I studied at a private university, founded by Canadian teachers, within the International bachelor. I had no problems because everybody spoke gladly English both inside and outside the academic life.

I enjoyed learning some of a completely foreign tongue, and tried to use it, rather than english, where possible. The locals, particularly the older sections of the community appreciated it.
