"... While I was here I had the chance to meet not only native US citizens, but also other international students who were just as far or more from home as myself. Here I was able to see that cultural differences are more than just differences in language, food, appearances, and personal habits. . I have nothing but praise for those teachers that encouraged me with a lot of patience to seek for more knowledge. Every class was a constant challenge and I found myself learning something new every day. I absolutely could not have asked for a better, more eye-opening experience. This summer was an amazing time and I feel as if I have grown a lot as a person and in my language skills. I will miss my host family, friends and teachers..."
