Trying Before Buying Sold Me On This Course
by: Molly Parker - United StatesProgram: TEFL Plus (A New and Better TEFL Certification)The fact that I got to try out the course first was a big reason I jumped in. I needed to see if it worked and what the course was like and not worry about if I wasted my money. It is a great TEFL course and I'm ready for the next step.
I’ve enjoyed this program because I get to travel
by: Imogen GaddProgram: Au Pair in Italy with The Cultural Exchange ProjectMy goals for this program are honestly just to relax and make the most of this experience, to utilise it as a chance to grow as a person. I was able to do a weekend trip with my host family to Naples at the end of July :) It was really nice being a part of the family while traveling. My host father likes to play The Clash and AC/DC while cooking. That gets everyone in the house excited for dinner and family time. Very different from my own home. Being in Sardinia, I am spending a lot of time...
There are so many opportunities to get out and enjoy the country
by: TiffanyProgram: Tutor English to a Family in GermanyI came in to the program with the goal of better understanding the German culture, but now my goal is to also do a few more trips around Germany over the weekends. This program is perfect for that. To that end, I recently visited Cologne with one of the girls I tutor and we had a great time. It was my first big train ride in Germany so it was nice to go together and chat on the way. She was also very interested in American music and so we listened to music on my phone all the way to Cologne. It ...

I found Geovisions just by googling “Teach in Thailand” and their program sounded good, especially because it allowed me to go to Thailand early and take the TESOL course while in the country as opposed to taking it online or somewhere back in the U.S.

Up until I went to volunteer in Italy, I had never set foot outside of the United States. I had always wanted to travel, but I was extremely hesitant to take that first step and try something new. One day a friend had mentioned that we should try something new, something new like packing up and going to another country for a summer. Without any hesitation the hunt was on to find a program that was intriguing.
