I decided to study English because its a really important language. Nowadaysto get a job or do business or travel, you should speak English. It will help meto fnd a job more easily and also, with the Internship Program, I think my work

experience will be really useul in my lie.

mihl mianda Aalo, micoEnglish or Customer Service & Tourism

I would recommend the work program to other students who are lookingto improve their English. When you work, you are able to apply what youalready learned in class. It is exciting to work in another country with otherpeople who speak English. You will be able to speak and listen to Englishdaily and learn new expressions.
