My experience has been the best in my life for now. It was my first time traveling out of my country and I always used to think that my first flight it would be to another country but no USA, I think this has been my third or fourth option always. Even though, everything just happened, I got my application really well with this company and I noticed that they are so strict about every information of you because the USA laws and etc, and that’s really great because it’s something that makes you feel trustworthy. Well, I got into USA so scared because I knew english but it was terrible, my native language is spanish, so my grammar and vocabulary (let’s not talk about the fluency, that was the worst) in english made me feel ashamed about it, I was terrified of saying any word in english, but at the end I got used to the listening and speaking of people around me, and they helped me with that situation too. I’m comfortable about the skills that I have to handle this. About the camp, it was AMAZING for me. It was a camp for children with special needs, there were children with autism, attention deficit, oppositional defiant disorder (odd) and others that got me really excited because I like the psychology stuff, I have a degree in psychology and I learnt so much like into practices with these kids and at the end some of them ended of loving me and liked to hanging out with me as someone that they really trusted for saying anything. Those children changed my life, seriously, because you never imagined how harsh could be for them to get a conversation with someone, or how to treat people properly to make them your friends, or how to behave well, like they’re processing so much in their minds that got them frustrated about it, and that could bring them down into a meltdown or something worst. Working with these children it isn’t an assignment for everyone, just people that have worked with these cases or have lived this and really love working with children could handle it because they need special attention and require infinite patience to deal with it. At the end, this was really worth it, I learnt a lot about them like prioritize what you really want in life and what’s important for you in life, they taught me that and I’m really thankful for it, and also I ended of loving them, they stole part of my heart for a long time. Also, I met another staffs from other countries. This was a really funny and lovely part because there were people from Brasil, England, USA, Ireland, Scotland, India, Pakistan that just talked in english because it was their first language or it was just the language that they used to use for speaking around there, and they were spanish there, and they were learning from the latins ones. The Latin people or the people that speaks spanish that I met there were THE BEST. Each person, each inner proud of their countries made me fell in love with each culture that they shared with me, people from Dominican Republic, Mexico, Chile, Colombia, España, Honduras and Bolivia made me feel as part of a big family, we always were a great support on each other and always made each moment unforgettable. They will always be in my heart and mind. At the end, I have no regrets about everything that I sacrificed to make this possible. Infinity thanks to my agency Calex in Dominican Republic and InterExchange for being part of my greatest adventure of the year 2022.

I’m so happy about Inter exchange work, you answers were always in the best way you could, and you helped me a lot all the time, the only thing I was not very happy with is the specific camp. I think for us is very important to know the real job we will do. For example, I was told my job wouldn’t be as hard, and they don’t have the equipment to make it easy of even possible. The schedule at night was very hard to handle because of the special need to deal with, a lot of days without sleeping, cleaning clothes, sheets and people; working all night to prepare what the lead counselor supposed to do, etc. I think been specific about ages and needs of the campers could help, during my interview they never told me about ages of weight and I got hurt my back very bad. Everyone took good care of me, but it was a hard job to do without good help or equipment, as I mentioned before. Sometimes the people on charge was stressed and they used to yell a lot to us, even if we were doing a good job; trying to make us work more and more and more with some violent language. At the end just one American counselor stayed, all of the other ones quit because the job was hard and they said the pay was unfair. Anyway, I learned a lot and I appreciate it, I hope I can go to another camp experience soon.

it was amazing to work with interexchange. they helped me out about everything, to find a great place to work. thank you being a great team. my best summer ever!!!

It was good, not perfect but it was okay everything I needed I got, it like the most important thing DS-2019 form. Liked the way of control you had. Doing check in every month even though the test it was long and with the same information every month.

It was ok I guess I would like a lil more help about explaining taxes, social security and stuff. Cause I never got mine and that’s weird.

Interexchange as a company we’re extremely helpful. They were so detailed in everything they needed off me and always provided amazing help services. I will kepe this review about Interexchange and not about the camp as they would be two very different scores

Interexchange helped me a lot as i was new to this program and i didn't have any idea about summer camp and other applications. They helped to understand health insurance fees and other applications like visa interview and useful documents for visa application. i really appreciate their efforts.

On my trip to a camp with this program I met many people, landscapes, cities, etc. It was a wonderful experience to start traveling alone, although not everything is always good in my camp, there were problems, but it was with girls outside of me, but they affected other people, after work came the most beautiful tourism of my life thanks interchange
