[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I studied in Italy. I assume you're looking for your kid. The program that you choose matters just as much as where you go. I was in an execellent program through my college with other kids from my college that took us on many weekend trips. Choose a program where your kid goes with a group of students and lives with the students.. I think it's better then staying with a family, because you don't know if you'll get an involved family.[/quote] I disagree. If you are doing a foreign language you will want immersion, which means living with a host family. Yes, a lot of them are not great, but it's an experience. If you stay with other students (like from a college study abroad program) you will all speak English among yourselves. If you have an option to stay with foreign students (from the host country, like in an apartment or dorm) that could also be good provided they don't also speak English. [/quote]
