Interest in International Experience Building Opportunities, any suggestions?

[jfrodriguez2021]

Hi! I am currently a senior studying Music with a discipline in Voice Performance and am pursuing Speech-Language Pathology as my Graduate Degree path. I have started the process of gaining experience/education (shadowing with a faculty member of the SLP department who specializes in treating vocal disorders at my University's clinic, reaching out to local ENT offices for further shadowing opportunities, attending webinars, reading published research papers) to help get myself into this track as quickly as possible. I am also preparing myself to take the necessary post-grad leveling/transition courses necessary to supplement missing coursework. 

That being said, it is safe to say that my efforts have not had enough time in development to make me a competitive grad school applicant for this upcoming academic year (2022-23) or even the next, realistically. One thing I did intend to do when entering college, however, was travel abroad post-undergrad (Gap Year) for internship/work experience to better help prepare me for the field I was going into for Grad School and I believe this is still a viable option with SLP in mind! 

I was wondering if anyone on the forum is aware of any international/abroad opportunities such as teaching/clinical jobs, unpaid/paid internships or anything of that nature that would aid a student in my position in the process of strengthening their experience to help them become more competitive come application time? Whether from your own experience with any of these opportunities or the experience of another, I would be grateful for any and all possible feedback on this topic as this is all still rather new to me but I am trying to explore as many options as I can! 

Side Note: Only because this info could be relevant to the topic of international work, I do have fluency in English/Spanish, have taken courses in Italian/German and am planning to begin learning Mandarin at the start of 2022. 

Again, thank you for any advice/assistance you can offer with this topic! :)))
