Orientation

One of the distinguishing features of the Wells College Language Education Program is the recognition that a successful introduction to Spain must incorporate an understanding of the regions and their history. Professor Gil leads a 2- to 3-week trip through Spain, bringing his own professional experience and commitment to teaching others about the culture of Spain to the program. This trip not only introduces students to the culture, but also creates a sense of cohesiveness for the entire group. Following the trip, participants will be provided with a complete orientation to Zaragoza and the Language Education Program.
