HaroldВот и я добралась написать отзыв моему любимому Гарольду. Спасибо, что ты был со мной все эти полгода, пока я готовилась к отъезду и экзамену SSAT. Спасибо, что открыл мне Америку и снял розовые очки с глаз. Спасибо, что дал мне знания, которые теперь помогают в учебе здесь в США. Увидимся скоро – в Москве или Нью-Йорке.
Напишу пару слов про занятия. Мне все нравилось. От местоположения школы до атмосферы внутри. Преподают, конечно, не так как в школе. Здесь есть живое общение, никто не отвлекает, никто не торопит и не отстает. Все понятно, доходчиво. Наверное, таким и должно быть обучение. Ааа, и самое важное – экзамен-то я сдала даже лучше, чем ожидала.
