"It is been a roller coaster experience. But In the end all problem had been solved, a big shout out to Yaroslav Akimov"

Tsz kwan Wong, student from Australia

The location of the school I chose is really convenient, 5 mins walk to bus station and train station. Although the class itself is not exciting as I am doing preparation of ielts, teacher has tried a funny way to make the class less boring and show us a lot of skill for the test

JONGHO PARK, student from Australia

I could focus to learn English easier than I learn without any assistance. It was far away from my home and I've got up too early.
