What a Service-Learning Language Trip Looks Like

These school language tours abroad provide an unforgettable and unique cultural and educational experience in fascinating and historic locations. To make the most of school language trips, students use their new language skills to mentor, translate, and help care for children, orphans, and a variety of people in need. After an immersion in language classes, dances, and other cultural experiences, students will then teach English to local orphaned children or partake in a school immersion program in the local community.

 

The Benefits of Language and Service Trips Abroad

The cognitive benefits that stem from language service-learning are quite extensive. Research suggests that students who are engaged in positive service-learning responsibilities are inclined to:

• Demonstrate an ongoing excelling performance on tests

• Demonstrate higher levels of self-esteem

• Demonstrate an individual sense of purpose

• Demonstrate a greater connection with their community

• Demonstrate a greater interest in graduating high school and college
