The English course is really good and I have the feeling that I am learning a lot here. The teachers are very lovely and give a lot of attention to the students so that I almost feel like I am in private lessons. I like Hunters Lodge because it’s a great opportunity to really get to know new friends from other cultures and to practise English outside the school.

My favourite place in Cape Town is Lion’s Head where I can walk from the school. I’ve been there several times for the sunrise and sunset, which have, incidentally, been some of the most beautiful sunrises and sunsets in my life.

My favourite place in Boston is Boston Common. It is so relaxing and you can see animals and sit on the grass and be relaxed. Boston is an amazing city actually for me. It is so safe. I like to go to Harvard. It makes me feel so motivated.

Before this trip, I was very excited because I knew nobody and I didn’t know what would happen, but on the first day, the very nice ladies at the reception took away all these fears. They were really friendly and helped me with everything. My classmates were also very nice.

I had great, experienced teachers and interesting lessons which made studying easy and led to great results. Now I feel confident in the modern world and have good career opportunities.
