Arianna, student july 2012
It is the first time I’m in Valencia and I have to say that this city has delighted me. From a cultural point of view it has a lot to offer, because I found many museums and historical sites to visit. On the other hand, Valencia is a city that surely also offers the possibility to have fun and relax. The beach for example is very nice and for me it was a place where I could relax and get away from the movement of the city center. And that only 10 minutes away by metro! (in fact, if you are in the city center, you could never tell that Valencia is a city of the sea!).
As for my experience, with Taronja School I am very very pleased and satisfied: I learned a lot, I could improve my grammar and also my expressive abilities. Through the many discussions we’ve always had in Spanish class I have learned a lot of new words and expressions. Talking with my classmates and discuss current issues with them has for me been, the best thing to practice Spanish (because I got in touch with people coming from all over the world and with who I shared the Spanish language as a fact we had in comun) and also to enrich my vocabulary.
However, for me, Valencia has not been represented only by the Spanish school and the culture, but also by the family I lived with during these weeks. I got along very well with my new Spanish family and their three wonderful children, indeed there house, but for me it has almost been a home.
Unfortunately my experience here is going to end tomorrow, but I already want to come back to Valencia to enjoy more this wonderful city has to offer me and of course I would also love to return toTaronja School because I can always improve my Spanish level.Thank you all, thank you all very much!
