Based on my learning period in SAA, I think that the best word to describe it is “Excellence”. From the moment I came to ask forinformation, on the first day that I started my course, I could feel it. SAA-GE has a lot of well-prepared teachers. For example, our ACCA teachers, they gave a lot of helpfulsuggestions and have great knowledge and provided wonderful examples that helped me to pass my examinations. In addition, the SAA-GE staff were also very nice to me, they assured me that I made a right choice to study at SAA-GE. In conclusion, it was an unforgettable experience in my life.

LIAO RONG XUN- CHINA | PREPARATORY COURSE FOR ASSOCIATION OF CHARTERED CERTIFIED ACCOUNTANTS (ACCA)

Hello, everyone who dreams of being a future global leader!

My name is Kim. I am a teacher in Korea, and I'm a PhD candidate in education. As a future PhD in education, I have chosen SAA to study English in depth. I want to recommend this school to you.

First, SAA has a systematic curriculum and excellent English experts. The teachers are not only experts in English education but also experts in teaching-learning methods. They can improve the efficiency of learning by naturally linking real-life with learning, and improve our self-confidence, and self-efficacy by steadily providing students with large and small success experiences.

Secondly, SAA manages student life through the managers of each country. When I first arrived in Singapore, everything was strange and scary, but with the help of the Korean manager, I was able to adjust to life here quickly. You can ask for help not only related to learning, but also in your life's difficulties, and they will actively try to help you focus more on studying English.

I am sure that my three-month Singapore English course was very successful because of SAA. I will definitely choose SAA if I study English again in Singapore. I hope you can make a wise choice, as I do.
