking Spanish classes at the host university, a combination of these factors has increased the level of my Spanish immensely.

It was quiet difficult in the beginning to tell the people what I wanted to do or say, because most of the spanish people do not speak any other languages but spanish. but within time I learned and it all worked out to be fine.

Spanish people in general don´t speak english, so you have to learn Spanish. The people are really friendly, so it´s easy to be in communicate with them. Bad thing is we only had a Spanish course of 20 hours in my university.

I was lucky enough to meet some great people along the way (who happened to live down the street from my host family). Like I said before, you can learn as much or as little as you want in this program.
