An excellent opportunity to learn about a different culture

Review
Traveling abroad is an illuminating experience, but often a shallow one. Vacationers see only a glimpse of a nation's culture - one that is frequently distorted to appeal directly to them. Interac provides a chance for fuller engagement with a different land.
I had visited Japan years before, but I applied to Interac in hopes of seeing more of the nation than tourists typically experience. Through the program, I've been able to learn what it's like to live and work in the nation. I've met new people, learned new things, and have deeply enjoyed the chance to help students learn English.
Interac provides vital assistance in living in the country, especially for those with limited knowledge of the Japanese language. They help with housing and transportation, and teach some of the necessary basics for daily life.
Teaching with Interac has been an awesome experience, and I'd definitely recommend it to others!
