Testimonials
“I am very grateful to the entire staff for all the work you do to make our trips so wonderful. This is a life-changing experience for my students—one that they will always remember. Your attention to details, your understanding of what teachers & students need, and your knowledge of France combine to make each trip perfect!” -Traveled with VIE repeatedly since 1989
-Organizing Teacher, WI
“I learned a lot about places far from home, a skill particularly important to me as I prepare to go away to college. Being around French teens also taught me a lot about modern French language. I learned to have much more confidence in my abilities to speak French.”
-Student, MA
"My French family was wonderful. They included me in their daily life and showed me everything they could about French life. They helped me with my French, and I learned a lot."
-Student, OK
“I definitely left France with a better understanding of the language. Also I have a new outlook on cultures other than my own. I think the family stay is where I learned the most.”
-Student, MN
"The family stay was by far the best part of the trip. I loved being a part of a real family rather than just a tourist. I wish it could have lasted forever!!"
-Student, WI
"The host families were very warm and welcoming. My students continue to correspond with them and two are saving their money to return this summer! As we hoped, this was the best part of the trip."
