Ebrahim, from the UAE, joined edukick England in September 2008. Ebrahim came to England a shy, quiet young lad nearly two years ago to join the football studies programme, and he hasn't looked back since!
Prior to coming ebrahim played with al Ain in the UAE. he'd always watch the English game and had visited the south of England on a previous occasion and had liked the experience. He was told about the Edukick England course by a friend and decided to check it out for himself!
in his first year here in England he studies the BTEC first diploma, along with supporting English lessons and successfully completed this and his FA level one, which, for a student with very limited English was a fantastic achievement.
This year, in his second year on the course he is concentrating on developing his English with inlingua Manchester, the partner English language school, alongside developing his football on the pitch. his communication on the pitch and with staff and friends ha dramatically improved over his time in England and will continue to as he has committed to more and more lesson over the coming weeks.
we asked ebrahim why he came to England and his thoughts on the course on the course:-
"I like English football, it's the best environment to learn and improve your game. Lats year was great, i met lots of fantastic people from many different countries and background, all with different skills and understanding of the game, this years just getting better. we have a great team here now who are all focused and committed to the football and coaches that push us to perform every session. I love England, I want to stay longer and would recommend this to anyone"
Over the coming months we will be following ebrahims progress on the course and his experiences.
