Both University of Hawaii (UH) students and non-UH students from ALL ISLANDS take our courses, making the classroom experience interesting, practical, and unforgettable.

Here's what some students have said:
Definitely the best class I've had.
  
I like having classes with those from various languages and cultures. I'm learning so much from them!
  
The role plays taught me that just because I know it, doesn't mean I can do it.  I'd rather make the mistakes in the classroom than in the real world.
  
We not only got to watch live interpreting, but I was introduced to a job that gave me  real-world experience. What an opportunity!
  
I enjoyed our discussions after class, in the CITS office with other students. The teachers are so personable.
