I finished the first semester of my senior year in the university, and I wanted to apply for an internship in Australia, so I wanted to study English before doing so. Thus, I took 6 months course in International House Sydney. EAP is the course I took, it is an academic English program. It is suitable for those who want to study academic or business English. EAP has listening, speaking, reading and writing. Each section has level up to 3, and a level course lasts for 3 months. I took 1 level, 2 level; so total 6 months. My English improved very much. The course has writing essays, discussions, presentations and translations. It was similar to a university study, but more dynamic. Consequently, through these varieties of projects, my English improved naturally. The best part about the institution is that there are so many international students. I never had much chance to contact with foreigners, but when I was there, I made so many friends from different parts of the world. It was awesome. I think having a chance to meet so many people with different nationalities is such a great experience. I did not home-stay, I stayed in the residence with a Japanese and a Spanish. Living with new people is also a great experience too. I really loved International House, and I still remember all those moments I had there.

저는 대학교 4학년 1학기를 마치고 호주에서 인턴을 하기위해 그전에 6개월간 영어를 배우고자 인터네셔널 하우스에서 공부했어요. EAP는 아카데믹 영어 프로그램인데, 외국에서의 학업이나 영어를 사용하는 학업을 위해 듣게 되는 수업이긴하지만 저에게도 호주에서 생활하는데 있어서 필요한 영어이기 때문에 EAP프로그램을 들었어요. 스피킹,리스닝,리딩,라이팅 수업 모두 듣게되고 한 레벨당 3개월인데 저는 1레벨 3개월, 2레벨 3개월 이렇게 6개월을 들었더니 영어실력이 굉장히 많이 늘었어요. 수업내용은 에세이를 쓰기도하고, 토론을하기도하고, 어떤 주제를 놓고 연구한 후에 발표하는 수업도 있고, 번역하는수업도 있고, 대학수업이랑 비슷하지만 좀더 다이나믹했어요. 이렇게 다양한 강의내용을 통해서 자연스럽게 영어실력이 늘었어요. 그리고 가장 특이한점은 정말 셀 수 없이 많은 다양한 외국인학생들의 수에요. 말로만 들어보던 나라의 학생들을 직접 만나고 관계를 맺으면서 신기하기도하고 재밌었어요. 살면서 이렇게 다양한 국적의 외국인 친구들을 사귈수 있는 것도 정말 좋은 기회인것 같아요.저는 홈스테이를 하지않고 롯지에서 지냈는데 저, 일본인, 스페인친구 이렇게 세명이서 썼어요. 외국인친구들과 같이 살아보는것도 좋은 추억이 될것 같아서요. 인터네셔널 하우스에서 만난 친구들, 그리고 경험했던 많은 일들이 아직까지잊혀지지않네요..

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

私はオーストラリアでインターンシップをするために、その前6ヶ月間英語を習うためにインターナショナルハウスで勉強しました。EAPはアカデミック英語プログラムなんですが、外国で学業や英語を使う研究とかをすることになった人のために作られた授業なんですが、私もオーストラリアで生活するに必要だと思ってこのプログラムを選びました。スピーキング、リスニング、ライティング、リディングの授業を受けるし、各レベルは3ヶ月ずつ受けます。私は1レベル3ヶ月、2レベル3ヶ月受けたら英語がすごく上達しました。授業の内容は、エッセーを書いたり、討論をしたり、あの主題を決めて研究したあと、それについて発表する授業もありますし、翻訳する授業もあります。大学の英語授業とすこしにていますが、もっとダイナミックでした。こういう様々な講義を通じて自然に英語能力が向上しました。そして一番独得な点は、すーごく数多いいろいろな国から来た外国人の数でう。本とかテレビでしかみなかった国の学生と直接に会って友達になったりすることが不思議で面白かったです。一生こういういろいろな国の外国人友達と付き合うこともすごいいい機会だと思いました。私はホームステーでなく外国人3人と一緒に住宅で暮らしました。インターナショナルハウスで会った友達、そしてそこでの色々な経験はぜったいに忘れないと思います。

在International House -雪梨上完課,整個人都變得更活潑了!學校每個老師都有自己的教學風格,課堂上不會僅僅只是老師說、學生聽,而是用互動的方式讓我們享受學習英文的樂趣。在International House -雪梨上課的期間,早上讀寫和下午聽說各有不同老師,所以隨著等級的不同,我總共上過8位老師的課。通常老師喜歡讓學生以團體或小組的方式進行課程的討論,如果沒有發言,老師還會特別和你對話!有些老師喜歡用遊戲比賽的方式讓課堂變得有趣味性,班上的同學也會為了贏得比賽而相互合作,絞盡腦汁全力以赴。也有老師會藉由課堂的主題帶我們深入其境,而不是紙上空談。我印象最深刻的莫過於下午聽說課程時,老師前一週在課堂上教我們一些法庭上會用到的相關單字,然後隔週就帶我們到實際的法庭觀摩審判,結合實際生活體驗,學習的印象更深刻,而不是只侷限在教室裡。除了課堂上的學習生活多采多姿之外,學校的設備也是一應俱全,除了有電腦教室可以讓你搜尋作業尚需要的資料和家人聯繫之外,我也很喜歡學校的圖書館。學校內的圖書也有依等級區分,所以不用擔心找不到適合自己閱讀的書本。更棒的是,除了圖書和雜誌之外,也有很多媒材資源可以外借,圖書館對我來說簡直就像是一個寶庫。
除了有著歡樂的課堂時光之外,每週五還有全校性的大活動-畢業典禮,每個當週畢業的學生,只要出席率達到標準都會被授予結業證書,同時還會在全校師生面前發表自己的感言,很多同學講感言時不免都會哽咽,我還一直跟自己說,等到自己畢業時,絕對不能哭。只是,誰知道我除了哽咽之外還淚流滿面了,真的太捨不得學校的同學和老師了。
