Tequila Summer Institute

Sangria certainly helped with my initial uptake of the Spanish language when I moved to Spain, so I think if I drink enough margaritas, I can reach an advanced level of Spanish by the end of summer.

If you are also  interested in self-directed language acquisition, here is the list of resources which I developed for our summer course; exam is August 25th at the MacBouch which happily coincides with the 10th Annual Point Michaud Surf Classic.
