JUNE & JULY 2014
“
The courses offered by the Institute were challenging and taught me important skills. I learnt how to work independently and to budget my time; this allowed me get the most out of such a vibrant city. Overall, I am glad I took these courses as they have benefitted me in a brilliant way, and are now helping me with my current studies.
