I started my Masters in Urban Planning 4 weeks ago (Spring 2024) at SJSU. Since the first day, I have been remembering my excellent decision to study at International Gateways before applying for the Master's degree. During these last weeks, I have understood my classes, also I can contextualize myself with historical and cultural North American references. I am reading tons of chapters at an appropriate speed without translating any word, and I am writing e-mails and assignments with accurate feedback, which means that I am expressing myself and I am being understood. Additionally, today I will make my first presentation and all the practice that I had last semester makes me more confident for today. Besides all the pleasure moments in the classes, I would like to recognize the value of the work that the teachers have been doing for international students at the International Gateways course.
