“Psychology has always been my favorite subject.
“EF University Transition Program gave me the opportunity to experience life as a student in the US. My English has greatly improved: Now, I speak English with confidence when I talk to local Americans and other students. I don’t feel scared to talk at all. ”
Thanks to the guidance from EF teachers, I received an offer from the University of Nottingham to study psychology. My dream of studying at university has now come true!”
