  • I generally liked how enthusiastic they were to make the interns feel comfortable in a new environment and how their passion for teaching and helping others genuinely inspires me as a person to do the same. I’ve seen major improvements, in terms of being responsive and out going over the short span of four weeks and it was only to the efforts made by our program leads to build a safe and comfortable environment.

    Navneet, 16

    UAE Based Student

  • I am thankful for this opportunity because I was able to talk to a lot of people who weren't in my school, area, or country. I was assigned to different projects, which slowly got more challenging. However, with all the communication and teamwork that the other members did with me, we were able to complete them on time. I am so grateful for the experience that was brought to me and I would love to use the information and skills I've learned for my career in the future.

  • The highlight of my program I think it’s when I was the leader of one of the project week but people weren’t showing up however two of my teammates despite the issues they still joined and helped me to complete my presentation! As someone who work effectively by myself, I realized the value of having good teammates!

  • I really enjoyed being able to interact, though virtually with people of different cultures, backgrounds, experiences and such. I also enjoyed the very ""real"" feedback given to us by the employer, though it may have been tough. I enjoyed having the meetings with my group members as we discussed something to do with a country we're not from. I found these really enjoyable."
