Student Success Story

Ivana Trajanovska, Macedonia
English for Vocational Education

"I am Ivana Trajanovska. I am from Macedonia a small country located in the south of Europe. My opinion is that Carrick is a good school and here in Carrick I learn a lot, my English is better now than before. In Carrick we have the chance to do lots of activities. We have a computer library, a coffee shop and elective classes in the afternoon. I’ve met many students from different countries and they are also my friends. The class sizes are pretty good and small around 13-15 students. It is a good experience for me. My English is getting better day by day because I have very good teachers, they are also from different countries and help us a lot. My plans for the future are to do some other course in Carrick."
