EF One on One

Choosing the right travel partner: A conversation between teachers

 

EF One on One is a conversation series between Group Leaders. A first-time Group Leader sits down with a teacher who’s led many tours to talk about their experiences and thoughts on educational travel with EF.

You’re committed. You’ve told yourself that it’s happening. You’re doing it. You’re going to lead students abroad. There’s only one thing left to do: Choose a travel partner. Scratch that. Choose the right travel partner.

But if you’re a first time Group Leader like Brian J. or Mary Kate M., how do you pick between educational student travel companies? Sitting down with teachers who’ve been doing it for years is a great place to start.

This video features Bryan K. and Rhonda G., who have been traveling for many years. And they’ve led a lot of tours. Often with EF, but not always. They’ve comparison shopped with other educational student travel companies in the past. But in the end, they’ve come back to EF for a variety of reasons.

Your reasons for choosing a travel partner may vary. Maybe it’s finding a company with a dedication to education. Or one with a network of employees all over the world. Or a company that will personally work with you on every little detail. Or one that will make sure you and your students get a great price. Or maybe you just want to feel comfortable with the people you’re working with. (We’re probably a little biased, but we happen to know one that checks all those boxes.)

Whatever your reason, listening to these seasoned Group Leaders can help you make a decision you’ll feel great.
