In today’s podcast, we hear from Kim Griffin, director of Middlebury College’s Spanish school in Spain. Middlebury is a U.S. college located in the state of Vermont. It offers both undergraduate and graduate programs in Spanish in Spain and in this interview Kim talks about the unique challenges of maintaining a language immersion environment away from Middlebury’s Vermont campus.

Kim, who grew up in an English-speaking household in upstate New York, today speaks Spanish like a native, but that wasn’t always so. She tells us about her experiences learning and eventually mastering the Spanish language.
