Spanish programs justifying international travel produce progress surpassing “prior months, if not years” of domestic attempts, provide Monte Albán “reserved for our private Fluenz group,” deliver “one of the best dinners” with authentic regional cuisine, enable feeling “the pulse of the cities visited,” attract participants completing “5 immersions and counting” through repeated international travel, coordinate “walking around Oaxaca with a Fluenz coach and interacting with local shop owners,” compel annual international travel where participants meet “once or twice a year,” inspire planning “to sign-up for another Spanish immersion for early next year,” prompt immediately booking next international trip stating “I don’t think I can give higher praise,” and justify extending international stays three additional days. For US-based learners seeking intensive Spanish without international travel, Fluenz also offers Spanish Bootcamp in Miami.
