I think English is a very important language. It’s a universal language. I think when you are here at Kaplan you are immersed in the culture so you learn English much better than if you are in your own country.

Seattle is an organized, calm, and green city, and the people are really friendly and helpful. The teachers motivate us to think, cooperate and speak. They focus on individual weaknesses of the students to help us become better.
