“The Best Delegate Program is one of the best summer programs I have been to. It provides the perfect balance of everything, from practice committees to trips to the city of Georgetown. I highly recommend this camp to anyone who wants to gain confidence and public speaking skills while having a great time.” — Ashka, 11th Grade, Florida
“I have learned more than ever in just one week. I learned and developed my Model UN skills to a level that exceeded even my own expectations. But apart from that, I absorbed so much culture, and learned so much from other’s experiences and stories, that I must say that this program not only contributed to shape me, but changed me forever. I will never forget the great moments I had during this trip and the great friendships I made.” — Gui, 9th Grade, Brazil
“360 feedback changed the way I think about self-improvement not only in MUN but also in my whole life, and the friends I met at Georgetown are some of the greatest people I’ve ever met.” — Khalil, 11th Grade, Canada
“I came here not really knowing what to expect. I was nervous because I had never been to DC. However, I soon found out that in my diplomacy fellow group I was surrounded by students who were very supportive, and who just like me represented a different part of the world. When I first arrived I was really shy about talking in public, I had no idea how Model UN worked in the US and I also couldn’t write a position or resolution paper. When this program finished I could do all of that and also I could manage my time a lot better. The new skills are skills that I will be able to apply to not only MUN, but also to life because thanks to the guest speakers that came to talk to us, I know that I can make a change in the world.” — Carmela, 11th Grade, Peru

“Our son and daughter attended the Best Delegate program this past summer and it was fantastic! It was quite engaging, informative and fun. The instructors are exceptional — they really care about the students, are experts on the Model UN process and format, and create a supportive and encouraging environment for the students. It was a wonderful experience and it improved my kids’ confidence in their public speaking abilities. This program is very professional and top notch!” — Renee, mother of Katie and Joey, California
