Great course with lots of helpful information. It is definitely geared towards international health students, however I have found it to be very informative as a language student.

Very informative course for those who are considering overseas travel for work, or extended stay. Also serves as a great reference for those who are already seasoned travelers.

Overall great. However, judging by the discussion forums, most of the students are located in various places in the world outside of just the U.S.A. Therefore, it might be worth considering making the course contents more international or even providing some relevant materials for those outside of the U.S rather than consistently using the U.S. systems as prime examples. I realize this may be a difficult thing to do with any sense of overall equality, but it may be worth considering for future classes.

Overall a very good course. As an "experienced" multilingual traveler, picked up on a few things, got a good refresher for other elements and will have a (slightly) different approach to traveling and working abroad. The personal tales brought back some memories of my own. No feedback from course instructors or fellow students, which was a bit disappointing. As such, I did not do the honors component as it would only be valuable if somebody would comment on it.

Curso interesante, sobre todo para aquellos que estamos inmersos en la educación internacional. Muchas de las experiencias compartidas en el curso son parte de mis propias experiencias. Muy importante los temas de salud, bienestar y seguridad y sobre todo las cuestiones éticas. Me hubiera gustado también ver aspectos relacionados con los viajes de estudiantes en grupo con fines de investigación o cursos electivos.

The content was great, but the main lecturer didn't speak with appropriate feeling. If she could improve her vocal quality, I think it would be easier for students to focus. Still, she was decent, and overall I was quite satisfied with everything.

The course is definitely good for a first-time traveller outside the USA, but as I have lived in 10 countries and worked in around 20 more ina 35-year timespan, I learned little new information from this course. It was fun taking it though.

Our instructor has been very specific and I like the way she explains everything. The week 5 module is not boring the presentation has been very creative. Thank you Hopkins University! :D

The course was pretty interesting and useful, just a bit "basic" some times (good to have the possibility to skip those parts) and Johns Hopkins' student-focused in some sections.
