CASA Chile Testimonies

"At Radio Cooperativa, I had the privilege of working on the “Tarde Deportiva” sports radio show, presenting about basketball and tennis live on the air. I also learned a lot about the inner workings of a radio station through my time in the office and by observing live broadcasts in the production room. It was an excellent experience that I would recommend to anyone passionate about sports or the media".
Nathan Krackeler, Cornell University
