Access Program Closing Ceremony

The Access group started in 2010, its goal is to provide with the adequate tools to succeed in life. Along with their English Language instruction, they received supplementary lessons focused on expanding their cultural knowledge and leadership skills.

Having completed their two-year program, they were ready to spread their wings and fly on their own. We have to say that we are sorry to let them go; bight, committed and responsible kids.

Caitlin Cetola, honored us with her presence during the closing ceremony; it was touching one, which highlighted the group´s achievements and activities. Theatrical performances, an adaptation of Charles Dicken´s “A Christmas Carol” performed at a Care Center for HIV Children were among their stunning and passion filled acting and dancing did more than just entertain their special audience.

Jackson Pollock and Andy Warhol were also present in their art lessons; this could be seen at the art exhibition. The thankful words from the mother of one of the students marked the ceremony.

We thank once more to all the people who contributed to the success of this project.


International EducationWeek 2011

As every year we celebrated the International Education Week this 2011 celebration was highlighted by the Roof Roock, band and dance contest; the online presentation of University of Notre Dame and the chat with De Paul University. Additionally EducationUSA hosted the Inaugural Virtual College Fair, as well as the popular spelling bee and debate contest.

Students from all levels had fun participating in the spelling bee contest and the advanced level ones, had a good chance to exercise the power of words using a variety of examples and a wide range of vocabulary to convey their ideas.
Regarding the various presentations we had, attendants got the best of them by having the chance to ask specific inquiries related to higher studies in the United States, the topics ranged from under graduate studies, scholarships to English Language Studies.

The main event took place o n Friday, the selected bands and choreography groups did their best to win the first place. It was an energizing night filled with god music and impressive dace moves. Finally the winning contestants were given a public ovation.

It was an exciting, interesting and rewarding week. We have set our expectations high for the coming IEW 2012.
