They immediately solved the problems and provided alternative solutions to me when needed. Besides, the multicultural learning experience is so awesome which provides the opportunity for me to improve my English communication skills as well as networking skills. I am glad that I can study in APLC and APU, of course, thanks to my agent who recommended APLC and APU to me for pursuing my studies."

Nguyen Thi Hong Bich, Vietnam

"Teachers said "In the classroom, you speak only English." So I had to try speaking English without thinking about making mistakes. In APLC, I made friends not only Japanese students from different universities but also students from many different countries. I made friend with a Korean for the first time. We both speak poor English, but I’m so glad that we are able to communicate with each other. If you join APLC, you will enjoy speaking and studying English with friends from all over the world."

Risako Kishid, Japan

"The teachers in APLC are very friendly, they are very helpful to us in learning the English language in class. The environment of APLC is also very different, and I got to know students from different countries in the same class. Besides learning the English language, I also made new friends and learnt about new culture from my classmates."
