“Participating in COIL immersed me in continuous and meaningful communication with students from ITU, which greatly enriched my understanding of cross-culture. Through regular weekly discussions, I learned to appreciate and master the nuances of different cultural viewpoints, communication methods and academic methods, all of which made me a more adaptable and open-minded learner.”
