“Here at EF I can go deeper than in my old school.

I have less classes and the class time is bigger, so we have more time to work through projects and ask questions. I have a lot more projects and hands-on experiences. For example, in my AP Psychology class we did a neuron made of candy to learn about the structures. On my global leadership project, we went to do a beach cleanup, and it was a perfect way to do something to help the community.”
