=7. Feedback from Students=

Many studuents recommanded this courses are very effective and satify about quality of their education system from native-speakers. However, if applicants are hight English coomuncative competency, This is not the right course for them. These courses are designed for low/ middle level of Englsih students. Therefore, some students who obtained TOEFL more than 270, recommanded not to apply for the courses.
