I am a former student on SIT in Sandanona. I cannot say enough about my experiences at SIT between February and August of 1967. It is without doubt, the highlight of my life. The people i met and the frienships i forged shall remain with all the days of my life. A totally amazing and unforgettable experience bar none.

I was an international student doing the TOEFL course in 1979. It was a fantastic experience which I recall to this day. The teaching was great and helped me not only achieve an excellent level of English, but also to grow as an individual and to gain self-confidence. The atmosphere was friendly and fun. Interacting with people from many parts of the world made me understand and accept other cultures, which is an asset I have cherished all these years.
