One To World's Global Classroom program brings the world into New York City schools!

Global Classroom expands New York City students' and teachers' knowledge of other countries and global issues by sending trained international students and scholars into city schools to share real-life perspectives on their home countries and cultures. Through Global Classroom, international students and scholars learn about the United States by gaining an inside perspective on New York City schools and engaging in meaningful dialogue with schoolchildren and teachers. These classroom-based interactions reduce the potential for misunderstanding and conflict based on racial, ethnic, and cultural differences.

Global Classroom speakers are invited to work with elementary, middle and high schools in the greater New York City area, speaking to groups of students, teachers, or administrators. Curriculum-related presentation topics range from a cultural introduction to the speaker's country, to special topics relating to stereotypes, culture shock, or the speaker's academic discipline.

Discover the world with One To World's Global Classroom. You can invite a Global Classroom speaker from almost any country to visit your class. Their lively presentation will be the next best thing to a plane ticket from your school to anywhere in the world.
