EC Language Center Boston About the

  • EC Malta was established in 1991 as EC’s first and only school. This small school quickly gained a wonderful reputation and became one of the leading English language schools in Malta. Fast-forwarding to today you can see where this reputation has taken us. EC now has 15 schools in five countries on three continents. This year EC’s 700-plus staff will help over 40,000 students from over 140 countries to learn and improve their English language skills. You will only find EC schools in English-speaking countries and only in the top locations. Our schools are always in the most prestigious and central areas of the city. Choose any EC school and you will be impressed by the facilities the school has to offer. We heavily invest in keeping our schools modern and comfortable for you. We know you will learn better when you are relaxed and in a good environment. From innovating Club 50+ to Freestyle English programmes, we’re always looking at introducing new courses and improving the service we offer. We listen to our students and appreciate the feedback they give us. This allows us to establish new English courses as the needs of today’s English learners change. Maybe that’s why 97% of 40,000 EC students would recommend EC to a friend! In our 15 centres we have accumulated a combined total of over 150 years of English language teaching experience and each new EC school helps us to enrich ourselves, making us more diverse and adding to our strengths as a whole.

서형민

Boston은 작지도 크지도 않은 도시로, 유서 깊은 도시지만 명성에 비해 규모가 작다는 인상이 강합니다. 그러나 건물과 공원이 아름답고 미국 내에서는 비교적 안전하고 친절한 도시로, 생활하기에는 아주 적합한 도시입니다. 대중교통은 시설은 조금 낡았지만 지하철이 아주 잘 발달되어 보스턴 어디를 가더라도 어려움이 없으나 버스를 이용하는 지역에서 통학하는 학생들은 다소 불편할 수 있습니다.또한 단점으로는 rent가 다소 비싼 편에 속하는데, 미리 보스턴 코리아 등의 커뮤니티를 통해 살펴보고 구해보면 의외로 좋은 숙소를 싸게 구할 수도 있습니다.위치가 위치인 만큼 겨울에 매우 춥다는 이야기를 들었고, 지금도 상당히 춥습니다.

Ec Boston은 일단 다운타운의 중심에 위치해서 접근성이 좋고, 주변 환경과 시설이 뛰어납니다. 선생님들은 다소 편차가 있지만 비교적 열의가 있고 강의력도 좋은 편입니다. 수업에 따라 지루하고 별 도움이 없는 내용을 다룬다던가,반 분위기가 별로 좋지 않다던가 하는 일을 겪을 수가 있지만 이런 일은 어느 어학원에서나 있을 수 있는 일이라 생각합니다. 학원에 대한 만족도는 상당히 높은 편입니다. 방과 후 액티비티도 잘 구성되어 있으나 본인은 참여해 본적이 없습니다. 스카이 다이빙이나 나이아가라 폭포 관광, 뉴욕 관광, 아울렛 방문 등 흥미로운 액티비티도 있으며, 물론 이러한 액티비티는 추가 비용부담을 해야 합니다.

한국인 비율은.. 시즌에 따라 다르며, 특히 반에 따라 크게 달라집니다만 상당히 높은 편이라고 생각합니다. 샌프란시스코,뉴욕 등에서 트랜스퍼해온 학생들의 말을 들으니 한국인 비율 문제는 어느 어학원이나 비슷한 모양압니다. 다만 의외로 LA나 MIAMI가 한국인 비율이 상대적으로 낮다고 합니다.남미 계통이나 사우디 학생들이 많고, 유럽 학생들은 방학 시즌에 단기 연수를 하는 경우가 많습니다. 학생들은 대체로 친절하고 서로 잘 어울리는 분위기입니다.

