My name is Yvonne and I'm from China. I want to study Law
in Britain and so I need a high level of English. Bath is a lovely
city to study in. The teachers are very kind and give you a lot
of support with your studies. In the classes I can learn lots
of thing and step-by-step I can improve my English. When I finish
my course here I'm going to begin an MA in Legal Studies at Bristol
University.
