커리큘럼 : FLS에서 가장 유명한 프로그램인 영어 집중 프로그램은 주 당 30회의
수업 원어민 교사에 의해 이루어집니다. 영어 집중 프로그램은 영어에 대한 종합적인 이해를 높이며 학생들은 세 개의 다른 수업을 체험할 수 있는데
이는 9단계의 수업에 포함된 종합 영어반, 다양한 주제를 탐구하는 선택반, 1년 내내 진행되는 아카데믹 워크샵을 포함합니다. 이 프로그램은 영어
말하기에 집중하여 학생들이 수업시간에 자주 영어를 사용하고 교사로부터 교정을 받을 수 있도록 합니다.
그리고 프로그램의 이름은 일반영어프로그램 (주20시간) (General English Program (20hrs/wk)) 이며 18 주 동안 다녀오게 되었습니다.
처음에는 루체른 대학교와 고민을 하다가 위치적인 부분도 그렇고 학교가 마음에 들어서 이 곳을 선택하게 되었습니다.
일단 저를 간략하게 소개를 하자면 저는 영어를 잘 하지 못하는 평범한 대한민국의 사람입니다.
어려서부터 주입식으로 영어를 배우긴 했지만 영어를 사용하려고 하면 머릿속에 멤돌고 당췌 입으로 잘 나오지 않았습니다.
그 부분이 너무 스트레스였고 사회생활 하는데도 너무 힘들더라구요.
그래서 선택한 프로그램 이었습니다.
이 프로그램의 장점은 초급부터 고급까지 있는 프로그램은 각 수업에 15명 이하의 학생들과 9개의 레벨로 진행된다는 점입니다.
처음에 학교에 수업을 참석 하게 되면 일단 내 레벨이 어느 것인지 알게 되는 것 부터 시작이 됩니다.
그 부분이 제일 마음에 들었던거 같아요.
한국에서 어학원이나 영어 학원에 다녔는데 레벨이 많이 다르지 않아서 누구는 잘하고 누구는 잘 따라 오지 못하는 경우가 많았는데,
잘따라 오지 못하는 케이스가 저 였습니다. 일단은 낮은 레벨로 시작하여 나중에는 올라갈 수 있었습니다.
저랑 같이 수업을 받던 친구들도 각 나라에서 온 친구들이 었는데 레벨도 비슷하다보니 도움을 주고 도움을 받기도 했습니다.
그리고 같이 수업 과제를 하면서 친해지며 영어도 많이 늘었던거 같아요.
영어를 배우러 갔지만 외국인에 대한 어려움을 없애기 위해서 간 것도 있으니까요 좋았습니다.
학습 워크샵은 발음 클리닉, 회화 클럽, 숙제 지원, 컴퓨터 실 등을 포함하여 주 당 다양한 학습 옵션을 제공받고 핵심 수업은 말하기, 듣기, 읽기와 쓰기에 초점을 두고 있습니다. English Everywhere 프로그램은 학생의 학습 과정에서 호스트
패밀리, 활동 가이드와 직원과 새로운 환경과 상황에서 영어를 사용할 수 있도록 한 학기당 Language Extension 활동에 관련하여 매주
핫 시트를 포함하였습니다.
체계적인 거 같아서 너무 좋았습니다.
숙박에 관해서는 홈스테이와 학생 아파트가 있었지만 저는 자립심을 키우고 그리고 친구들을 더 많이 사귀기 위해서 학생 아파트를 선택하였고
많은 학생들도 그렇게 선택을 하더라구요. 그래서 같이 수업 들었던 친구들이 같은 동이라서 친하게 지낼 수 있었습니다.
메인 캠퍼스에서 걸을 수 있는 거리에 있는 아파트가 위치해서 걸어 다니고 어려움이 없었습니다.
LA 근처에 위치하다보니 디즈니랜드, 유니버셜 스튜디오, 헐리우드, 베벌리 힐스 등도 가까워서 종종 시간이 나면 나가서 구경도 하고 그랬어요.
위치적으로 참 마음에 들었습니다.
원 없이 구경 하고 왔네요.
외국어로써의 영어교육에 힘쓸 뿐만 아니라 문화적 측면의 교육까지 같이 배울 수 있었던 그런 어학연수가 아니었나 생각이 됩니다.
