Through the U.S. Dual Diploma Program, I became more familiar with the English language as well as other schooling and lesson systems. I met wonderful friends and very knowledgeable teachers. I learned about different topics, American geography, literature, and much more.

We introduced the Dual Diploma Program this year. Students are very enthusiastic--they really like the courses. And the parents see that it's a major plus--it's going to give their children advantages when applying to colleges and jobs. We also have families from outside of the school who want to participate.

The Dual Diploma is a great advantage. It allows me to manage my time effectively between sports and studies, and it gives me a sense of responsibility.

We saw this as an opportunity for Laura--a deeper understanding of the English language and the possibility of opening new doors in the job market. I imagine that in about four, five years she will be attending college in the United States and working there in the future as well, as a result of the Dual Diploma Program.

My experience in the Dual Diploma Program has been extraordinary. It has helped me academically, from organizing my time to being more responsible. It improved my English significantly by expanding my vocabulary. It makes my academic résumé stand out and shows I'm a hard working person. It is a great accomplishment that will make future me proud, as well as my parents.

Earning a dual high school diploma is so crucial for me. It has even improved my English, which was quite good already. And it also makes my admission stand out because I have two diplomas. That shows that I’m a hard worker and that I know how to organize myself. So, this is more attractive to universities.

The Dual Diploma Program allows me to get educated on different subjects outside of my local education system from multiple perspectives. The program helped advance my English, and I gained new knowledge that helped enhance my general cultural awareness.

It is very rewarding for me to be part of Dual Diploma Program. I am learning a lot of things that I never imagined I would have the opportunity to learn. I've been participating in new experiences that really build me up as a person.

The Dual Diploma Program has compelled Laura to learn more and commit to something she really likes. I see her entering university and having a wonderful career that she enjoys. She is adding experiences and disciplines to her world that she would never have here in Brazil.
