Now You Can Have Spanish Immersion Program Cambridge

By Lelia Hall


People study languages for all sorts of different reasons. Perhaps the most common is to fulfill a requirement for an elective course in school. Sometimes people are assigned by their employers to move to a foreign country. Sometimes just going on vacation can be sufficient motivation to embark on a Spanish immersion program Cambridge MA. This is actually one of the best ways to gain a deep perspective on a country, its language and its culture in a short period of time.

Named after the prestigious university in the United Kingdom's county of Cambridgeshire in the East Anglian region, Cambridge MA is located in Middlesex County (also a county in England) in the state of Massachusetts. Cambridge is situated north of the famous city of Boston, about 15 minutes' drive away. Cambridge is host to not only the top college for women, Radcliffe University, it is also home to two other immensely famous institutions of higher learning, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Harvard University.

The town's location, upriver from Boston Harbor, was chosen in 1630 because it would be easy to defend from British troops. In addition to Boston, Cambridge MA is handy for Somerville, Arlington, Belmont, and Watertown. In the census of 2010, there were just over 7 percent people with Hispanic or Latino origin.

The Hispanic component of the local population come from diverse places on the globe, specifically Europe and the Central and South Americas. Puerto Rico and Cuba are both island nations in the Caribbean Sea south of the United States. The Dominican Republic, formerly Santo Domingo, is also of Spanish origin, although it is now a Francophone country sharing the island of Hispaniola with the poorer nation of Haiti.

The Kingdom of Spain shares the Iberian Peninsula with Portugal in southwest Europe. Considering its widespread diaspora, Spain clearly sponsored some of the world's most famous explorers, much of which took place in the 15th century. In terms of acreage, Spain is Europe's second-largest country. Population-wise, it is the fifth. The country is renown for sangria, salsa, and sunshine. Every year, British tourists flock to the Spanish coast.

The United Mexican States are located on the Pacific coast of Central America, just south of California and sharing borders with Texas, New Mexico and Arizona. Perhaps surprisingly, Mexico boasts one of the world's largest economies. According to the World Bank, Mexico is an upper-middle income country. It is the single largest silver producer in the world and is one of the top ten oil producers.

Cuba is an island republic in the Caribbean sea. There has been a sort of miniature cold war between the U. S. And Cuba since the 1950s, when the then President Bautista was deposed and Fidel Castro took over the leadership. Cuba is often featured on American television series' like Miami Vice and CSI Miami.

Native English speakers often have trouble choosing a suitable second language. Spanish is an excellent choice of for someone seeking to expand their linguistic skills.
