ACE Language School Summer Programme
My summer at ACE Language School was an unforgettable experience. From the first day, I felt welcome and comfortable. Everyone at the school was kind and always ready to help. The teachers really cared about us and made the lessons fun, so learning English felt easy and natural. I felt safe all the time, and that was very important for me because it was my first time studying in another country. The staff were always smiling and made me feel like part of a family. Each day I felt more confident, not only in my English but also in myself. When the course finished, I felt proud of what I had learned and a little sad to leave. I will never forget the feeling of being at ACE.
