Program Reviews:
Scott Allen Friesen, Summer 2014 Participant
I learned that it requires a great deal of discipline and patience to realize just how invaluable full language immersion really is. Not to mention the time with our host families taught us so much about the daily routine of the German culture as a whole.

Summer 2015 Participant
My favorite part of the program was that we were able to go to so many different cities. We were able to experience Cologne, Berlin, and Munich, and had a handful of detours to smaller places as well. The food, architecture, history, and people in each of these cities were all distinctly German, but different at the same time. It was an eye-opening experience for someone who had never traveled out of the States before.

Natalie Ann Newgent, Summer 2016 Participant
Living with a host family in Holzkirchen really taught me a lot. You will be forced to speak German. I came out of my comfort zone and gained more confidence in my speaking.
