“My experience in Kaplan has been great so far. I chose Intensive Business English
because I find the subject very useful, especially if you are interested in learning about
the business environment in New Zealand. I have to say that the class exceeded my
expectations because I ended up learning about business culture from all over the
world. I had the opportunity to meet people from different countries in Europe, Asia
and Latin America, and share with them knowledge, work experiences and customs,
which I definitely find the most enriching component of the class. Although I came to
New Zealand to improve my English skills, I also had the blessing to meet awesome
people and make close friends who will remain always in my heart.”
