"Learning in English was a valuable asset for me while studying for my bachelor’s degree. I knew I wanted to attend an American university and needed to study the language. Ultimately, the English proficiency that I gained at UNYP helped me to earn my MBA at FIU in the United States. However, the presentation skills that I acquired helped me the most. We wrote a lot of essays at UNYP, and now, I am able to write articles and emails in English without thinking about them too much. The writing and presentation skills I learned are vital because they are the two essential things I use in my professional career,"
