testimony internship abroad

Hello Sandrine,
I was placed at an internship in a nursery school in East London last year? I don’t know if you remember me but I wanted to thank you for helping me get such a great experience. I absolutely loved working for Chestnut and wish I still could! I recommended your program to a few people and hopefully they’ll be in touch. I wanted to know if you had any other programs that I might partake in? I have currently applied to Kingston University but would love to see if I could find a program to sponsor a work permit. I had such a good time and really learned so much and would love to pursue a career in the UK as Nursery Nurse. Anyway, I just thought I would ask because it was such a nice experience through your company.

Best Wishes and Thank you,
Caroline P, American applicant
