Mi opinión es que, como en todas partes, hay profesores obsoletos. Sin embargo, la mayoría son buenos y sus conocimientos están actualizados.

Before my time in Spain i had only studied Spanish for 2 years at university. In Santander i really had to work hard because noone there really speaks much English but this paid off really well as my language improved a great deal! making foreign friends at university helped a lot as we all spoke Spanish all the time

Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
It was cost effective while at the same time a good opportunity to interact with spainish citizens... Living with a host family Isn´t the only option to live with native speakers.

it's been a wonderful experience, 'cause you're completely immerged in the language; teachers were wonderful and ready to help you in every situation. The mian problem was that we were 17 Italian students all togheter..we could have spoken much more Spanish if the organization had been different...

I would recommend that you know at least a few basic Spanish phrases before coming here as you cannot expect people to know English.
