It definitely made me want to travel more--leave the cornfields in Illinois a few more times. Kaitlin N - Illinois State University View Entire Review
I gave it three stars because though it wasn't something that allowed me to learn a lot about education and teaching, I did learn a lot about myself as a person. :) Jennifer P - Illinois State University View Entire Review
I think it helped in my professional development as a teacher, and helped me to grow and become a more understanding person. Even though I was in an English speaking country, there were things I learned that I can take back about students with English as a second language. I was surprised by the types of things I learned about m... Bonnie D - Illinois State University View Entire Review

Yes! I learned how to be independent and also to be more accepting of other cultures. The way we live are lives are great... but it is not the only way to live.
