There is hardly any other country more<br />

fascinating and diverse than the United<br />

States. Living here offers unlimited<br />

possibilities, from experiencing exciting<br />

city life to exploring the wild and unspoilt<br />

country, as well as contact with the<br />

country’s open and welcoming population.<br />

<strong>Learning</strong> English in a country that is a<br />

leader in research, technology, trade and<br />

industry will not only improve your<br />

language but also develop your personality.<br />

New York<br />

There’s nothing bite-sized about<br />

the Big Apple, the city of superlatives.<br />

No other city on earth<br />

brings together so many races,<br />

cultures, religions and nations.<br />

New trends are born here all the<br />

time, between the skyscrapers of<br />

Manhattan, along Broadway, Wall<br />

Street and Central Park.<br />

East Lansing<br />

A typical university town, but<br />

with all the amenities one would<br />

expect from a big city: restaurants,<br />

coffee bars, entertainment centres,<br />

malls, all within walking distance<br />

of the campus and the student<br />

residences. A wonderful, true university<br />

experience.<br />

Asgard Hubl, Germany<br />

What helped me overcome my<br />

shyness in speaking English was the<br />

friendliness of everyone working at<br />

the school. I never hesitated to ask<br />

questions because all the people were<br />

very helpful. During my time in San<br />

Diego, I made many friends, tried<br />

new food and had a lot of fun. I will<br />

miss San Diego and the great time I<br />

had, but I will definitely keep in<br />

touch with everyone!<br />
