Meet Students
Friends from 100 countries! Thanks to our global network of offices and schools, only EF can create such an international community of students, hailing from 100 countries. Together you’ll come from big cities and small villages, speak dozens of languages, carry numerous passport stamps, represent many customs and creeds, landscapes and lifestyles. But one thing you will share is your new common language and the wonderful memories of your course.
Meet friends even before you go. With the Efekta™ iLab you can find people traveling to the same school as you even before you leave your own home. You’ll have friends even before you arrive at your new school!
See what our earlier students have to say:
Name: Monika Németh
City: Paris
I've learnt so much
When I first arrived in Paris I found the language hard, but now pronunciation is much easier and my range of vocabulary has improved. I like my intensive French classes the best because my teachers are friendly, my classmates are my friends and as well as learning lots, we are always laughing! I come from a small town so to have classmates from all over the world is so much fun and really interesting.
Name: Line Nygard
City: Quito
I’m perfecting my Spanish for my future career plans
I had high expectations before I came to Quito but my programme is even better than I thought. From the very beginning we focused on specific vocabulary used in the industry. I’ve learnt so much, everything from management in hotels and restaurants to about tourism in general. I also learnt a lot through my internship at a travel agency and as part of it I even got to go on a cruise to the Galapagos!
Name: Shih-Ching Yeh
City: Barcelona
I have a passion for studing
A really good thing I’ve learn is how to write a dissertation and how to arrange my time efficiently. Also, because we do two or three presentations each week I now have the ability to cooperate in a group with people from all over the world. The staff at the school are great, they’re so kind to international students and they help us with any problems.
Name: Yoshimichi Shimomoto
City: Rome
I really love my workplace!
I decided to do an internship to work with native speakers and understand a different working culture. My EF Internship Coordinator organised a great job for me in Rome at a fashion company. I began dealing with the clothes in the showroom but now I’m involved in the design and marketing meetings which are exciting. It’s a great experience and I won't ruin even one day here!
