But don’t forget – at Kaplan, exploration and adventure are part of the learning process, so you’ll still have opportunities to get out and enjoy your destination.
- SPECIFIC SKILLS SESSIONS help you eliminate your weaknesses, explore your interests or prepare to achieve the qualifications you need
- IDEAL FOR STUDENTS hoping to progress to university in the English-speaking world. An Intensive Academic course equips you to learn and thrive in an Anglophone academic setting
