I think WALES is the perfect school for people who want to learn English at their own pace.
My initial lesson schedule consisted of four classes in the morning and one in the afternoon. However, after taking four consecutive morning lessons, I found it hard to keep up mentally, so from the next day, I asked to move one lesson to the afternoon. I was very grateful that the school could adjust my schedule flexibly according to my condition.
All the teachers were friendly and conducted lessons tailored to my English level. Moreover, when I shared specific areas I wanted to improve, they provided training that focused on those points. After two months, I became comfortable speaking and listening in English. Learning the structure of English—such as intonation and speaking more fluently—and being able to put it into practice was a valuable outcome of studying locally, and I felt it brought about a big change within me.
In terms of daily life, I stayed during the dry season, so the weather was stable and very comfortable. There was a large shopping mall within walking distance, which made daily life very convenient. I also enjoyed going to nearby massage and Pilates studios, and during long weekends, I took bus trips to explore tourist spots a little farther away. My time outside of studying was just as fulfilling.
Additionally, having Japanese staff on-site meant I could ask questions and confirm school rules in Japanese, which made my stay very reassuring. I highly recommend WALES to anyone who wants to enjoy both learning English and living abroad in a relaxed and balanced way.
