Melania Trump used as promotional tactic for English classes

A Croatian private school is using first lady Melania Trump’s image to promote their English classes.

Billboards with the first lady’s image were placed throughout the country’s capital of Zagreb by the Američki Institut.

The billboard has a picture of Mrs. Trump in front of an American flag and reads "Just imagine how far you can go with a little bit of English."

The school’s communication director Ivis Buric told CNBC “In no means is it some kind of political message.”

He also said that the importance of learning English has grown in Croatia as more and more people have been leaving the country for better opportunities.

Buric explained that the First Lady is the most popular figure from the region.
