QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE
How to choose a Spanish program for my teen? Read our guide!
Can both programs be combined?
Yes, the teen can surely add one or more than one week of the Academic Immersion Program to the Summer Camp. For example, if your teen wants to go abroad for three weeks instead of just two weeks during the summer, he/ she can add either add one week of Academic Immersion before or after our Teen Camp Session.

When to choose the Academic Immersion Program for Teenagers?
In general parents choose this program if they want their child to be fully immersed with certain academic goals in mind. Teens can come individually, or parents may form their own mini-groups. We are able to fully customize the program to the needs of the group (max. 6 teens per group).
