I arrived from Moscow two weeks ago. A friend of mine recommended Embassy CES to me several years ago. I enjoyed it a lot so now I have some time off work I decided to come here again. It's my 3rd time here. I like the school, the staff are very friendly, particularly my teacher John. It's my second time with him and I think he's brilliant.

New York is so vibrant and you can walk everywhere. There's a lot of very nice and interesting people too. I've made some friends in New York so I meet them. Sometimes we go to the movies or we just go out. The city never sleeps - any night of the week when I am up for it I can go out with friends.

When I go back to Russia I will continue working on my PhD in Cross Cultural Studies. It's very helpful to be abroad and to meet students from other countries because I get such a thorough insight.

Embassy CES is a good place to recommend. It gave me a really nice opportunity to broaden my horizons. Not only linguistically but I really enjoyed learning so many things about different cultures. It's a really international school.
