IVIE - Inspired Vision International Education
IVIE was founded by 2 University of Pennsylvania graduates – one with education background and one with business background; one from the US and one from China. Both of us have experienced and benefited from studying in multicultural learning environments. In 2012, we decided to use our backgrounds to create programs that combine education and cultural exchange with real life international experiences for young students. We believe deeply that it is important for young students to be exposed to different cultures and participate in global opportunities for growth.
Our first program, the US-China Little Cultural Ambassador Summer Program, took place in 2013 in Beijing. Since the launch of our first program, we have continued to expand our portfolio to add additional programs, including:
US-China Little Cultural Ambassador Summer Program – IVIE brings American students and families to Beijing during the summer for Chinese language learning, cultural exchange and to experience life in China.
High School English Academic Training Camp – IVIE brings Chinese high school students to the University of Pennsylvania to experience academic and campus life in the US. IVIE works with Beijing schools to offer this program to local students.
Language Teacher-intern Training Program – IVIE brings Chinese young educators to the US to get experience in the American school system. IVIE works with the Austin Independent School District to provide actual in-classroom teaching experience to these intern teachers.
In 2016, we will be launching two more new programs to catering to more students of different ages.
Our goal is to bring high quality, memorable and fun international learning opportunities and experience to American and Chinese students through the programs we create and run.
