"My choice fell on this direction, because I always had a desire for foreign languages and learning about new cultures. That is why I also study in the English group at my alma mater. First, it is important to note the openness of the teachers and the dean's office of Sumy State University, as well as their willingness to provide support and help, which greatly simplified the process of solving issues with documents and transferring to an individual schedule. Secondly, it is quite interesting to compare the educational process, evaluation methods and the structure of the academic year.
