For my part, few experiences have given me

greater satisfaction. I was enormously enriched

by what I learned of my student’s culture.

— volunteer tutor

My tutor helped me understand so much—not

only about English, but also about life in the U.S.

— student (Japan)

If I didn’t have to earn a living, I would be much

happier devoting my entire time to English in

Action.

— volunteer tutor

It is a great organization, giving us the

opportunity to learn English and get

acquainted with American culture.

— student (China)

The relaxed atmosphere and the one-to-one

conversations have helped me greatly. I thank

you for the opportunity you have given me to

improve my English.

— student (Russia)