--------------------------

Bostonは小さくも大きくもない都市で、歴史的な都市ですが、評判に比べて規模が小さいという印象です。ですが、建物や公園が美しく、米国内では比較的安全かつフレンドリーな街で、生活するには非常に適している都市です。公共交通機関は、施設は少し古い印象ですが、地下鉄が非常によく発達していてボストンどこに行くにも問題ないですが、バスを利用する地域で通学する学生は、多少不便です。また、短所としては、家賃が多少高いです。あらかじめボストンコリアなどのコミュニティなどを通じて探してみると意外にいい部屋を安く探すことも出来ます。位置が位置だけに、冬には非常に寒いという話を聞を聞きますが、今でもかなり寒いです。 

Ec Bostonは、ダウンタウンの中心部に位置しアクセスが良く、周囲の環境と施設が優れています。先生方は多少バラツキがありますが、熱心で、講義力も良い方です。授業に応じて退屈はしません内容を大事にするとか、雰囲気があまり良くないというような経験をすることがありますが、このようなことは、どの学校でもあり得ることだと思います。学校の満足度は非常に高いです。放課後アクティビティもよく構成されていますが、私自身は参加したことがありません。スカイダイビングやナイアガラの滝観光、ニューヨーク観光、アウトレット訪問など興味深いアクティビティもあります。もちろん、これらのアクティビティは、追加費用が必要です。 

韓国人の割合は、時期によって異なり、特にクラスに応じて大きく異なりますが、非常に多い方だと思います。サンフランシスコ、ニューヨークなどで転校してきた学生の話を聞きましたが韓国人の割合の問題は、どの学校も似たようなです。ただし意外にLAやMIAMIが韓国人の割合が相対的に低いと言います。南米系やサウジアラビアの学生が多く、ヨーロッパの学生は、夏休みに短期研修をしているケースがあります。学生は親切で仲のいい雰囲気です。

-----------------------------------------------------
波士頓是一個小而歷史悠久的城市,比起其名聲,更給人小規模的印象。然而,這裡有美麗的建築物和公園,在美國更是相對友好安全,適合居住的城市。雖然公共交通設施稍微老舊,但是地鐵非常發達,搭地鐵去波士頓的其他地方都很方便,但對於搭乘公共汽車通勤的學生,交通還是略為不便。另外一個缺點是,大部分的租金較為昂貴,如果透過MINI KOREA 等社區了解並找房子的話,也許能找到比起想像中更划算的房子。另外也聽說冬天時隨著不同的地方而會比較寒冷,即使是現在天氣也相當地冷。

EC波士頓語言學校位於市中心,不但地理位置方便,周圍擁有良好的環境以及設施。老師們雖然有小小的差別,但比較下熱情活潑且教學能力強。當然有時課程內容也會無趣,有覺得沒有什麼幫助的講義內容,班級氣氛不太好的情況,但是我想不論是哪個語言學校都會有這樣子的問題吧。

至於語言學校,我想給予學校滿意的評價。在學校放學後經營的課後活動好像很不錯,但是很可惜地是我沒有參加過。像是跳傘或是參觀尼加拉瓜大瀑布,紐約參訪,暢貨中心等很有趣的活動。當然這些活動都是需要另外付費。

至於韓國人的比率......取決於不同的季節,特別是不同的班級中也會很不同,但我覺得韓國人的比例算是相當高的。聽從舊金山和紐約轉學過來的學生說,韓國人比率高的問題,不論在哪個語言學校都有,也許只有LA或是邁阿密相對地韓國人比率較低。另外從南美和沙烏地阿拉伯來的學生也很多,在歐洲利用假期來這裡進行短級語言進修的人也很多。學生之間大致上相處融洽,氣氛很好。

TOEFL, GRE를 들었습니다.
사실 이학원에 온 이유는 internship을 위해서였는데,
다음주부터 일을 시작하게 되었구요.
학원 규모가 작지만, 작은만큼 저처럼 시험준비를 하는 학생에겐 유리하다고 할 수 있겠죠. TOEFL이나 GRE를 가르치는 선생님은 같은데, 수업이 괜찮은 편입니다. 하지만 학생수가 변동이 심하기 때문에, 학생수가 많아지면 자연히 능률을 조금 떨어지는게 사실입니다. 하지만, 학원규모가 그다지 크지 않고, 아직 유명세가 덜하므로 크게 걱정은 안해도 될것 같구요. 
현재 학원이 규모를 키우고 있습니다. 보스턴 중심가에 건물을 하나 사서 클래스도 늘리고, 심심찮게 지하철에 학원 광고도 보입니다.
불만사항중 하나는, 컴퓨터 시설이었는데, 현재진행중인 규모증강 프로젝트와 함께 늘려나갈 계획이라더군요.
사실, 인턴쉽을 목적으로 다닌학원이라서 저는 크게 신경안쓰고 다닐 수 있었습니다.


