Bilingual Exchange Program with Mexican
Students
Experiencia is also a school that offers foreign language
classes for Mexican students. The establishment of "intercambios" many
years ago, has made the school well known in Cuernavaca because apart from
practicing languages, it actively contributes to a better intercultural
understanding and friendship between foreign and Mexican students. All students
may participate in the bilingual exchange.
Various topics of interest are discussed in small
groups or the students simply decide what to talk about, one hour in Spanish
and another in English, German, Italian or French.
Film and Video Evening
Documentary and feature films about history, culture,
politics and life in Mexico, as well as Latin America and other continents.
All students may participate.
