Behind the scenes
CulturaGo’s Introduction to Spanish Culture is the combined effort of many passionate, dedicated, and talented individuals.
Let’s start with the course creator, Maria Mazur. You’ve got her to thank for much of the integral information you’ll find in this course.
Postdoctoral and senior researchers and teachers from prestigious universities, such as Pompeu Fabra University in Barcelona and the University of Oxford, have also lent their expertise to CulturaGo’s Introduction to Spanish Culture.
Their careful auditing of the course content has helped keep us true to our core values of accountability and accuracy.
Additionally, Introduction to Spanish Culture draws on the wisdom and first-hand accounts of over twenty contributors. Among them are exchange students, teachers, digital nomads, and social workers from various areas of Spain, as well as expats from countries like the US, UK, Germany, and China.
We’ve put a lot of work into making this course the best it can be!

Why People Love CulturaGo
Learners share their experience of CulturaGo's culture courses.
"Thank you for creating this course, a lot of the information that I read and watched within the course have proved to be useful. I have seen some of these examples during my own Erasmus experience and having done the course, some of these examples now seem familiar to me.”
Ryan, De Montfort University student in Spain
"I think the course has greatly helped me with knowing about Spanish culture before I arrived in Spain. After being here for a few weeks, I feel like everything I learned in the course is useful in my daily life and whenever I encounter a foreign situation abroad. Thank you greatly for offering this course for students getting ready to travel and/or study abroad. I definitely appreciated all of the helpful hints and information that I learned after taking the CulturaGo Spain course and I am definitely going to recommend it to others in the future."
Collin, UFL Warrington student in Spain
“Over the course of my years learning Castellano, I would say that there are things that I already knew, some iconic landmarks such as museums and about the food. But this course was super in depth and really insightful into the Spanish culture! The videos were super awesome! They provided a great break from reading and hearing about other people's first hand experience and what they would do next time was very interesting. It makes me feel more better prepared about what to expect when I do go to Spain."
Caitlin, Auckland University student in Spain
"During times when cultural exchange has been limited, my curiosity about other cultures has definitely increased. This course was wonderful in offering a balanced view of the country's culture."
Yonghui, Auckland University student in Spain
