Testimonials
“Coming to the United States as a teacher assistant has unveiled to me the beauty of the world, introducing me to places I never imagined, each of which has left an indelible mark on my heart.”
Miriam Aazaier Cué
“Visiting NASA in Houston, Texas was an unforgettable experience that fulfilled my dream as a Science Teacher of 20 years. Meeting astronaut Colonel Rex J. Walheim was a surreal moment that reignited my passion for space exploration. This once-in-a-lifetime encounter inspired me to share my excitement with students both in the United States and the Philippines. Truly, dreams do come true.”
Bernadeth Araja
“I am now living an American Dream that everyone is wishing for! This is a great opportunity for me to learn and share knowledge with my pupils, co teachers and new found friends here in USA. I already got the chance to travel to New York and witness the beauty and history of it! I visited every tourist spot that I thought was impossible to go to! I’m now looking forward for more adventures that life has to offer this 2025!”
Hannah Arroyo
“The opportunity to make a meaningful impact on my students’ learning and growth is amazing. Seeing them develop confidence in their abilities, especially those who struggle, has been incredibly rewarding. Moments like when a student finally grasps a concept they’ve been working hard on or when they independently use coping strategies bring me the most joy.”
Aileen Sayson
“It still feels surreal to be given the privilege to teach in California for a second time as a J1 visa holder. I am blessed to be placed in my current school, where I feel welcomed and supported. This motivates me to strive harder to be better at teaching. Being in a positive and healthy environment brings so much joy to me as I get along well with my colleagues in the school.”
