Cultural Visits
At Instituto San Fernando, we are conscious of the fact that the success of a Spanish language program does not only rest in the quality of the classes, but also in the development of a cultural activities/free time program that immerses the student in the culture of the country that he/she is visiting.
The cultural activities component of our programs is designed to provide our students with a vision of Spanish culture and society in the most complete and integrated form possible. It is based on diverse criteria, including our academic standards and the personal interests of our students. All activities are carefully planned, are discussed before and after in the classroom, include the appropriate materials, and always count on the presence of a specialized professor-monitor.
We not only teach culture in the classroom, we allow each student to experience the most important aspects of Spanish society through a carefully structured program of cultural visits.
Some of these cultural visits might be:
