Thu, 26 Dec 2019 Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences The Global Power of English: Why Do So Many People Want to Learn it? One might be forgiven for thinking that English is a ubiquitous language.

Wed, 24 Jul 2019 Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences Problems for Learners of English in Panama Panama is a small country located in Central America with few people, but a bold culture and unique historical background. It is most notoriously known for the Panama Canal, which was controlled by the United States until quite recently.
