I would definitely recommend this

I would definitely recommend this program to friends, family and peers. CIEE program in Amman has been a great place to learn Arabic Language and Colloquial Jordanian Dialect. It has also giving me the opportunity to experience and learn not only from text and classes but from Jordanian people and the local culture which is beautifully diverse. The excursions and site visits provided by experienced staff and knowledgeable guides about history of the Jordan really complimented our learning process and immersion into Jordanian culture. The whole CIEE team from staff to professors conduct themselves very professionally and are student oriented 100 percent. I really love and appreciate this great learning experience and I thank everyone in CIEE for helping me grow as a human being in this beautiful and special learning journey.

The course work was intensive

The course work was intensive but very useful. It was truly amazing to watch my language skills develop so quickly. I would recommend CIEE to anyone looking to solidify and expand their language comprehension and have a rare global educational experience.

The program is handled very efficiently

The program is handled very efficiently and has the best staff who truly are there for optimizing your experience abroad. The cost may be high, but between the quality of the staff and instructors, and also program excursions, it is well worth the cost.

Enjoyed the program

I would because I really enjoyed the classes and on site staff, they did a great job helping us and providing opportunities, but I would also warn them about the cost and how with CIEE it's difficult to find inside scholarships.
