SupportMy journey to English
I have been studying English for over two years. My main motivation is the ability to communicate freely with people from all over the world and feel confident while vacationing abroad. What I like most about the lessons is the special atmosphere and the way the teacher explains the material. Because of this, I stopped being afraid of mistakes and started receiving much more useful information than the school curriculum provides.
Results I’m proud of
After starting my studies, I began to understand grammar and complex texts much better. But the most important change is inner confidence. I have overcome the language barrier and now understand translations much more easily without worrying about minor errors. This gives me the strength to move toward my big goal.
Life during the war
Due to the occupation of my native Prymorsk, I had to move to Zaporizhzhia. The last few years have been very difficult: for almost a year, I went through a tough stage of adaptation and hospital treatment. Due to remote learning and constant shelling, studying has become harder, and I miss my friends dearly in the new city. Sometimes it’s scary because the war might force us to move even further from home. But these trials have made me stronger. I am supported by my family, the hope for a quick return home, and an unshakeable faith in an independent Ukraine.
Dreams for the future
I dream of opening my own business or a charitable foundation to help others. I understand that English is the key to cooperating with foreign investors and partners. Therefore, I am currently studying hard to realize these plans in the future and contribute to the development of our state.
A word of gratitude
“I sincerely thank everyone who works for the children and believes in the bright future of Ukraine. Great respect to all the kind people who support us with their donations and care.”
