TESTIMONIALS & REVIEWS

“Short-term hosting is so ideal for my family. We will never be able to travel abroad, so what better way to introduce culture than to host a student in the summer.”

Aiden Family

Kansas City
“If I had to choose two things from this experience they would be, the opportunity of living with a family whose culture is so different to mine, and feeling I was part of it and making such good friends such as my "sister," Jenna."

Reyes G.

Spanish, International Student
“All of my life I have wanted to visit Italy and discover what it was like for my family
to live there in the 1800’s-1900’s. When I was awarded the AILI Scholarship I was
beyond excited because this meant my curiosity would be satisfied.”

Gabriella S.

 2019, AILI Scholarship Recipient
