Learn Spanish in Miami
Spanish Immersion in United States
Learning Spanish abroad in Miami, United States is one of many language immersion programs offered by AmeriSpan. The United States, bordered by Canada to the North, and Mexico to the South, possesses a diverse landscape, ranging from the rugged Rocky Mountains and deserts in the west, to flat plains of the mid-west to the long sandy coast lines along the Atlantic and Pacific shores. It is a vast country which spans 3,000 miles across. The country is divided into 50 states and is home to many large metropolitan cities like New York, Los Angeles, Miami, and Denver to name a few. Since the United States is such a large country, we have listed some attractions in Florida where our Spanish language program is located.
Learn Spanish Language in United States:
Miami’s tropical climate, landscape and cultural diversity are only part of what makes it a very popular visitor destination. This city also offers a sophisticated and varied nightlife, world-class dining, white sand beaches, shopping and a large community of artists, dancers and musicians. Almost half of Miami’s population is hispanic, which accounts for the fact that the Spanish language is as prevalent as English. Miami’s Cuban community, Little Havana, has retained its ethnic traditions and culture. This neighborhood has a distinct and colorful Latin flavor with signs written in Spanish, Cuban music, typical Cuban cuisine, and a Spanish-language theater called Teatro Ocho.
