If you are planning to study Spanish abroad, chances are that you are in for the experience of a lifetime. You can receive both a cultural experience as well as an optimal learning environment while attending Spanish language school. However, students occasionally make mistakes in planning before they even arrive in Latin America that keep them from having the optimal experience. This article explores some of the most common errors and how to avoid them.
Mistake #4 Don’t Bother Asking for References
This point may sound counterintuitive. However, asking for references from past students is oftentimes not worth the effort. This can prove to be a waste of time as many schools will just put you in touch with past students who are staff friends. A better question is to ask which professional organizations work with the school. These third parties have usually visited the school and can give it a reputable stamp of quality.
