A story of perseverance
We would like to share with you the story of María Ros, a student from our centre. María is a great example of perseverance and in this video, she tells us how on many occasions she felt inferior to her classmates and used to compare herself to them, feeling insecure and unsuccessful in her language learning. Despite going through rough patches, María kept trying and thanks to her desire to improve and the support she received from her parents, she managed to achieve her B2 certificate and is now preparing for the Cambridge C1 certificate. In addition, María tells us about the benefits of learning a language, which is even more rewarding for her.
