Let your English grow
17th June 2008

Handan Kazanci, aged 26 from Istanbul is the first student to some to ESoE through the British Council’s “Let Your English Grow”  competition.

A journalist from Istanbul, she spent the last year in Cheltenham and was short listed among a number of candidates who all had to write about why they wanted to study English.

Graham White, Principal of ESoE, chose Handan on the basis of her ambitions as she ultimately aims to study for a Masters degree in Human Rights at a UK university. For this she needs a score of 7 or higher in her IELTS exam, something she feels confident she can achieve.
