“I’ve always wanted to study abroad, especially in America. English has been the second language that I wanted to learn for a long time. I searched online for an international language school and after reading about EF, applied immediately. I chose Miami because the sea view here is so blue and stunning. Every day I go to school in a good mood. The teachers are very patient. My classmates and roommates are friendly too! I’m so happy I made this decision, and I’ll continue to choose EF Languages Abroad in other countries!”
