"Very good, at least en el tiempo libre"

Sara Kutti, student from South Africa

I really liked my host family, very kind and she served good food and was helpful. My class the first week was terrible because all the young boys took all studytime to disturb. And our teacher was not so good, she was very much confused and didn’t explain the assignments so we could understand(it’s not only my opinion). We had two other teachers on the last lesson everyday and they were really good, kind and understanding. The second week we got new students to my class and then we at least had fun, but didn’t learn so much Spanish because of the first teacher. The activities were fun, well organized and good to get to know new people. Good that we went to visit different places. Overall it was a very nice experience but I learned more Spanish outside school than in the classroom.
