“I had an awesome time studying abroad

in Seville, Spain in Spring 2016 with

Centro Mundolengua. I am so thankful that

my college uses Centro Mundolengua for

study abroad. Centro Mundolengua is one

big family that is there to help you with

anything and everything you need. They

are always loving, kind, and encouraging.

They provide students with the best host

families. I miss my wonderful ‘familia

española’ so much! Centro Mundolengua

provided awesome excursions to places that

I really wanted to go to such as Morocco and

Barcelona. We also had fun weekend events

such as kayaking, visiting Roman ruins, and

biking by the Guadalquivir River. I also

got to take two classes with Mundolengua

and they were fantastic. The teachers were

very knowledgeable and they did a great

job. Overall, I love Centro Mundolengua and

I would highly encourage every student to

check them out. I am so excited for friends

who will be with Mundolengua this Fall!”

time during my study abroad

trip in Seville thanks to Centro

Mundolengua! They made my

transition from America to Spain

an easy one and they always

went above and beyond to answer

my questions and get me any

not have been done otherwise. I

am forever grateful for their

friendliness and I cannot wait to

“My first trip to Spain would not have been

as beneficial without Centro Mundolengua.

The program was flawless from the moment

I met my host family to the day I stepped

on the plane heading home. My host family

and guides did not speak very much

English, so I had no choice but to learn

how to communicate, which was essential

to the language immersion. The constant

conversation and listening played a huge

part for me to better understand and use

Spanish. Another thing I loved about the

program was the variety of activities and

places we had the chance to visit.”

“As a D1 Student-Athlete, I never thought studying abroad would be in my college journey but Centro

MundoLengua made it all possible and then some! I stayed for 6 weeks in beautiful Cádiz and truly found

my love for the Spanish language, people, and the rich culture. Everything about my stay in Spain was

incredible. My host family was as charming as you would hope for and very accommodating. Classes were

something I looked forward to due to some of the best professors I’ve ever had in my college career (Laura,

Macarena, Inma, Cati, and Teresa). The weather was beautiful everyday and that might be an understatement

(it didn’t rain once). All of the excursions planned by MundoLengua were informative and adventurous,

such as Flamenco and Salsa classes and a weekend away touring the Alhambra in Granada or viewing Seville

from the famous Setas. But what really hit home was the immense amount of passion, care, and thought

from the staff of Centro MundoLengua. Yaye and Auxi have got to be the sweetest people on earth and I

truly thank them for making my study-abroad the experience of a lifetime! I would recommend to anyone

and ESPECIALLY student-athletes looking for an authentic study abroad journey that you do it here, with

Centro MundoLengua.”

“I had the privilege to go to Cadiz in 2013 and I have to say that MundoLengua exceeded all of my expectations. The organization is impeccable and the programs are ideal. I was able to learn about the Spanish culture and learn a lot about the city in a short amount of time, and I still remember all of those moments.

Community Service Program in Spain

This program is for students wanting to make a difference and gain invaluable experience through public engagement. Our university students typically have the opportunity to volunteer at various organizations either during the summer, fall or spring semester for 1 to 6 months. Centro MundoLengua’s unmatched community service opportunities for our students set us apart from other study abroad programs. We work with many organizations that are dedicated to improving today’s Spanish society. There are many possibilities, and Centro MundoLengua will work with you to custom-design the appropriate volunteer program according to your preferences and aspirations. Many of our students also choose to combine their community service program with intensive or semi-intensive Spanish courses in order to get the most out of their experience.

“This is MSU Denver’s third year working with Centro MundoLengua. Both the students and faculty members have been overwhelmingly satisfied with the quality of Centro ML’s Cádiz summer program. The program directors are excellent: I can always count on their flexibility. MSU Denver needed to revamp the structure and time frame of their Spain program and Centro ML was extremely helpful and supportive throughout the whole process. As a faculty member, I have been quite impressed by the level of professionalism, knowledge, and organization demonstrated by all of the coordinators and excursion leaders. The students have enjoyed their host families and the afternoon activities here in Cádiz as well. They rave about the city and how it is a perfect place for a 6-week immersion program. MSU Denver is excited to continue its relationship with Centro ML and we look forward to many more years of working together! I have absolutely no reservations in recommending Centro ML!!” Graham Ignizio * University of Denver
