Adventures await

When first enrolling I did not know what to expect. I had just finished college and still wanted to do something more and this was the perfect thing to keep me busy as well as interested. Being able to travel at a young age in addition to getting paid is a great way to learn and get international experience. ITA is excellent with the information they provide to future students as well as alumni!

As someone with a bachelors in education who’s dream was to travel, ITA helped show me that dream could become a reality! I loved this course and the additional knowledge, resources, and tools it gave me to not only use in my ESL career but certainly what I learned can carry over into the general education classrooms here in the U.S. as well. I truly value the experience this course allowed me and will continue to allow me as I begin my travels.
