Cordell Hull Foundation for International Education Manhattan, New York 10111

"My wife and I both participated as visiting teachers for two years, between 2012 and 2014, under the J1 visa status sponsored by Cordell Hull. The Foundation and, particularly, Mrs Mason efficiently provided us and our schools with great assistance and guidance throughout the whole process. She was always available to answer our questions and support us with any possible bumps that we found in the road. Furthermore, Cordell Hull offered an extremely helpful orientation session on cultural and practical aspects about living in the United States. All in all, we will be eternally grateful for the opportunity that the Foundation gave us to live this highly recommended experience."

"Nice words in the orientation session but my J1 visa was cancelled by Cordell Hull at the request of the World Languages Director in Detroit Public Schools Community District -Viviana Muriel de Bonafede- before my evaluation was complete and in spite of the fact that other principals in the district were ready to hire me for the next academic year."

"As visiting teacher from Spain, I am participating in a cultural exchange program with a J-1 visa sponsored by the Cordell Hull Foundation. My experience with CHF has been highly positive. The process to get the visa was really smooth, as everything is very clearly detailed in their web site. And whenever I had a question, there was always someone on the other end of the line ready to help. The orientation was very enlightening and they really walk you through all the possible scenarios and situations you may encounter in a new country/culture. And communication is always fast, informative and efficient. I am truly grateful and thankful for all the support and advice they have given me."

"I have had a chance to obtain J1 visa with CHF for over three years.I would like state that the service provided for the clients[educators was great]. Every initial and end of school academic year educators were given pretty good updates on how to make an application via steps.The President Marianne was positive and pro educators .She did facilitate my visa application on time with a quick walk through.Cheers to CHF!"

"I have come to the USA through Cordell Hull Foundation as part of the Spanish Visiting Program and the communication and support with them was great. We were given an orientation in Spanish which was very helpful. Without their help, this wonderful teaching experience wouldn't have been possible. All the materials and explanatory videos were in our mother tongue, which is something I appreciate."
