Now I don’t feel shy when I speak English. Moreover, I can tell jokes and stand in front of an audience and give a speech. My English skills will help me with my work. I’ll try to speak in English even in my country. I want to learn more and more. Also, I can help people in the language like how the school did for me.

Study clubs are a great free tool offered by the school. ‘IELTS club’ helped me a lot in preparation for my exam, and I was able to achieve the result I needed in a short time.

The best thing about the teachers is that they’re all very friends and understanding. I would love to study with Kaplan again if I had the chance. Kaplan is a place I would always recommend for people who want to learn English.
