I LOVE MY CLASS!! Sylvia never got mad even if I got the same thing wrong a hundred times. Now that I know it I feel so much better about myself. I learned more in my 8 days than the entire year in my high school Spanish class. Anyone who's not sure about Spanish put them in Sylvia´s class because she always makes you feel good about yourself and she is a great teacher.

". . . I was also impressed by the teachers, whom were very nice about making adjustments. I could not have been happier with my class. There were just three of us . . . Many thanks to Eleonora as well! I learned an incredible amount from her in such a short time. Before the trip my communication skills were low to none. I was barely able to tell a waiter what I wanted to drink. I remember the first night I spent twenty minutes practicing how to ask if I could take a shower. I was amazed by my progress. Within the first two weeks I was able to carry on a conversation and join in with my family at dinner. It really sparked a greater interest in Spanish, and when I got back to the States I actually missed having to use it to communicate. Now I found myself studying daily on my own.
 
We had so much fun in class too. We shared many laughs and great times while playing games, going on outings, and having random yet hilarious conversations. I learned a lot about the Costa Rican culture... I know I made a lot of mistakes and sounded really stupid at times, but I never felt embarrassed. She was always very encouraging. Eleonora really added to my great experience!!"
