“I achieved an overall band score of 8 in the IELTS and received an offer from the Open University a UK College at just 12 years old, being the youngest in the entire course. ”
At Harrow, I discovered the true power of English—from developing a reading habit to finding my own voice. My homeroom teacher encouraged me to read numerous books. Furthermore, the school has afforded me countless opportunities such as debate and learning clubs, where I have acquired a range of vocabulary far exceeding my anticipated English level, and discovered my passion for pursuing teachings and lessons specifically tailored for academic and creative writing.
“With the personalised guidance offered in such a nurturing environment, I have found my future aspirations in international relations. ”
My teachers played a pivotal role in igniting my passion for History and English. My History teacher inspired me to delve into political science and the classics, broadening my understanding of the complexities of the past. Meanwhile, my English teacher had a unique approach that was both intellectually stimulating and constructive, offering concrete feedback on my creative writing. Through their guidance, I have discovered my future aspirations: to study Philosophy, Politics, and Economics at university and to pursue a career in international relations, striving to make a positive impact on the world.
“ Being in Harrow has transformed me into a more productive, intelligent, humble and acute person. ”
If I had not joined Harrow, I would not have developed the critical thinking skills that have allowed me to reach my achievements. Thanks to AISL Harrow’s culture of valuing all opinions and fostering an open mind, I learnt to embrace the value of humility and the ability to recognise all that is presented before me.
