As they say, "When you travel, the more you see the more you know you haven't". We were lucky to have come across Global citizens as it has proved to be the right platform for virtual travel for kids and young adults.

The diverse topics covered has not only given wonderful travel experience to young minds, but has also given them an opportunity to know that travel is much more than sight seeing.

The sessions include cultural and historical importance of main cities. Apart from that, Interactive sessions, book and movie reviews, games, budgeting, role plays, cooking competition for foodies, music for music lovers, were some of the highlights of the programme. Would give a five star to Global Citizens of Tomorrow, looking forward to being a part of many more trips..

FAQs

Each virtual travel adventure is a 60-minute session.

Every batch is mindfully restricted to a maximum of 12-14 young travellers in order to maintain high interaction levels, with individual attention to each child’s progress.

Aspiring GCTians should be within the age bracket of 8 to 14 years. They must adhere to our ground rules, and be prepared for an adventure like no other!

Parents are welcome to attend our sessions, however off camera, as the focus is meant to be on the children developing their confidence and interpersonal skills in their own individual capacities. The last session is meant specially for the parents where they will be witness to the presentations that our young travellers have worked on with their team mates, to experience first-hand, the growth of their ward as a GCTian.

At the end of every weekly session, a detailed revision PDF of the session will be shared in the respective batch group, clearly indicating the topics covered and the activities engaged in during that particular session.

Each session of our Modules are carefully curated to engage young minds and propels them to push their performance limits in a seamless manner that keeps them excited for more unpredictably fun, team as well as individual activities.

During our orientation sessions we have a series of ice-breaking activities, unique introductions, establishing of GCT ground rules and a bird’s eye view of the exciting journey we are going to embark upon with our fellow young travellers and teammates from various
parts of the country/world

Notifications regarding all our international cultural exchange programs such as Family Beyond Borders , UN Peace day Debates etc will be duly conveyed in the GCT Club community. Each young traveller will receive a personal invitation of the same , as well , allowing for sufficient prep time.

Our young travellers are eligible to showcase their skills and talents at this unique international platform once they have successfully completed a minimum of two GCT Modules.

When a young traveller misses a session, a request for the recording of said session can be made and it will be shared. This recording, in addition to the revision PDF will assist in bringing them up to speed with their fellow travellers and ready for the next session.

A unique certificate/memorabilia that marks various high points in their 11 week long virtual journey with GCT, is presented to every young traveller upon successful completion of each module.
