Kokoro Yoshimatsu is our only Japanese student at English School EC Cape Town where she took part in general English lessons. Today is her last day and she would like to share about her stay to study English in South Africa: “I return to the studies, I am 37 years old!” “At first, I even felt a sense of guilt. But it was changed when the life of EC started. At EC School, there are various students, age, position. Nationality are all different! Even some “Mum students”! Many teachers, friends and people who I met in Cape Town taught me : “It is not too late in the life.” And I have met many students from Africa, Middle East, South America, the person who I didn’t have much in Japan. We talked about each culture, outlook on religion and thought to each country. It was a wonderful experience!” __________________________________ Remember to follow us on Facebook or Twitter RELATED BLOG POSTS Student that has come and gone Another Friday, another graduation ceremony
