Yes, I recommend this program

Highly Recommend GlobalLife

Our daughter took a gap year immediately after high school and had the opportunity to live both in Central America as well as Spain. She knew she wanted to go to a Spanish speaking country but didn't have a specific program in mind. Before finding Stashia, we found the process a bit overwhelming as there were so many different gap year programs to choose from. Stashia did an excellent job of really identifying what our daughter was looking for in a program and then provided several different options from which she could choose. Stashia was a wealth of knowledge and was able to provide us with the confidence our daughter needed in choosing a program and both programs ended up being a great fit for her. We can't thank Stashia enough for helping ensure our daughter found two programs that she really enjoyed and giving us the peace of mind that she was in good hands as she traveled abroad after completing high school. We highly recommend working with Stashia. You will not be disappointed.

Gratitude for Stashia!!

Stashia has been an integral part of my daughter’s transformative experience this year! She has helped us immensely in finding and building a meaningful gap year. Stashia is genuinely invested in the lives of those she assists. I can tell it’s a joy for her to help her students discover the best gap year programs for them.
Even after finalizing the programs, she sets up a pre-departure meeting with us to go over things to know and to prepare for the time away from home. Throughout the gap year, she continues to check in not only to see how my daughter is doing personally but also to understand her experience with the program for future recommendations.
Stashia has felt like part of the family, invested in my daughter’s next step after high school. She recognizes the benefits of a gap year and goes above and beyond to share these benefits and create a transformative experience for her students.

Highly recommend

Stashia has been immensely helpful in planning my gap year. From being extremely quick with communication to resolving issues, Stashia has been there every step of the way. She makes a genuine effort to understand my interests and has helped me plan a year guided to meet my goals. Whenever I have a question or need to talk on a meeting/call, Stashia is quick to respond. She is knowledgeable about available programs and dedicated to planning your best year possible. I would highly recommend Stashia and GlobalLife Consulting to anyone who asks.

GlobalLife has been great!

Stashia at GlobalLife Education Consulting was extremely beneficial to us in putting together a gap year plan for our son. After covid interrupted high school, our son wanted to take some time away from academics to figure out his next steps. Stashia did a great job asking questions to identify his interests and needs, and she recommended several programs for us to look at. She was also very helpful with making introductions to program leaders and setting up meetings to learn more about the offerings. Stashia is kind, and thorough, and she is an excellent resource when planning a gap year.