----------------------------------------------------

TOEFL、GREを受けました。 
実際、この学校に来た理由は、インターンシップのためでしたが、 
来週から仕事を始めることになったんです。 
学校規模が小さいが、小さい程そのような試験の準備をする学生にとっては有利であると言えるでしょう。 TOEFLやGREを教える先生の授業は良い方です。しかし、生徒数の変動が激しいため、生徒数が多くなると自然に効率が少し下がるのも事実です。しかし、学園の規模があまり大きくなく、まだ有名ではないので、それほど心配はしなくてもよいかと思います。 
現在、学校は規模を広げています。ボストン中心部に建物を一つ購入しクラスも増やし、退屈させぬよう地下鉄に学校の広告も見られます。 

苦情の一つは、コンピュータ施設だったのですが、現在進行中の学校規模の強化プロジェクトと一緒に増やしていく計画だそうです。 
実際、インターンシップを目的に通った学校なので、私は気軽に通うことができました。


-------------------------------------------------------


我聽了托福還有GRE的課程。事實上我報名這個語言學校是為了參加實習,並且從下周就要開始實習了。
學校的規模雖然不大,但是對於像我一樣參加考試準備課程的學生而言,反倒是有利的吧。托福和GRE課程是同一位老師,課程算是不錯。但是因為學生人數很常變動,如果學生變多的話,自然地效率就會降低。然而因為學校規模不是那麼大,不至於因為學校很有名氣而受到連累,這點倒是不用擔心的。
現在學校正在擴張規模中。在波士頓中心買下一棟建築物擴建教室,在波士頓的地鐵也不時可以看見語言學校的廣告。
覺得比較不滿意的地方的話,就是電腦設備,還有現在擴大規模的課程和計畫。
事實上我是因為實習計畫才報名這個語言學校,因此上學時對語言學校之類的並沒有十分在意。

ボストンはうるさくなく、落ち着いた良い街です。

大都市ではありませんが、便利だし、歴史が感じられるし、とても居心地が良かったです。
冬は景色は綺麗ですが、とても寒いです。かぜを引かないように気をつけました。
学校はそんなに大きくはないですが、私にはちょうど良かったです。
クラスは大体10人前後で、毎週月曜日に生徒が出たり入ったりするので、そこまで仲良くなれない生徒もいました。
でも滞在期間が長い生徒とはかなり仲良くなれて、一緒に勉強したり、遊んだりしました。
学校では有料ですが、観光等のアクティビティーも開催してくれるので、よく利用しました。
自分で手配するより便利だし、先生達がついてくれたりもするので、安心です。
本当に居心地が良かった、というのが感想です。また行きたいです。

ゆりの

ボストン校に半年間留学しました。

半年という短期間なこともあり、より集中的に勉強できる集中英語コースを選択しました。

ボストンはニューヨークほどの大都会ではないので、
落ち着いて勉強も出来ますし、ニューヨークへも比較的簡単にいくことが出来るので、
週末などは大都会生活も楽しむことが出来ます(笑)

授業もすごく楽しかったです。
初めは自分の英語力のなさに失望して嫌になったりもしましたが、
先生がすごくおもしろくて生徒の関心を引くように工夫してくれているので、
なんとか私もモチベーションを保って勉強できたと思います。
クラスの友達にも恵まれて、毎日楽しく過ごすことが出来ました。

滞在は、シェアアパートを選びました。
シェアメイトも留学生だったので、家でも常に英語を使う習慣が身について、それも会話力の上達に繋がったと思います。

それでも私の実力はまだまだですが、ここでの経験を生かしてこれからもがんばりたいと思います!
