ITGL Memory: I completed my Master's degree at ITGL and continued to work for ITGL during my OPT. I think ITGL can definitely help you explore the possibilities of the education field better and more profoundly, whether you are new to the field or already have relevant learning and working experience. In the process, we can interact with experienced and friendly professors and gain knowledge about the diverse field of education, teamwork skills, personal expression abilities, and more. Therefore, my recommendation to all of you is to focus on each lesson and personal development, and I wish you all to enjoy your new journey.
