My year at UCR Extension was everything I expected and more. The mentoring I received from the TESOL program staff and instructors was invaluable, and will serve me well a I begin my teaching career abroad. The Program also provides opportunities to meet and interact with students from around the world, which broadened my perspective and will make me a more effective teacher.
