What to do during waiting : I'm focusing on taking care of the school I'm building, creating curriculum for teaching CLIL in South East Asia, developing games, and probably learning how to create chocolate from bean to bar :').

aiai Posted April 24, 2021 Author Share Posted April 24, 2021 Yes, the amount of accepting students is high, so there's no room for the waitlist. It's a good experience tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
