THE YEAR<br />
MELL PIRES<br />
Mell started studying at <strong>Focus</strong> in 2012 when the course<br />
was just beginning. She is our first kids’ student and we<br />
are so proud to have seen her grown up and matured<br />
throughout all these years. She started off as a very<br />
quiet and shy student and recently went on her first<br />
exchange program in California at 15. What makes me<br />
so proud is that when arriving in Cali she was placed in<br />
the most advanced level at the course. Besides that, she<br />
traveled on her own without her parents and did so well<br />
on her trip. With her English level she has independence<br />
and is ready for a brilliant future. This comes to show<br />
that fluency is a matter of liking the language and the<br />
world it opens.
