I learned self-discipline and gained confidence, self-control, patience, and humility.

What do you think about the surroundings of the academy?
The school is situated in a quiet and peaceful neighbourhood with fresh air, beautiful mountains, and a calm river. Climbing up the mountain was the best activity.
