Testimonials (in the words of our former students)

Hua, China

Sema [one of the teachers] has great patience with us, correcting our pronunciation again and again. I enjoyed her class so much and never missed the course (except an absence due to conflicting time of another exam). Meanwhile, I gave a successful talk in APS conference which is the most influential conference in physics by following her suggestions, for example, to make eye contact with the audience and make proper hand gestures. My supervisor also told me that I already made a big progress on pronunciation although I do not think so. I would like to sincerely thank for her help and encouragement. I just received the best paper award (only one person) in our department, and I will have many presentations in the future. Now I feel very confident and glad to share my research work; the practice in her class is really helpful.

I spent an amazing year in the institute and I learned a lot. They teach English in an amazing way and involve culture as well to enhance the experience of learning, and make people learn even in their regular life. The staff are highly knowledgeable and friendly as well. They are nice and they maintain a good environment for each student’s needs, and the student is always the priority.

Me siento orgullosa y afortunada por haber tenido la gran oportunidad…. Nunca olvidare esta etapa de mi vida y siempre estaré agradecida con todos los profesores, quienes ocuparán un lugar en mi corazón.

I was so afraid of speaking, writing, and listening in English but all the teachers helped us step by step, so I was able to develop my English ability and also I could interact with many international friends!! It was a really good experience in my life and gave me a new goal that is entering graduate school! All the teachers were really kind and enthusiastic, they are always make a lot of effort in teaching for international students like me.

Abdulaziz, Kuwait

I have studied English as a second language with these amazing teachers. Now I am studying architectural engineering in Oklahoma State University. Through my experience with these teachers, I have improved my English skills in every aspect of communicating. I have learned how to write an academic essay and research, read better, and talk better. They were always glad to help us in anything. Even with something not related to English, they were ready to help. Now, after 15 months of learning from these great teachers, I am glad to say that I am very happy with my English.

I will always be grateful for what the instructors have done to help international students – for being patient with us, inspiring us to practice English and never hesitating to offer us help. For example, they designed a lot of content to help us adapt to American cultures and be prepared for our future study and career, like learning how to cite sources and paraphrase. Furthermore, they also encouraged us to express our opinions and respect people from different cultural backgrounds.

语言中心老师们的耐心，对国际学生学习英语的激励，和给予我们的帮助，都令我心怀感恩。例如，他们设计了大量的课程来协助我们适应美国文化，并为将来的学习和职业生涯做准备，比如学习如何用英文进行引用和改写。更重要的是，他们鼓励我们表达自己的看法，并且学会尊重来自不同文化背景的人。

Janete, Angola

Learning English was the best experience I had since I arrived in the U.S. However, it was only possible because of the amazing teachers I had. They were always willing to help whenever I needed. In fact, they were respectful, friendly, welcoming, knowledgeable, and very professional. The teachers excel at what they do; consequently, today I am an outstanding college student.

Aprender Inglês, foi uma das melhores experiências que tive desde que cheguei nos Estados Unidos. Contudo, isto só foi possível por causa dos professores maravilhosos que tive. Eles estavam sempre dispostos a ajudar sempre que precisasse. Inclusive, eles eram respeitosos, simpáticos, acolhedores, inteligentes, e muito professionais. Os professores sobressaem naquilo que fazem; e consequentemente, hoje eu sou uma aluna universitária excepcional.

I cannot find enough words to express my deep gratitude to all the teachers for their great help to me. Together, they are beyond a great team. They are all highly qualified teachers, with the profound knowledge in English language. They have a lot of experience, especially in teaching foreigners, so they know thoroughly the parts of English that cause the most trouble for students. Besides, their lessons are always designed and arranged in the logical way so learners can understand and absorb the lectures easier and faster. They’re always dedicated to helping students make progress and reach their goals. Most importantly, they’re friendly and nice. They treat us like a family so that for a moment, I could forget the feeling of missing home.
