All-American Model UNReviews on record for allamericanmun.com

I truly cannot recommend any of the All-American MUN programs enough. Frank is an excellent coach and mentor, and he believes strongly in investing in the development of all his students. These programs give you the opportunity to compete internationally with a world class team, make invaluable connections, gain real international relations knowledge, and improve dramatically as a MUN delegate on all fronts. All-American inspires a drive for excellence that extends far beyond MUN and prepares you with the skills and confidence to achieve.

Frank was an amazing coach who helped create a sense of community within the team. The teammates with whom I competed are still some of my closest friends -- even four or five years after our graduation. With Frank's coaching and my teammates' guidance, I improved dramatically as a public speaker and MUN delegate, and continue to use my MUN skills in professional settings.

The All American programs are well structured to build students’ analytical, oratorical, and problem solving skills. They also gain international relations knowledge, meet like minded-peers from around the world, and learn from the cultures they visit on international delegations. Frank is a dedicated and trustworthy program administrator.

I joined All-American in the sping of my junior year of high school. Coming from a small suburban high school from Long Island, NY, the competitive Model UN experiences that I had were minimal and lackluster in terms of quality. Under Frank's guidance, both at the Diplomacy Academy and each trip I had taken with the team, I became a completely different delegate and student. The following year, my senior year of high school, I was accepted into American University's School of International Service. I became part of their Model UN team, which is now ranked #2 in North America. However, All-American is greater than the academic prestige and the awards. Through the program, I have made invaluable connections with working alumni in a wide variety of fields as well as lifelong friends. I cannot stress enough how much I truly adore this program and how much it has done for me. Frank has created something truly very special with All American.

All American is the best investment I made in my high school development. It provided me with the opportunity to attend more Model UN conferences, travel the world, and meet some of my closest friends. My first experience with All American was in the US travel team in 2018. I earned my first Best Delegate award in my Sophomore year at NAIMUN thanks to All American's intense training and preparation. I attended 3 more programs with All American, and I would have attended more if it was not for the pandemic. Frank, the program director, is the best when it comes to training and coaching delegates. Every program is run very professionally. Before All American, I had attended other Model UN programs, but I did not notice many changes in my performance. All American is different because it has smaller groups, and training is more personally tailored to each delegate's needs. Some of my friends were outstanding GA delegates, and I saw them grow and improve at All American in their own way. I received particular training for crisis committees, and I went on to gavel 6 times in my high school career. All American gave me a lot to talk about in my college application, and it took the main spot in my resume. Now I study International Relations at the University of St Andrews in the UK. I have been invited to chair at several conferences, and I have interned in international organizations. Whenever someone asks me what prepared me the most for real-world conferences, I always say it was the simulations, especially those I attended with All American. Besides that, All American gave me a group of friends with similar interests that I could not have found anywhere else. I have been able to stay in touch with many of my All American friends, and we constantly trade advice about careers and schools. When one of my friends landed an internship at an embassy, she gave me key advice for my first similar internship. I also reach out to my friends who are now at schools like Columbia or American University for peer review and academic advice. I can only thank All American for this!

Frank and his mentorship helped shape me into the successful college student that I am today. Working with him not only taught me valuable academic skills (public speaking, formal writing, debate & argumentation, research), but also gave me a sense of confidence that I didn't have before. The friends I made traveling with All-American are some of the people who are truly closest to me in my life, even after I graduated: that tight-knit community is something Frank personally invests time and resources into. He knows the value of those relationships. That's what makes him a great coach.

All American MUN is a great organization. I had amazing experiences on programs to Boston, Budapest, Lisbon, and Madrid which expanded my worldview and expanded my leadership abilities.
