Celtic English Academy | Student Stories
What do students care about? 🗣
We'd wager on the genuine opinions of other students.
Not the corny, over-produced, scripted content we often see, but rather authentic, straight-to-the-point, honest answers. People can see through stories that lack authenticity.
Working with Celtic English Academy and in partnership with AFS Global STEM Innovators, we produced testimonial videos where students share their real experiences on the program.
Give it a watch. 👇
