Location
Accommodation
Students have choices of living in off-campus
residences or Homestay houses. For students who prefer living independently,
off-campus residences have more privacy and give students opportunities to meet
people outside of the campus. The school also arranges homestays for students
who want to experience local culture and practice English in their daily life
as a member of a family. Students can make their housing arrangements as early
as possible due to the limited amount of space available
Surrounding Area
The school is located in Wimbledon, a popular
and beautiful suburban community close to London. Wimbledon has been
internationally known as the home of the “Wimbledon Tennis Championships”.
Wimbledon is also only 20minutes from London by train, and it is known for its
relaxed but friendly atmosphere. Students can easily find shops and restaurants
located near the school. The school is situated in a quiet and safe residential
area where students can relax and study enjoying beautiful sceneries. CES
Wimbledon center offers the best of both London city and beautiful Wimbledon
suburb.
Facilities
The school has 11 bright and comfortable rooms
along with a student lounge with TV and study area, listening center, computer
room and more.
Activity
Students can always engage in diverse outdoor
activities in Wimbledon, or go out to London and enjoy shopping, touring,
exploring restaurants, going to parties, and many more.
I went to CES for 6
months to take Intensive English course. Wimbledon is little away from London.
It’s really quiet there, so it is a good environment to study. The city is
really clean and beautiful. The residence area is even pretty too. Moreover, London
is really close to the city, so you can travel to London any time. I was
worried because I studied with American English style, and it would be hard for
me to adapt to a proper English in England. That was nonsense, now I speak and understand
British style English. British accent is really charming. Intensive course
consists of 30 lessons per week. The course is really focused and because the
teacher is native, it is easy to learn English. Teachers encouraged me to speak
more and to be confident in English. The focus of the study consists
confidence. Throughout the course, I got close to many friends and I was
invited to parties. It was really fun. My English speaking improved very much,
and I wish I stayed there for another half a year, that would have improved my English
dramatically.
저는 윔블던 CES에서 6개월간 집중 영어 프로그램을 들었어요. 윔블던은 런던에서 조금 덜어져있는 도시인데 런던보다 조금 조용하고 공부하기에 편안한 분위기에요. 도시는 굉장히 깨끗하고 정말 예뻐요. 주택가를 구경하기만 해도 기분이 너무 좋아질정도에요. 런던도 가깝기 때문에 주말에는 런던에 가서 놀기도하고 바닷가에 가서 놀기도 해요. 한국에서 배우는 영어는 미국식이라서 영국식영어에 적응하지 못할까봐 걱정했는데 지금은 완벽하게 영국식영어를 하게되었답니다. 영국식영어발음이 정말 매력있는것 같아요. 집중영어 프로그램을 일주일에 주 30레슨을 듣게되요. 전반적인 영어수업인데 아무래도 네이티브에게 직접 배우니 수업을 들으면서 영어실력이 쑥쑥 늘었어요. 수업을 시작할때 선생님들께서 자신감을 갖으라고 항상 말씀하셔요. 이 프로그램의 목표가 자신감을 갖고 영어를 사용하는 거거든요. 매일 꾸준하게 수업을 듣고 학교 파티에도 가고 학교에서 사귄 친구들과 영어로 계속해서 대화하면서 자연스럽게 영어랑 가까워지고 말하기 실력이 엄청많이 늘었어요. 6개월만 더있었으면 더 완벽하게 영어를 다루게되었을텐데 그점은 좀 아쉬워요.
I studied in
Centre of English Studies (CES) Wimbledon. I was going to go to London, but
because London is quite expensive, I chose a city that is a little further away
from London. Wimbledon is much quieter than London. It is only 20 minutes away
from London by train, so it was easy to go to London in weekends. Next step was
choosing an institution or a school. I knew that CES is virtually everywhere,
so it is well known, so I thought it would provide an adequate English courses.
CES programs were brilliant too, I took Intensive English course, and the aim
of this course is to boost confidence in English. The program makes you speak
out loud in front of class and people. For example, you can talk about what you
saw on TV last night, or a movie, and also have a discussion. You also get to
speak about the book you are assigned to read, and sometimes students talk
about just daily life. As results, you just get to speak a lot, and this helps
you to have confidence in English and your speaking naturally improves through consistent
speaking. Of course there are grammar, reading and writing classes, so it isn’t
all speaking. Moreover, you don’t have to worry about your English level, I was
too, but when you get here, you have to take a level test. So you get assigned
to suitable class, and if you are still not confident with your class, you can
start from level 1. Furthermore, surely you have to focus in class, but what’s
more important is to have fun and enjoy your life in Wimbledon, because your English
naturally improves through practice with real natives here. Trying not to think
you are ‘studying’ is the key. If you just accept the English and be confident
with speaking to strangers, English is no problem. I strongly recommend
Wimbledon CES!
저는 CES 윔블던으로 어학연수 다녀왔어요. 런던으로 가려고했는데 런던으로가면 생활비를 너무많이 쓰게 될것 같아서 런던에서 조금떨어진 윔블던으로 갔어요. 런던의 도시느낌과는 조금 다르게 조금더 한적하고 조용한 동네에요. 20분이면 런던에 가기때문에 주말에는 런던에가서 놀면되요. 어느학교로 갈까 고민하다가 아무래도 CES는 다른 지역에도 있을만큼 크고 믿을만한 것 같아서 CES로 정했어요. 생각보다 프로그램이 굉장히 탄탄하게 구성되있었어요. 각 프로그램마다 조금씩 배우는 내용은 다르겠지만, 제가들은 인텐시브 프로그램은 어느정도의 기초적인 영어공부가 되어있는 학생들이 듣게되는데 영어에 자신감을 갖고 말할 수 있는 능력을 길러주는게 가장 큰 목표인 프로그램이에요. 그래서 끊임없이 말할 수 있도록 학교에서 지도해주셨어요. 예를들면 티비쇼를 본다거나 영화를 보고 토론을 하기도하고 책을 읽기도하고 그냥 일상적인 대화를 하기도하고 계속해서 말을 하기때문에 스피킹이 안 늘수가없어요. 물론 본 수업에서는 문법,리딩,작문 모든 부분을 공부하구요. 영어를 너무 못한다고 걱정하지 않으셔두 되요. 저도 처음에 영어를 너무못해서 걱정했는데 먼저 테스트 보고 반을 나눠요. 영어에 너무자신이 없다면 1레벨부터 시작하면 되는거구요. 그리고 수업시간에는 집중해서 공부하는게 당연하지만 그외의시간에는 수업에서 들었던 내용이나 영어공부에 연연하지말고 그냥 자유롭게 나가놀고 생활하면서 영어를 사용하는게 좋은 것 같아요. 너무 영어를 공부라고 생각하면 더 스트레스만 받더라구요. 그냥 영어를 계속 내 언어처럼 사용하다보면 자연스럽게 몸에 베게 되거든요. 어쨋든 CES 정말 좋습니다!
