Student Testimonials:

Photos of Edu-Culture Immersion Programs in France"I felt very welcome and at meal time I was included in all conversation. Not only do you learn a lot with your host family, but you get an understanding of their culture."
- James

"Go for it! The families are all nice and really care about you. Don't be scared of the language, because no one is judging you. In my opinion it's better than other programs because you really don't speak English."
- Elinor
