Summer Program in Guadalajara
Immersion in Language and Culture in Guadalajara, Mexico
This three-week, home-stay program provides an authentic
experience in the Spanish language and Mexican culture. The city of
Guadalajara, the second largest in the country, serves as the
classroom for Butler students to observe and learn about its
people, culture, history, and language. Students meet each morning
in the historic downtown and are paired with a different teacher
and cultural tour. The rotation of teachers and guided tours
exposes the student to a wide variety of accents, personalities,
and aspects of Mexican culture. In addition to daily classes, other
activities, such as weekend trips to Puerto Vallarta and Mazamitla,
classes in art and dance, and family/teacher/student social
gatherings, are important components of the program. This year we
added a train tour to Tequila PADRISIMO!
