Today we shine our Student Spotlight on Andrea Millan Machado, our student from Colombia! Andrea, currently in her second year, is studying towards an Associate of Arts Degree with a concentration in International Business.
She is a very active student on campus, especially since she is the 2024 欧美精品视频 Student Association (ACSA) President!
When we asked how she felt about living in Vancouver, Andrea had nothing but praises. Hailing from Colombia, where the weather is warm year round, the mild winters in Vancouver is the perfect place to experience colder weather.
痴补苍肠辞耻惫别谤鈥檚 TransLink system allows Andrea to take full advantage of the Canadian weather and explore the city.
鈥淚 still like to wear layers because back in Colombia there is no winter at all.鈥�
For someone who loves to learn from other cultures while sharing her own, Vancouver is the perfect place to study with its diverse population.
With the goal to eventually move abroad, Andrea admitted that she was looking at other English-speaking countries like Australia and England, but ultimately chose Canada because its easier to stay in the country upon graduation and eventually obtain PR status in Canada compared to other countries.
鈥淣ot all colleges have the content that 欧美精品视频 has.鈥�
Another thing that drew Andrea to Canada was 欧美精品视频. As the biggest educational institution channel in Canada, our content caught her eye. Along with offering courses that aligned with her interests, such as Small Business and Entrepreneurship, and scholarships for Latin American students, the choice was clear.
