"I'd say it was the best choice I ever made to come to ASHTON COLLEGE if you could come too."

Guilherme Ferrari Dos Santos

Well when I arrived at school I was extremely happy to have someone who also spoke the same language as my in the Portuguese case, but as the days went on I saw that I did not have to worry about speaking Portuguese because the staff are very capable and help you in any way so that you can feel as comfortable as possible even if you are in another country and speaking another language.
in a short time I saw my English evolve abruptly from basic to the level that I find today, step by step with the help of Aston College, I managed to reach my goal and improve my English.
