What is the best part of beginning a semester? The excitement of a new adventure. That feeling of stepping into something unknown, something full of possibilities—it’s electric. At Cumorah Academy, we believe every semester marks not just a continuation of learning, but the thrilling start of a new chapter. And we don’t just say “adventure” lightly—we mean it in its truest sense: an unusual and exciting experience or activity.
This Spring, a fresh wave of students from across the globe will be joining us. And with them comes a wave of stories, dreams, and ambition. Here’s why the Spring Semester of 2025 at Cumorah Academy is already brimming with excitement, hope, and purpose.
Why We Call It an Adventure
When you join Cumorah Academy, you’re not just signing up for classes—you’re embarking on a journey. Here’s what makes it so:
- A Global Community: Meet and learn alongside students from Ukraine, Spain, Moldova, Brazil, Peru, the Czech Republic, and more. Every conversation holds a new perspective.
- World-Class Mentors: Learn from professionals who bring with them a wealth of knowledge in leadership, business, service, and faith.
- Cultural Discovery: Explore the stunning architecture and rich history of Prague and travel to other parts of Europe—all while building friendships that will last a lifetime.
This isn’t your average academic experience. It’s a life-changing, border-breaking, spiritually enriching adventure that invites growth in every form—intellectual, emotional, social, and spiritual.
The Excitement of Spring
Spring holds a special place in our hearts. The longer days and warmer weather seem to whisper, “You can start again.” Just like the trees bloom again after winter, we get the chance to refresh, refocus, and renew ourselves.
In this season, we are reminded of what poet T.S. Eliot once wrote:
“Every moment is a fresh beginning.”
It’s that mindset we bring to the Spring Semester. It doesn’t matter where you’ve been or what you’ve done—what matters is who you want to become. Whether your goal is to improve your English, grow in your faith, develop leadership skills, or simply make new friends, Cumorah Academy is the perfect place to begin anew.
What Students Are Saying
Every new semester, we get to witness students arrive on campus with eyes full of wonder and hearts ready to grow. We asked a few of them about their expectations, and their answers reflect the excitement and hope that defines the Cumorah experience:
Jonas from Brazil (English Student):
“My expectations are high because I want to learn more English and become more fluent. That’s my main focus. I also want to make more friends, do some networking, and learn a lot—not just about the language, but also about Jesus Christ.”
Mabelle from Peru (English Student):
“My expectations are to become a better person, develop better habits… I want to improve my English, enroll in English classes, and focus on career development and leadership. I want to speak better English, get a better job, and be a better friend—just be better in every way.”
Tusha from the Czech Republic (Business Student):
“I expect to meet amazing people and feel supported and uplifted. My goal is to become a better friend, and I believe Cumorah will be a great place to learn how to do that.”
These are more than just goals—they’re reflections of what truly matters. Self-improvement, connection, and purpose.
Embracing the Excitement of Growth
Each semester at Cumorah Academy is like a blank canvas. No two semesters are the same, just as no two students are the same. Even for returning staff and mentors, every session brings its own energy, its own rhythm, and its own challenges.
We know we can’t rely solely on past success. We must grow and improve. That’s the spirit we embrace—and the same spirit we pass on to every student who walks through our doors.
With God’s love in our hearts and excitement in our steps, we trust that this semester will be a success.
Your Adventure Starts Now
What excites us most isn’t just what we already know—it’s what we don’t know yet. The conversations yet to happen, the friendships yet to form, the talents yet to be discovered.
If you’re considering joining us, think of this not just as a school or program. Think of it as the next big adventure in your life.
As we welcome the Spring Semester of 2025, we’re not just opening the doors of our campus—we’re opening the doors to possibility, growth, faith, and transformation.
Let the excitement begin.
