What our Alumni Have to Say John Choi - High School Student
I just wanted to say that I had one of the most intensive courses I have
ever taken for Spanish while I was at this school. I mean, I think my
language fluency and proficiency improved a lot. I can't think of any
other method through which I could have learned this much in such little
time. Qué bueno! Wendy Froehlich - Medical Student

¡Muchisimos gracias a todos en la Academia! Seis meses se fueron
muy rápido, aprendí mucho y hice grandes amigos. Siempre
recordaré mi tiempo en Quito con buenas memorias y espero regresar
un día para visitar mis profesores y familia ecuatoriana. Siempre
ustedes tienen un amigo en Seattle.

Thank you so much for another excellent time here in Ecuador. My teachers
and host family were excellent. You have made this country my second home
and I hope to return soon.

Ich bedanke mich sehr herzlich bei allen Angestellten der Schule für
die Hilfe, die sie mir zukommen liessen und für die Antworten auf
meine vielen Fragen. Ich habe mich aufgehoben gefühlt. Der Unterricht
hat dazu beigegeben, dass mein Spanisch deutlich besser geworden ist und
ich mich schon sehr viel sicherer fühle. Das Aktivitätsprogramm
war abwechslungsreich und ich konnte auf seine Gestaltung Einfluss nehmen.
Muchas gracias a todos!

Thank you so much for making my vacation so wonderful. Aprendí
mucho, mucho, mucho en su escuela. This is my second time. All the teachers
were kind, friendly and inteligent. I can' t remember how to spell in
English. Otra vez, muchas muchas Gracias! Nadaa Taiyab - Finance-Investment Banking

I couldn't have asked for a better experience than I have had with the
Academia de Español Quito. The Aministration was very concientous
to fulfill my requests for the program. I had an excellent teacher who
fulfilled all my desires in instruction: literature, culture, history
and conversation.
My familia was wonderful and spent a great deal of time with me. I ate
very well! They tried to always give me typical Ecudorian food and they
included me in many activities.
Quito is marvelous and the people are super. I would highly recommend
the program Español Activa.
I am completly satisfied.

Thank you so much for providing us with a wonderful experience for a second
time. Your program has made me a better reader, writer, speaker and thinker
in Spanish. So much so, I can hardly think in English at this moment.
I hope to return as soon as possible. Samantha Jacob

¡Muchísimas gracias por una muy buena experiencia con ustedes!
He aprendido tantas cosas - de la gramática pero también
de la cultura de su país. Sin duda, voy a regresar, y cuando regrese,
voy a traer a todos mis amigos.

I had a wonderful experience at the Academia Español and feel I
must return for more of the same as soon as possible. You've given me
an amazing start and I must continue! I enjoyed the morning classes and
the afternoons "out and about Quito". Monica Small

Hola Quito!
I hope this e-mail finds everyone at the Academia safe and healthy! I
just want you to know that my 4 weeks in your school has made such a difference
in my studies here in college. That was one of the best educational investments
I have made! Paul R. Klein - Graduated Student

¡Muchas gracias! My experience here has been wonderful. The professors
and staff were very helpful and the host family a pleasure to know. My
Spanish has evolved remarkably since my first week in Quito. I highly
recommend the Anaconda rainforest excursion to everyone.
Thanks again for a spectacular month!

Solo quiero decir muchas gracias por toda la enseñanza. Disfruté
mucho mi tiempo aquí. Las actividades cada día eran buenas.
También la información y la ayuda que recibí sobre
los “tours” y cosas a ver y hacer eran excelentes. Me sentía
muy segura aquí y la gente era siempre amable. Voy a extrañar
a todo el mundo. Gracias. Patresa Konderla - Teacher

Academia de Español Quito is a wonderful school! The teachers were
very well qualified and did a great job. After being in the school with
these teachers, I feel I understand a little better the customs and traditions
of the country, not only through them, but through the literature studies.
I have earned a new respect and feeling for the Ecuadorian people. Our
breaks in the morning gave enough of a break for the students to rest
from the rigors of classwork and visit with other students who were learning
the language also. Some of the activities during the break gave me some
great ideas for my classroom. I was even privileged to have a birthday
party given for me during one of the breaks and we also celebrated July
4th with a picnic and dancing. Through this experience I have made new
friends.
This is a great program and will recommend it to anyone who is interested
in study abroad.
