Yes I'd like to when this thing gets back to normal, I will go abroad to study or work. maybe it will be not in the UK, because it costs too much for me and I guess difficult to find a job with my poor English.. but one day!!

Yes, I would like to study in UK. I am living in Liverpool. I have had a ESOL testing with E3 but there is no class for me at the moment. I hope I could take an ESOL English class next time.

of course, I'd rather study abroad and studying in the UK is my dream since I was a kid. It's the reason why I'm learning English now. I hope it will become a reality soon.

Of course. I am a recent graduate from Al-Isra University in architecture engineering and I would like to complete my education by enrolling in a master's degree so I have to get a high band in the IELTS test to do that.

I was student here and I completed my college. I have to say I did enjoy study because it was a lot fun and found some real friends.
