"The Institute of Spanish Studies is fantastic I didn't really even know what I was getting into when I came to study here at the institute. But I was very pleasantly surprised. Everyone on staff at the Institute is very caring and willing to help. The environment at the Institute is very relaxed, and I feel at home here. The classes have all been fantastic, and their small class size and high level of interactivity makes learning easy, and at times a lot of fun. I'm really going to miss this Institute, because my time studying here has been wonderful and I am so thankful for the opportunity I was given to come to this amazing place."
