My grammer professor taught us very well. He did some amazing work with the subjunctive form, but more incrediblely, he ended up teaching us all the swear words possible by the simple use of them in nearly every sentence. I enjoyed the Spanish day in and day out, and vastly improved.

There were a lot of Italian students, which was good because with them I spoke Spanish. With Germans I usually spoke English. There were many Southamericans too. I also had some spanish friends.

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

I had the chance to get to know a lot of nice students during my stay. These relations helped a lot to learn the basic vocabulary and to prevent mistakes.

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...
