What Students Are Saying...

I had an amazing time on this trip. I met so many new friends and had so many great experiences. I learned so much for my teachers and I genuinely felt like they cared about my learning. I enjoyed Campus life and all the excursions we went on as a group and I am gonna miss my time here in Spain!

I just wanted to praise the entire Villa Aurora community again!! Everyone is so friendly and welcoming, I wanted to praise Chef Ray, Edu, Brenda, Antonietta, Avraam, Professor Emmanule, Graziella, Paolo, and the theology students!!! I felt very happy and welcomed because of these people. This program is truly special and such a good experience. I am so glad I chose this program !!

Teachers were helpful and easy to work with. The language course students were mostly integrated into the school life as much as any other local student.

The most positive aspects were the professors, the campus and student body, and living in a dorm with other native Spanish speakers. The professors were all very wonderful people and patient with our learning. The variety of classes helped me encounter different parts of the language as well. Being surrounded by other students helped me to make friends with others, learn more of the culture, and of course, practice my language skills in real time. I also really appreciated the spiritual aspect there. There were so many ways to get involved in spiritual life and I learned so much about God and grew in my relationship with Him.

I just want to say that this program has changed my life, before this program the farthest I had ever gone was Mexico and so leaving to travel so far on my own was such a scary idea. When I first arrived at the program I was so scared and I wanted to leave but as soon as I met my roommate, I knew that I would love the program and the people I met there too. If I could live at that university with all the people in my program and all the staff I would I miss them so much and I would knew trade that experience for the world. I want to thank the ACA program and Sahmyook university and especially Amy for helping me feel at home so fast and even know checking in on us. I will never forget the summer I had in Korean 🫶🏻
