Summer Abroad in Guatemala: Culture, Diversity, and Education at Casa Herrera - Info Session
Join us for more information about the exciting Summer Abroad program: Culture, Diversity, and Education at Casa Herrera in Antigua, Guatemala!
This Summer Session II program explores the complex relationship between education and larger society. Revolving around Guatemalan cultures, students will be immersed in the language while living with local host families. Students will spend time in local schools and undertake an ESL service learning at a preschool, while learning about the cultural and social context of education in Guatemala and the U.S.
Students will develop and deliver ESL lessons to Maya children, explore Maya villages, and take a second course in either Spanish (beginner through advanced) or a Mayan language (intermediate Spanish language proficiency required), taught by local faculty.
