We had the opportunity to hear the other side of the story.. Border immersion trip #usdsoles
Tesol students participating in CA TESOL conference #tb #usdsoles
The power and value of an international experience come from how integrated a student decides to become within.The goal is to immerse and to go beyond exposure to cultures, ideas, and experiences, into a deep understanding of that culture. This will help you become better, more well-rounded people, as well as more attractive candidates for further education and employment. Get inspired, and then go abroad! I had an opportunity to visit JAPAN ð¯ðµ last summer and I had so much fun and learned so much.ð»
Hi there! My name is Shahd and I'm a second year TESOL student. I will be taking over the account to share some of my incredible experiences at SOLES. Stay tuned ðð»ââï¸
Dr. Fabionar from #usdsoles Department of Learning and Teaching being interviewed for USD Office Hours. Stay tuned, interview coming soon!
Had a great bus tour to many locations yesterday including the Giant's Causeway. It was a great way to wrap up our global study experience! . . . . #usdsoles #SOLESgrad #solesglobal
Yesterday the group traveled to Derry/Londonderry, took a walking tour and visited the Museum of Free Derry, where we learned a great deal more about The Troubles, particularly Bloody Sunday. It was a very powerful experience. Derry is also one of the last remaining walled cities - designed to separate Catholics and Protestants. . . . . #usdsoles #SOLESgrad #derry #londonderry #freederry #bloodysunday
Yesterday we visited Parliament and learned about Belfast's history through a more political lens. We spoke with some assembly members and were fortunate to ask them questions about their stance on education. It was a wonderful experience! Also, how incredible is this building?! ðð . . . . . #usdsoles #SOLESgrad #belfast #northernireland #stormont #parliament #education
Our black cab tour of Belfast took us to the Peace Wall, which stands as high as 45 feet tall and separates Catholic and Protestant communities even today. It was erected by the people to promote peace in Northern Ireland. We saw murals and memorials dedicated to those who fought and/or lost their lives during The Troubles. The wall remains today because according to our tour guide, "prevention (of violence) is better than a cure." It has been signed by many, including the Dalai Lama, Bill Clinton, Beyonce, and of course lots of students of SOLES â¤âð»â®ð . . . . . . #usdsoles #SOLESgrad #belfast #peacewall
