 The Work &
Travel Program is the optimal choice for college students who would like to
learn English while earning money. For an entire summer, participants work in
an American restaurant, amusement park or company in the United States. In
order to improve students’ English-speaking abilities, students will be placed
in jobs that give them maximum exposure to an English-speaking environment. For
students who are on a budget but are serious about traveling and abroad and
learning English, the Work & Travel Program is the choice for them.
