It seems just like yesterday since I finished ELP classes, yet many years have passed. It might be true that English is one of the most common spoken languages and it helps your networking.

However personally, ELP helped in my journey to achieve my goals by not only helping me to communicate with people daily, but also ensuring that those listening to me speak would have a better understanding about who I was.

None of this would have happened if I didn’t have the keys that ELP gave to me. These keys opened a gate for me to a broader world. With the skills ELP provided, I was able to graduate from VCU’s School of the Arts and currently work as an artist. Currently, my paintings sell through all kinds of markets such as: Wayfair, Walmart, Home Depot, and Barnes and Noble.
