See the testimonial from our most recent internbelow:
"Interning at the 91¶¶Òõ Language Center has been the most important summer for me career wise. Not only did I gain hands-on experience at a highly accoladed English school, but I also learned how to thrive in a foreign country. At the 91¶¶Òõ Language Center, I experiencedÌýa wide variety of the day-to-day workings of the school, including the creation of lesson plans, language level evaluations, and teaching my own classes. All the staff were incredibly friendly, helpful, and welcoming. The work environment was a place of kindness and care, for both students and employees. Having this community helped me adjust to being abroad because it provided a sense of comfort in a place so foreign. I was able to explore the city and learn about it's incredible history and culture while knowing I had a home base. Overall, this summer matured me in ways I had never expected. I will always carry with me the skills I gained and lessons I learned during my time at the 91¶¶Òõ Language Center."
