STUDENT TESTIMONIALS
SELIM EL BATTOUTY, Egypt
"I decided to attend GBSB Global primarily because of the students. My peers come from a wide variety of backgrounds and cultures. Because the class sizes are small, you can have a more concentrated learning experience. Teachers are very approachable and open to direct conversation; this is something I value about my experience and it was also a major contributor to why I chose to come to GBSB Global. The school teaches a very practical perspective on business that is easy to comprehend and to relate to. I now understand the business environment and business culture much better."
