I am a final year student of Hotel and Gastronomy class, majoring “Room Division” in CVT Myanmar. In the class, we have been learning not only the subject’s theories and logics with real-life examples but also class group works, projects and activities with full facilities and materials. The greatest benefit of taking this class is that I have enhanced the duties and functions of organization which I can apply those in work. Moreover, I have gained more confidence than before that leads to achieve my dreams. That is why I would like to thank to every lecturers and teachers for both teaching the subjects and instructing us to walk on our right career path.
