Quote from an International student:
"The wide range of classroom learning activities has been helpful to me in understanding the lessons. One of my goals in coming here was to improve my English skills and I feel that I am achieving that goal. It has been awesome to be a member of the Junior Boys’ Football Team. I have been able to improve my football skills and it has helped me to make friends."
