Student Testimonials
I’ve been a student at Aimee International School for 3 years. Our annual day was a big deal, and I got to be an anchor last year. I auditioned, and the teachers and director picked me. I was nervous but excited for this unique opportunity. On the actual day, I went on stage and delivered my lines perfectly. When I looked out, I saw my parents beaming with happiness, seeing me talk confidently. It’s a memory I’ll always cherish.
Since then, I’ve anchored more events in school, which has made me more confident. Now, if I’m asked to speak, I can do it without fear. Previously, speaking in front of a big crowd used to scare me. But now, I’m fearless.
