Students focus on the four key building blocks of language: reading, writing, listening and speaking.

謝承恩

卡普蘭國際英語,整體我很喜歡,老師很親切,如果你有什麼不懂,老師會用最簡單的單字和肢體語言跟你解釋,讓你能很容易知道,學校也提供很好的學生休息室,給我們可以吃午餐及跟其他學生聊天,每一個月學校也會舉辦活動,讓我們去參加。
原本我一直煩惱,我的英文說得這麼爛,來到一個人生地不熟又語言不通的國家,只有我一個人沒有認識任何人,我該怎麼辦,直到我真的來到了這裡,我很慶幸有這機會自己也沒有放棄這個機會,來到這裡發現我之前所想的都是白擔心了,雖然英文很爛但只要你試著說加上肢體語言,別人都是聽得懂得,我收穫最大就是,不管想做什麼事,不要放棄,做就對了。踏出台灣才知道自己的不足,台灣有很多地方還沒這麼進步,這可能就是增進國際視野吧,真的很棒的留學經驗。

1年間語学留学をしました。
とても楽しく勉強が出来ました!
というのも、クラスメート、講師の先生方、スタッフの皆さんまで
とても親切でフレンドリーなので、英語が初級レベルから始まったのであまり話せなかったのですが、
クラスメート、講師の先生のおかげでこの1年間でだいぶ実力が伸びました!
特に会話力はとても伸びました。
授業でも発言の機会が多いのですが、クラスメートとしゃべったり、
私は1年間ずっとホームステイをしていたので、自宅に帰ってもホストママが話し相手になってくれたので
自分でもびっくりするくらい会話力が伸びました!

私はみっちり英語の勉強がしたかったので、集中英語コースに通っていました!
授業は6つのレベル分けがされているので自分にあったクラスで勉強が出来るし、
少人数なので質問もし易かったです^^
