Experience in Oñati: 

Thanks to my scholarship I got opportunity to acquire my knowledge in the field of sociology and law, I got my second Master degree, I developed my language skills, I met very open and smart people (lecturers and students), I could find out more about Basque country and its culture, I could also visit Spain. I was very satisfied with my staying in Onati. As far as I remember I didn't pass my first exam (after the first course) … It was a very stressful and sad situation for me … Mainly because I usually passed all exams in Poland . I didn't pass the exam because I didn't understand the topic of the essay. However, thanks to the support of the IISL personnel and students I could write an essay again and I passed the exam ….I even got a very good grade J .
