Paper in English – chance to demonstrate talent

Savremena’s student joined the group of talented secondary school students, winning as many as 94 points – almost the highest score – on her English paper!

Tara wrote an essay about her favourite band “My Chemical Romance”, and then presented her paper orally. She successfully overcame the last obstacle towards her goal when she proved that her knowledge of English grammar was also excellent.
