Summerfuel in Cadiz Academics

The academic portion of the program is considered integral to the total learning experience and is an essential part of Spanish in España. The major objective of the language instruction is to expand your vocabulary and idiomatic expressions. Conversations with your homestay family will stretch your abilities, exchanges with new friends will boost your confidence and formal classroom instruction will reinforce all that you are learning. Our teaching staff is a team of experienced and dynamic Spanish instructors who are experts in the language, culture and life of Spain.

Classes are mandatory and are held each morning from 10:00 am to 1:30 pm except Wednesdays, which are reserved for excursions. Classes are divided into two one and a half- hour periods during which students will advance their knowledge of Spanish by using oral, reading and writing skills. One period is devoted to grammar and vocabulary, emphasizing survival tools for daily living in Spain; the second period focuses on cultural themes and communicative skills to facilitate integration into Spanish life. Two or three levels of Spanish will be offered at each site, depending upon the size of the group: intermediate, upper intermediate and advanced. Placement will be determined by a diagnostic test given on the first day of class in Spain. A Summerfuel transcript will be issued at the end of the program.

Morning Courses

    An intensive Spanish language course, taught at three levels: Intermediate (Intermedio), Upper Intermediate (Intermedio Alto), and Advanced (Avanzado). The class integrates classroom lecture, audio materials, workbook exercises and a variety of texts to develop fluency in all aspects of the Spanish language. Classroom time is divided into intensive language practice (oral and written) and general grammar review with an emphasis on "real life" situations. Every day students will complete two pages of their Spanish diary, and the course culminates in a final oral presentation in Spanish.
