“My home stay experience was WONDERFUL!!! The woman I stayed with was kind, warm and went out of her way to make sure I was comfortable. The food was excellent, my room was comfortable and clean - everything was great! The school staff was very friendly and worked hard to make sure we had a good experience. I think the programs are an excellent opportunity to study another language and experience a different culture.”

“It was a great experience, Rio is an amazing city. The school was great, the teachers made the class easy and fun, and my Portuguese definitely improved. I made some great friends and really enjoyed staying with my host family. I thought the school was very good.”
