January Language and Culture Program, Newsletter, Winter 2017

Greetings from Sevilla!

The CIEE Language and Culture January Program has come to a close!  Students completed their final exams last week and the majority flew home this past Friday.

In hardly 3 weeks our LCJ students learned and developed dreams and projects for which they had been working hard and a long time ago. Their anecdotes and stories will go with them for the rest of their lives.

CULTURAL VISITS

Among their experiences: cultural visits, the Cathedral and Alcázar of Seville, a daytrip to Córdoba where they discovered the Mezquita, an overnight trip to Granada, its worldwide patrimony of the Alhambra, its cathedral and Capilla Real. They also attended a cooking class! And enjoyed of other local activities that helped them to grow personally.

FULL EXPERIENCE

The program was also filled with academic successes, gained cultural and gastronomic knowledge, as well as skills and life-changing experiences.  At the end of the program we asked students to reflect upon and check the gained skills as a result of their study abroad experience in the Seville LCJ program. All agreed that they jumped into their Spanish adventure and digging into its people and traditions contributed to their international education beating expectations.

Meanwhile, we hope more students can have the opportunity to participate in our January program and experience Seville. It´s our pleasure to host you.

We are waiting for you!
