A very happy student
This month we sent Gary Quinn, a journalist from The Irish Times to Centro Internacional de Español MELKART in Cádiz, Spain to learn Spanish and Surfing. He told us that he had a wonderful time, and that both his Spanish teacher and his surfing teacher Lima were excellent.
Gary wrote a great article about the expercience in the travel section of The Irish Times that anyone thinking about learning a language should read. You can read the full article here, and here’s a short extract.
“Building a holiday around a language school has a lot of benefits: you can go alone and know that you’ll meet new friends; you get to learn about the city and country that you’re in from the people who live there; and you forsake lounging by the pool for thinking like a local – and, without realising it, have built a siesta into your day and forgotten you ever needed a map to get around.
In short, you become immersed in a culture rather than simply looking at it through a camera lens, and you come away not only proud of yourself for learning a new language but also deeply attached to the place you have been in. Of course, choosing the right school and location matters, and this is where a good organiser such as Eurolanguages.com comes in.”
