Exchange Program: Spain

Students at SchoolMosaic Intercultural Experiences LLC (Mosaicex) is privately owned, fully insured company that endeavors to promote global harmony through generational and cultural experiences.  One such experience is our exchange program done in conjunction with Vaughan Systems, one of the most respected English training schools in Spain.

Our goal with this program is to expand cultural understanding and language development through relationships between students and families.  To this end we hope that students will participate in a true exchange.  However, if a student wishes to host but is unable to travel we will allow them to do so.  Also if a student is unable to stay for the whole time of the exchange program they may opt to stay only for the touring portion of the program.

Mosaicex and Vaughan Systems share the philosophy of language learning through immersion in the culture and target language usage with natives on a daily basis.  To accomplish this we believe that it is necessary to prevent extended interaction between the students traveling overseas.  We work with many families from a variety of different schools and cities in the country being visited.  We have found that students are best served when the traveling students are separated and focused on their host family and school.  It is important to gain a historical perspective of the country.  Thus Mosaicex is offering a brief tour of several historical sites before the American students join their Spanish families.
Visiting the Vineyard
A representative from Mosaicex will be traveling to Madrid with the students from Cleveland.   There they will meet other students who began their journey in France. The group will travel to the south of Spain and see exciting sites in Granada and Seville.  Upon their return to Madrid, students participating in the family stays will meet their families.  Students who are staying outside of the Madrid area will travel to their prospective cities.  Those staying in Madrid will participate in day trips to visit the city and surrounding area.  There will be a Mosaicex representative available to the students 24 hours a day during their stay.

Individual Travel Insurance is required and purchased through a company called Travel Guard.  This is a company that has been recommended by our travel agent.  They are a well-established company that for many years has offered insurance to students and adults participating in this type of program.  The insurance covers medical needs, trip cancellation, and loss or damage to luggage.  This is included in the cost of the program.

It is wonderful that you are considering participating in the Mosaicex exchange program. You will be joining with students and teachers from other northeastern Ohio schools and from several schools in Spain in a time of cultural growth.   If you have any questions please follow the link on the “Contact us” page.
