By everyday communication with the international students and teachers I improved my spoken English, now I am able to express myself fluently also on the business (field of my studies) topics. I like the country and the local people so my stay in Finland encouraged me to start studyinf Finnish - Ive been already attending classes of Finnish language for two semesters.

After having been for one year in England before, my level of English was very good. As the finish people speak very good English, I thought it would be good to go to another country than England where the level of English is very good. Unfortunatley during my stay I spent most of the time with other exchanges whos English I thought was not that good. Therefore I feel that my skills acutally worsened.
