Conversation Classes
A unique feature of the WSU Summer Program in Puebla is the effort we make to put
you in contact with the people of Puebla. We do not expect you to assume the full
responsibility for getting acquainted with poblanos, something which is very difficult
for most foreigners to accomplish.
Rather, we bring the poblanos to you during your conversation class. We have two types of local conversation instructors: acompa帽antes and directores de conversaci贸n. The acompa帽antes escort you to places of interest and talk to you in Spanish for an hour and a half each day. Afterwards, the directores de conversaci贸n eat lunch with you while conversing with you in Spanish for another full hour. What better classroom could you have than the city of Puebla shown and explained to you by the poblanos themselves? Do your best to participate and watch your improvement as the days go by.
