"My exchange program sowed the seed of school counseling in me, helping me connect globally and bring hope to many students."

"My experience helped broaden my knowledge in getting to learn new trends in education, learn the culture of the United States, and that of other educators from different countries. I am a better version of myself than when I left the shores of Ghana."

"For me, being a Fulbright Teacher goes beyond acquiring pedagogical strategies or attending academic seminars. It is about fostering global understanding through education and promoting cultural exchange within our teaching practices."

"Fulbright made me think globally. It impacted the way I viewed things before. Now I believe there are many right ways to do things, not just the one I know."
