All about education

Boston, MA – June 19, 2006 – Academic Studies Abroad, a leader in study abroad programs to Spain, France, Italy, Ireland, and England is pleased to offer students the opportunity to take classes in English or Spanish at a Spanish university.

While options exist in Sevilla for Americans to take courses in English, it is either at facilities where there are no Spaniards or at a university on the outskirts of the city.

“Taking course only with other Americans defeats the purpose of going to Sevilla, especially when opportunities exist for taking courses at a Spanish university. We at ASA are proud that our students who are not advanced at Spanish have the option of taking courses in English at a Spanish university,” said Lee Frankel, Director of Academic Studies Abroad.

Students on the ASA program in Sevilla live with a host family, attend both day and overnight excursions throughout Spain, and have tutoring available from on-site staff. These three things help students not only improve their level of fluency, but also help them gain a better understand of the Spanish culture.

Located in the south of Spain, approximately three and a half hours south of Madrid by high speed train, Sevilla is home to one of the most famous cathedrals and bullrings in Spain. A laid-back lifestyle and typically beautiful weather is what attracts so many students and tourists to Sevilla.
