Schools have a significant role in their students’ life.

To develop and to broaden their perspective, most students have difficulties in finding an English school which can mold them to become globally competitive in English.

I was motivated to learn English abroad but had trouble choosing which school to attend.
Many agencies introduced me different names of schools but I needed to consider many factors when choosing an academy.

Driven by her curiosity of WALES, a school that was introduced by my sister, I enrolled in this academy and stayed for 2months. I loved the learning environment for my teachers were good. “I like my teachers because they are kind, friendly, witty, approachable and professional. ”

I took the ESL program and was grateful that I had improved in English. I also developed my social skills when I went traveling around together with some students. Visiting Vigan, Hundred Islands, San Fernando and other places in the Philippines was a great opportunity for me because it provided real- life application of what she has learned.

I recommend WALES as an effective learning English school because the teachers and the administrative staffs are very kind and approachable. If I would be given the chance to continue studying English, I would want to be back because the school has become a part of my life and I want to cherish all the memories.

“To be able to learn a new language, you have to see it, listen to it, and speak it,” reas- suringly uttered Mo- hammed Abdulwali Ahmad Khashafa, in short, Moha.
This young man, who aspires to be a “secret agent”, deliberately explored his capabil- ities as he stepped into the Philippines. Fortu- nately, among all the schools in Baguio that he could have entered, he chose WALES. He was at ease to be welcomed by one of the school’s
agents, Rio, whose smiles gave him a heartfelt and inviting first impression. From then on, he knew he would feel at home at the academy.
He took the ESL Flexible program of the school where he was able to meet his 25 teachers in the span of 5 months. He believes that each person has their own unique qualities that he could learn from. They may come in a variety of faces but they can make learning an enjoyable and informative experience about life. They can bring out the best in you as much as amend the worst.
He saw how he and such things can be made better. He hopes to see WALES improve in the near future.

我曾到宿霧和碧瑤短暫旅遊,而在考量氣候和唸書環境後,我選擇到Wales唸書,而我認為這是個正確的選擇。

新生入學時需做測驗,學校會依學生程度給予分班。我報名的Power ESL有二堂團體課及六堂一對一課程。小班制的團體課,老師會選定主題請同學分享意見或互相辯論,在多次練習下,我不僅可以和外國同學溝通、且能自信的用英文在台上表達自己的想法。一對一的老師都很認真親切,在無壓力的學習下,我的聽說讀寫能力都有明顯進步。

學校對於伙食和住宿環境很用心,為了滿足不同國籍的學生,學校會盡量讓餐點有變化,週一到週五每天的打掃服務也讓人住得舒適。此外,我很喜歡和來自阿拉伯、日本、韓國同學們交流,這讓我體驗到不同國家的文化,課餘後和老師/同學們一同出遊,讓我留下美好的回憶。

以前由於死背書的緣故,我的多益成績卡在800分無法突破,然而我在回台隔天直接參加多益考試,居然獲得865分!我很感謝Wales在二個月間訓練我用英文思考,相信這種跨文化學習的經驗讓我的未來受用無窮。

此英語學院非常多元化,有來自各個國家的學生。與來自不同國家背景的學生聊天,除了增進英文的溝通能力及熟悉各國口音外,還可了解學習不同的文化。

這個學校有嚴格的EOP政策,上課的時間內不可使用母語溝通,這個政策讓我的英語口說進步相當迅速。

學校老師們的教學方法也相當有彈性,依照我的需求安排課程,並針對弱點部分加強。另一個讓我喜歡這間學校的部份是它座落於離市區不遠的全新大樓內,環境乾淨、設備新穎且現代化,餐廳與賣場均可步行到達,相當方便。
雖然目前只待了一個月的時間,但已讓我的英文口說部分進步許多。

”完整的生活機能“與”溫馨小學校“是當初我選擇WALES這間學校的兩大原因。如果你正在尋找適合你的語言學校,請不要錯過WALES!

• 完整的生活機能
學校周邊有各式各樣的餐廳和商店,步行15分鐘的路程就能到碧瑤最有名的SM百貨公司購物。如此方便的地理位置讓我可以隨時補給物資,或是在下課後到處晃晃來散心。這些優點在面對排山倒海而來的讀書壓力時起了很大的作用,讓我能夠釋放負面的情緒,重新整頓起鼓再次投入書海中。

• 溫馨小學校
我認為有兩大重要的因素影響學生的學習意願與表現:“完整的教學制度”和“正確的指導態度”。在這兩方面,WALES從沒讓我失望!老師們因材施教,準備適合學生的教材和教學方式,並在我需要幫忙時立即提供協助。這是小學校一大特色,可以隨時更新學生的狀況,用最快的速度去處理及改善。當我因為即將到來的雅思考試而感到焦慮不安時,充滿正向能量的老師們時時鼓勵著我。比起師生關係,我們更像朋友!

在學習雅思課程前,有先上了3周的ESL課程作暖身。接下來的7周內,我的英文能力大幅度地提升,雅思分數也從一開始的4.5進步到6.5。如果不是這些老師們的幫助,我無法單靠自己的能力去達成我的目標。衷心的感謝他們為我做的一切,以及給了我美好的回憶。
