Volunteering to help teach English at the Kindergarten transformed my study abroad experience. By immersing myself in Italian culture, I was able to learn so much more than being in the classroom. Through this experience I also got to shadow the school’s speech pathologist. In doing this, I got to compare the American and Italian techniques in the profession. I believe that through volunteering any person with any major can enhance what they are studying, and grow much more connected to the community.
