"LEAP might not be the
best school for the native speaker students, but it is the best school for the
immigrant students like us.Nowadays, as
education is very crucial, our immigrant students should know how to read and
write to achieve our goals.Without
education, we will be like a boat which is sailing without a paddle in the wide
sea.The reason that I like LEAPSchool is, first of all, we have
the wonderful teachers who could lead us to get to our goals.Secondly, we have beautiful students from different
countries.

share our ideas to learn English.That’s
why LEAP is the best school and helps us to
learn English.I am really proud to be a

doors for the new immigrant students." Victor, Student
