Feedback from Our 学生

“这是一次冒险! 课堂教学结构, behavior management techniques, the curriculum are all different depending on the country you choose. My personal experiences include teaching English in Italy and 墨西哥... I like teaching in other countries because I learn unique teaching practices alongside learning the country's specific culture. I hope to combine the knowledge from classrooms around the world to develop a practice, involving inclusive worldly views and independent thinking."

"Student teaching abroad is an opportunity to learn about becoming a teacher and to learn a lot more about yourself as a person. Experiencing a different culture by yourself is scary but it forces you out of your comfort zone." You will "meet some of the most incredible people. In just the first few weeks of my student teaching I have had some of the hardest and most rewarding days with my students."  - Brittany Duquaine
