Your Instructor
Your instructor: Hola a todos! As-salamu 3aleikum, and welcome! I’m April and I love all things international! If you are on this page, you must be a global citizen too. You may know me as a huge fan of the soccer team Al-hilal (ana hilaliya!), a Spanish instructor, or an academic advisor for international students. Either way, you’ve come to the right place for inside information on U.S. culture, the English language, academics in the U.S. and more. You will feel comfortable and excited for your next adventure in America in no time!
Why pay too much for an agent in your country that may or may not be a native English speaker, or lived or studied in the U.S. before, when you can get all the info from me! I have lived, studied, and worked abroad and know what it is like to be in your shoes. I’ve also worked with international students in the U.S. and can give you the inside information on how to achieve your dreams.
Why this course is different:
- Unlike other culture or language courses, or agents that provide information on studying and living in the U.S., you are learning from someone with more than 7 years of experience in international education, who has worked with students from 100+ countries, speaks multiple languages, and has extensive travel experience, most likely to YOUR country!
- You can get direct feedback from me as your instructor and an individualized experience.
- I've taken all the information you need, and condensed it into this course, so you don't have to go searching yourself.
