^{01 / THE REAL GAP}

^_____ THE CLASSROOM-TO-REAL-LIFE GAP

The classroom prepared you for Spanish.

This prepares you for Spain.

When we surveyed people about their past study-abroad experiences, many described a gap between feeling confident before departure and actually being prepared for real-life communication once abroad. Fast speech, unfamiliar accents, regional expressions, and everyday interactions were common challenges.

Revive Before You Go™ was designed for that gap—practicing how to listen, process, respond, and recover in real-life situations, not another round of grammar.

^{⟡ Built from real feedback. Shaped by former study-abroad students and Lily's extensive experience living, studying and traveling in Spain.}

^{02 / WHAT CHANGES}

^_____ NOT MORE GRAMMAR. REAL-LIFE PREPARATION.

From translating in your head to staying in the conversation.

1

Listen

Train your ear for pace, pronunciation and the Spanish you’ll actually hear in Spain.

2

Process

Build the calm, practical habits that help you make sense of what you heard—without freezing or translating every word.

3

Respond

Practice speaking in small groups so useful language becomes easier to access in the moment.

4

Recover

Learn what to say when you miss something, make a mistake or need a different way to explain.

^{03 / THE PROGRAM}

^_____ PRACTICAL BY DESIGN

Prepare for the conversations between the landmarks.

Short listening and cultural-prep lessons reactivate what you already know. Live small-group sessions turn it into real speaking confidence.

^₀₁Meeting People & Making Friends

Introductions, invitations and keeping a conversation moving.

^₀₂Getting Around

Metro, trains, directions and the small questions that keep a day on track.

^₀₃Food, shopping & daily life

Ordering naturally, asking for what you need and understanding the response.

^₀₄When things don't go as planned

Clarifying, solving everyday problems and recovering with confidence.

^₀₅Spanish from Spain

Accents, useful expressions and cultural cues that other courses may not cover.

This is for you if... You took Spanish—but it’s been a minute. You can read more than you can comfortably say. You worry native speakers will talk too fast. You want to connect with people, not retreat into English. You want practical preparation without adding another academic course.

^_____ WHAT IT ISN'T

Not more grammar.
Not for college credit.
Not a promise of instant fluency.
It’s rehearsal for your life abroad.

It’s a guided reactivation: the right practice, at the right moment, for the experience ahead.

^_____ MEET YOUR INSTRUCTOR

Hola, I'm Lily Barcelona.

Spanish became my passport to some of the most memorable and incredible moments of my life. I built Revive Before You Go™ so students can step into Spain ready to connect, participate, and grow.

I have seen it again and again: students can know a tremendous amount of Spanish and still hesitate when it is time to use it. This is the practical support I wish every student had before departure—culturally informed, low-pressure and built around real life.

^_____ FOR PARENTS

A small investment in a more confident landing.

Study abroad is a significant investment. This focused preparation helps students use the Spanish they already know in the everyday moments that build independence, belonging and cultural engagement.

^{Revive Before You Go™ is an independent program and is not a university course.}
