Elina, Finland

As a working adult, coming to study Spanish for three weeks is a big investment of time and money. It’s also a mental challenge. I have come to profoundly understand how the language and culture are connected. The Spanish culture and environment are part of the process of learning. I have also learnt about my own culture and about the cultures of my classmates. The teachers at Taronja are personable and have an encouraging attitude. To learn the language you need a lot of time, practice and patience; and more time, practice and patience. I need a lot more of all of these. So many times, during these weeks I have felt almost depressed by the learning of Spanish, and at the same time have found Spanish more interesting, and it fascinates me more than any other language, it’s also very difficult to grasp. After this time in Valencia, I am going to continue with my life long journey with Spanish. Taronja has reawoken anew my curiosity with Spanish and I will continue feeding it. I have also promised myself to enjoy more things I know and to try and have a curious attitude towards the irregular forms and endless exceptions you need to learn.
