Hello - The Council on International Education Exchange (CIEE) seeks volunteer host families for several outstanding students requesting Massachusetts. CIEE is the visa sponsor and provides medical insurance as well as in-community and regional support to hosts and students. Students have their own spending money and will attend public high school for the 2015-2016 school year. Our students speak good English and are well-screened. Please help by sharing this information with your contacts. For more information, please email CIEE Regional Director, Loretta Ascencio at lascencio@ciee.org. Thank you!

Mathilda is a 17 year old girl from ITALY. I love the English language and in particular the modern English spoken in the U.S. because it’s very expressive. Also I love the U.S.A. and I want to learn its way of life and culture. I enjoy going to school, and I want to try a different system of it, giving my best. I like all kinds of sports, especially dancing. I also am a reader and like to travel. I would like to thank you in advance for the hospitality you will offer me during this experience I honestly can’t wait to live.

Ludovico is an 18 year old boy from ITALY. Hi! I live in a little city in the north of Italy. I love meeting new people and I am an ambitious guy. For many years I practiced basketball. I follow the NBA championship and I liked to collect the gadgets of the players and get to know their personal stories. For three years, I have practiced karate and it is a sport that has strengthened me both physically and mentally. I spend my free time with my friends, we are almost all DJs then we like to play and we like to see people enjoying themselves when they dance. I want to learn English very well, and I think the only way to do this, is living for some months abroad, in an experience of everyday life.
