What students say about ISD 200

“In ISD class, there are many humorous academic teachers, such as John, Ryan, and Rina. They totally change my thought that American lectures are very intriguing rather than dull.”

What students say about ISD 200

“As a person with poor communication skills, I learned [in ISD] class how to easily communicate with others [of other cultures], and that really helped me develop my communication skills. In different occasions, I tried to apply what I learned, and it did work.”
