field from the viewpoint of the Mexican culture.
In addition to sending the Intensive Spanish Registration Form,
students interested in doing an internship should also contact
us 45 days in advance of the desired start date of their

previous to registering in the program in order to insure that
the credits may be transferred. |

Testimonial
"The Internship has been well worth it. I have been able
to practice my Spanish every day. Now, I feel I have a better
knowledge of Bilingual Schools and how they impact children
at such a young age. The internship site is good because it
offers a variety of age of children".
