Mary-Kate McHale (Class of '11)

ILE is amazing because the staff are like the missionaries to the missionaries, which is such a beautiful picture of the gospel.  In ILE, the teachers are constantly encouraging not only the students but also the other teachers.  The goal is to grow spiritually, and as a result the students learn better Spanish.  I think a verse that describes it well is Matthew 6:33, “Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you.”
