advice on a flight school please!

Please take a quick look at this website of a flight school and give me some thoughts. I live in Lebanon and this flight school is the only one in the whole country

! Is this a good flight school or should I come back and train in the US? thanks...

I know I am still very young, but I want to get a good first step, and I don't want to make any mistakes that would leave me having to work 2 or 3 jobs when I'm older. I will move back to the USA for college, so I don't want to worry about International Regulations right now. Thanks to everyone who offers advice.

This flight school requires that you are 18, so you couldn't attend anyway. If you move back to the US, you will have to convert your foreign license to a FAA approved license in order to work in the US, and that requires training and another checkride which is just more money out of the pocket.. I would recommend holding off, and doing all of your training in the US if you plan on coming back here to work. You have plenty of time, you are only 14. I would go to college and work on your licenses while attending.
