For me, GOA has provided a classroom setting that I've never experienced before. More than being an simple opportunity to take a class not offered at EA, it has become an opportunity to interact with students around the world (a very recent possibility in terms of human interactions and development) which is something that very few people my age can do. Mostly, it's showed me that whether in Hong Kong, Japan, or wherever, students are students and we all work towards learning something we enjoy. Or we try to.
I think I'll remember GOA not as the time I took Multi, but the time I tried something new, messed around with my usual learning style and pushed myself to be more independent as a student.
