I learned that history is everywhere. It may take a little searching, but it is there. It can be in the walls that surround a city, the structure of a building, the different materials that make up a tower. In Europe, it can be hidden in plain sight. It instilled in me a certain awe when our professors pointed out that the part ... A student - Berea College View Entire Review
I learned a lot about who Grace Callow is, how she functions in the world, and about various cultures. When I played volleyball, I got to be around people from different countries (Ukraine, the Jordan, Lithuania, Italy, Venezuela, Ecuador, Germany, and many more) so I got to hear many different, beautiful languages and learn abo...

I learned so much about myself and what my priorities really are, because when you are away from some things you realize you actually can lived without them and it doesn't actually make that big a difference. Molly R - Berea College View Entire Review
Even if my spanish vocabulary didn't improve much, I have much more confidence. I think that's what I gained most. A student - Berea College View Entire Review
When they say you learn a lot about yourself when you study abroad, they're not kidding. Definitely worth it just for that. My Spanish is so much better, and I have the confidence to use it even when I know I'm messing up. A student - Berea College View Entire Review
I learned a lot about non-American culture and my skill with the Spanish language improved vastly A student - Berea College View Entire Review
I learned that countries may separate us but there is an important human element that makes a country what it is. Spain is not a land mass, it is home to my family, to my friends, to beautiful culture and history and to adventures! It was sooooo worthwhile. I can't wait to go back.

Because I had never traveled abroad before my trip, this was a big stepping stone in my life. This trip taught me that I am much more courageous than I had thought, and that I have the ability to adapt much more quickly than I ever imagined. It certainly was a struggle at times to adjust to living with a new family and roommate,... Kayla G - Ball State University View Entire Review
I learned some tricks to living cheaply in Europe. I would do the same program again, but I don't think I need to go back to Spain again on my own. Lucas W - Berea College View Entire Review
Table manners. A student - Berea College View Entire Review
My Spanish language skills improved dramatically. Being immersed in the culture forced me to learn the language, which was hard but rewarding. You also learn so much about yourself when you are in a foreign setting, one that is not comfortable to you. Studying in Segovia was so worthwhile. The city is beautiful, the travel was e...

I learned that I need a Christian community around me. Yes, that was worthwhile. A student - Berea College View Entire Review
One could write a book about this question. Segovia is simply AMAZING city for a student who is willing to study Spanish. People are extremely nice and helpful, and the city itself is the most gorgeous one! I feel very lucky for being able to study there. Thank you, Berea College!

I have grown a lot and learned so much during the experience. It was eye-opening and I enjoyed it a lot. Spain is a beautiful country with rich history and great culture. A student - Berea College View Entire Review
I learned that a summer is not enough time to improve in fluency. A student - Berea College View Entire Review
It was a very costly dream come true. Costly in so many ways. Austin W - Murray State University View Entire Review
Spain helped me grow up. I was in a new culture that I knew almost nothing about, and I still had to get an experience out of it while learning and having a good time. I was also thousands of miles away from anyone I knew well, so I had to throw a social aspect into that. While I never really acknowledged any of these things ...

My study abroad experience was very worthwhile. In addition to the Spanish language, I learned about the culture of Spain and the history that shaped it into the country it is today. I feel much more connected to the rest of the world now. Susan A - Morehead State University View Entire Review
