\u201cI am very honored to study in ALCI. The professor\u2019s lessons have played an important role in my studies at this stage. Also, weekly activities in the ALCI Office have enriched my knowledge and expanded my vision.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI am definitely enjoying my Coffee Hours at ALCI and I love the atmosphere and spirit of diversity, I like to see different students from different cultures. Although I am not able to come to every Coffee Hour, I am always glad to see smiling and cheering faces and when I come. Such events give me an excellent chance to meet new people and even make new friends. That is really essential for me while studying in the US because I miss my family and friends greatly.\u201d<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>

\u201cI chose Clark University because there is a major that I am very interested in, and also, I like the environment on Clark campus. I\u2019m taking two courses, listening\/speaking and reading\/writing in EAS level 4. I cannot choose my favorite course because I enjoy both the courses.\u201d<\/em><\/em><\/em><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>
