WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT US

Since I was little, I enjoyed learning new things, so that when my school offered students to participate in the Dual Diploma Program, I was very interested. This really turned out to be a great decision since I enjoy improving my English, and to learn things from another perspective as well as getting the opportunity to take courses that are not offered at my school. Anna Lena Wellemin, student from Germany

My best-loved school subjects are history, math and government, and for this reason, I immensely enjoyed my three-year course in the Dual Diploma Program, during which I learned new math topics and studied U.S. history and U.S. government. The best thing was participating in the live sessions and specially meeting experts thanks to the Let’s get Inspired email alerts. Giulio Colombo, student from Italy

I am responsible for all things pedagogic with Dual Diploma Germany. I love hearing how students are progressing and my main motivation is that Dual Diploma Program can enrich, enhance and broaden the horizons of all participants. John Lazaridis, Program Director from Germany

What I love about the program is that the students are learning essential skills that they will need not only in school, but also in their professional lives. Such as, reading and responding to emails, organizing online meetings, communicating with others if they have doubts, improving their time management… Jameson Webb, Program Director from Spain

Having lived and studied abroad, I know first-hand the value that multicultural educational opportunities have for students, and thus I’m extremely excited about our collaboration with Academica. Through the program, students are not only reinforcing their English knowledge, but also building new relationships that will help them succeed in their studies. Martin Mathus, Program Director from Mexico

My experience in Dual Diploma gave me the confidence and tools I needed -especially essay writing- to confidently tackle my Bachelor’s Degree in Global Studies completely in English at the Pompeu Fabra University and my 9-month-stay at the University of Chicago. María Odériz, alumni from Spain

I want to thank you for this first semester. Pablo has changed a lot. He is more mature. He is totally in new in the online courses, and although he has been studying English since he was four years old, it has been the first time he has been motivated and I think the main reason has been your behavior and your teaching skills. Thanks a lot. María Jesús de Arteaga Larru, parent from Spain

Thank You so much for encouraging me every step of this journey with the Double Diploma: I wouldn’t have achieved this much without your guidance. Your passion, love and positivity, which filled every live session, every mail, and feedback, have inspired me to be a better person for real. Jesmean Kaur, student from France

I like to travel. When I go somewhere, I love to go out and enjoy as much as I can because they are great experiences for life. That’s one of my purposes is to study abroad and join the Dual Diploma Program. Someday I want to travel around the world, working hard to get it. Ángel Sebastián Yánez Menéndez, student from Ecuador
