<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\u201cThe experience of working with students from all over the world who want to be here with local families and experience American life changed and shaped the course of my own life. I love connecting families and students and doing the same for them!\u201d<\/em><\/p>

– Claudette<\/p><\/div>

“I Love working with international exchange students, mostly because I get to learn so much about their culture and their experiences and help them have great experiences when they come to the US. And then when I travel internationally, I have lots of places that I can visit and meet people there!”<\/em><\/p>

– Anita<\/p><\/div>

“I really enjoy seeing the wonder in their eyes when they experience things that we have here that they don\u2019t have at home like clubs and sports, and the friendships they make. The happiness is contagious!”<\/em><\/p>
