To be honest it is better than I expected. At first I was a little scared of going as I didn’t know anyone there and didn’t know if I would like my work. Turns out that I met great people and my co-workers are like a 2nd family to me. - N.(Canadian) Awsome experience! The kids are wonderful and love learning.
