Summer 2015 Participant
The relationships and interactions with all of the different people was the most rewarding aspect of this program.

Nora Schultz, Summer 2014 Participant
The Arabic teachers were very helpful and always there for you.

Nicholas Andrew Castans, Summer 2013 Participant
My favorite part of this program was getting to learn a new language and culture during the weekdays, and then practicing the language and planting ourselves into the culture during the weekends as we explored new cities.
