I always cringe when I hear of a kid going to school for a degree in a foreign language IF they’re doing it simply to “learn the language.” Sure…some fields are going to require a degree but if learning the language is the objective why not try something like this?
Instead of spending thousands of dollars on a university program, this family offers a unique opportunity for teens to learn Spanish while spending a month in a cozy town in Ecuador. I’ve been chatting back and forth via email with the mom, Chelsea and am so impressed with the amount of research and time that has gone into the program they have developed.
This is a fine example of real world education!
