Amazing program for high school students who want to deepen their Spanish and have a deeply meaningful program. LITA is run by top notch educators who take tons of care to make sure students are matched with excellent host families and internships (or classes). All the the thoughtful groundwork helped the students bond with one another, and really understand Spanish culture. Truly a gem and the intentionality and framework make each day so special, and this is truly a standout program. So thankful we found it!
We love LITA! We saw such an improvement in our 15 yo's Spanish language skills; it was amazing how 5 weeks of full immersion really pulled together his understanding of the language in a way that 4 years of classes hadn't been able to do yet, even as an A student. Our favorite aspect was the homestay. The family he was placed with was so kind and welcoming from the moment he arrived, and they really went out of their way to make him feel truly at home. The program director and leads went above and beyond to find a family with similar interests so he was comfortable. They were also very involved and did an amazing job keeping us updated with daily pictures (which put my mama heart at ease!) I would recommend LITA for any student who is eager and enthusiastic about full Spanish language and cultural immersion.
My older daughter competed the 5-week program in southern Spain last year. She had a wonderful time. Jordan and Maricela did an extraordinary amount of research to find the perfect host family for her. They couldn't have found a better family. The warm parents had a home on an olive farm at the edge of town, children my daughter's age, a whole range of fun pets, and little cousins next door. The family brought my daughter on a number of day trips and weekend trips. My daughter loved the programs guides, enjoyed the morning classes, and learned an enormous amount of Spanish along the way. LITA really over-delivers.
The LITA experience is superbly designed for the high school student who is serious about learning Spanish. It was exactly what we were looking for: a small group, well looked after, in rural Spain (as opposed to a big city). The name, LITA, as explained by the director, reflects their approach, which is to keep it small and personal & in a small town where the students can genuinely explore the culture. My child came home with a greatly improved ability to speak and understand the language. He grew up a lot during the experience & gained confidence and independence. He also had a fabulous time with the tight-knit group of like-minded students, as well as his host family. As a parent, I was pleased with the wonderful group leaders, the communication overall, how the director set expectations, and the commitment by all to speak 100% Spanish. My favorite thing was when my son shared his project which he presented at the end, and I could see what a positive and meaningful experience it was for him.
Our 17 year old daughter participated in a five week LITA program in Northern Spain and had a life-changing experience. She especially enjoyed the cultural field trips, and the glimpses into the history of rural life in Spain. From music to cuisine to food, she experienced a little bit of many different parts of Spanish culture. Her confidence in her Spanish language skills grew with her confidence in meeting new and different people, and learning in new environments. She was challenged, but always felt supported and safe. This is a fantastic program!
