5. Come to the Hilltop Language School and change your life.
When I was a young girl, all I ever wanted to do was traveling, and I decided that the best way to do this was to become a flight attendant. I’ve been a flight attendant for two years now. It’s a really interesting job because I travel all over the world. I discovered that the most important requirement was to speak English well, so I studied English at the Hilltop Language School for five years before I became a flight attendant. It was because I could speak English that I got the job. Thank you, Hilltop Language School!

I want to be a tour guide. In fact, it’s all I have ever wanted to be. I want to travel, especially to English-speaking countries such as the United States and Australia. However, I know that I have to improve my English, so I’ve started taking lessons at the Hilltop Language School. The Hilltop Language School has really helped me learn English. I’ve been a student here for a year now, and I really love it. Maybe when I leave school I’ll think about becoming an English teacher rather than a tour guide!
