What Our Students Say
"Our generation is trying hard to see life in a new way and strive for the better. I am thankful for Paper Airplanes because they opened the way for us to know new people from different cultures and learn the language from its origins."
- Luna Tayan, Syria
What Our Students Say
"Currently, I am more confident in myself when I use English. When I started receiving lessons with Paper Airplanes I was in the pre intermediate level and currently, I'm at the advanced level."
- Ismail Alhaj Osman, Turkey
What Our Students Say
"There's no doubt that Paper Airplanes improved my English and made this language to be more easy, flexible and simple to use. Speaking to a native tutor made the language more comfortable either writing and reading. I can be sure that 75% of my English level has improved because of my tutor's hardworking and the organization too!"
- Abd al-Hadi Jarad, Syria

What Our Tutors Say
