Dr. Jolly, GA
Doc Jolly is a theatre arts teacher from Georgia. He has been traveling with students since 2001.
“I’ve been traveling with students for over 20 years. I love sharing my passion for languages, and the arts. I find it inspiring to watch students discover new places, cultures and friendships, but more importantly to witness their personal growth, self-confidence, maturity and seeing them discover who they want to become. These programs really are more than just a 2-3 week experience, but one that will impact and stay with them for a lifetime.”

Ellen, CT
Ellen is an educator from Connecticut and has been leading educational travel programs for 25 years.
“To travel abroad with students I am able to get a glimpse into the future. I am able to see how travel changes a young person. It gives them a deeper level of cultural appreciation. They learn to appreciate similarities and differences. Travel also encourages students to become independent and responsible young adults.”
Carley, OH
Carley is a Spanish teacher from Ohio. She has been traveling with students since 2005.
“As a Spanish teacher, I believe there is no better classroom than the world itself. When students have the opportunity to see, practice, and experience what they’ve learned about in the traditional classroom, it reinforces their thirst for wanting to learn more.

Autumn, GA
Autumn is a music teacher from Georgia. She has been traveling with students since 2004.
“Over the course of a few weeks, each group bonds over shared, new experiences and becomes a unique and tight-knit family. I love watching them expand their worldview and take it all in. Perhaps the most important lesson of all is that, ‘different is not bad, it’s just different.’
Mary, IA
Mary is a teacher from Iowa, and has traveled with students to 6 continents over the past 25 years.
“I have witnessed first-hand how traveling at a young age can provide not only an unforgettable adventure but a lifetime of memories and experiences. It prepares students for success in a globalized world, builds confidence and independence, and gives them a competitive edge once they leave high school and prepare for their future.
