Information on Study Abroad for Educators
Dear Educators - Thank you for your interest in Abbey Road Programs! As you already understand, summer immersion, study abroad and other pre-college programs are very important for a high school student's academic and personal development.
This page serves as a resource for all educators (teachers and administrators) who wish to learn more about Abbey Road and about study abroad in general. Please call or email us anytime if we can answer any questions. Best regards,
Dr. Arthur Kian, Managing Director
Rhia Kilpatrick, Academic Coordinator
Customized Trips
Abbey Road offers completely personalized trips to anywhere in the United States and Europe!
We understand that no two schools or groups are identical as their priorities and budgets will vary.
Based on your groups interests we will shape a tour with all accommodations ( flight, hotel and meals)
to suit your needs. One of our education professionals will work side-by-side with you to create a trip
that you and your students will love! Unlike other travel companies that will combine your tour with
other schools, our tours are completely customized and private. The Abbey Road Staff is flexible and
willing to accommodate. If you are interested in organizing a Spring Break or a Summer trip for your
class please contact Abbey Road via e-mail at
info@goabbeyroad.com or by phone at (888) 462-2239.
Request Brochures & Posters
Please let us know if you would like to receive a packet of Abbey Road brochures and/or posters. Our 52-page, full color brochure highlights all of our summer programs. The 11x17 full color poster can be displayed in classrooms and college planning lounges.
To receive a packet, please send an email with your name, title, school, address and number of brochures/posters needed to: info@goabbeyroad.com.
Promote Study Abroad at Your School
There are many ways to promote study abroad at your school or in your classroom, especially for foreign languages, history, studio art, music and all humanities in general:
Tell Your Students!
Many students do not even know about study abroad options available to them. A simple presentation by a teacher explaining what study abroad is, the benefits to a student's academic development and college application, as well as the fun, adventurous, eye-opening experiences possible can inspire students to explore their options.
Make It a Class Project
Assign your students the fun homework project of researching study abroad options for high school students. Encourage them to use the internet to explore all the numerous and innovative programs available.
Organize a Study Abroad Fair
Many schools organize very popular fairs at their schools, inviting dozens of independent programs to have booths where students and parents can walk around to meet representatives first hand. Some of the best fairs partner with other schools to host larger events, speaker panels and personal counseling sessions.
Organize an Abbey Road Presentation
If you would like to have an Abbey Road staff member come to your class or school to talk about language immersion, study abroad and the Abbey Road experience, please contact us to make arrangements.
