colleges, is consistently rated as one of the world's most livable cities and one of the
safest major cities in North America and its

for international students. The school is only minutes from the city’s financial, entertainment and shopping districts. Many
cities’ attractions, including art galleries, sports venues, theatres, libraries and museums are within walking distance from

I wasn’t sure
which ELS I wanted to go to, but I decided to go to Toronto ELS at last, since
the city. My brother used to homestay in Canada, so I had an idea of going to
Canada someday too. I was struggling between Vancouver and Toronto.
There were 3
Japanese in my class, it was assuring to have some of people from my country. We
helped each other out and hanged around together. We also established a fun
rule for ‘not using Japanese in classes with a penalty of $1 for each Japanese
word. That helped me to improve my English level. Small-sized classes also gave
us a mild pressure to use only English in the classroom. Although I stayed for
only 3 months in Toronto, the time I spent there is very meaningful for me.
_______________________________________________________________ ELS 語学学校はたくさんあるのでどこにするのか迷ったんですが、まずはやっぱり有名な都市ということでトロント校に決めました。兄がカナダでホームステイをしていたので、カナダに行こうとは思っていたのですがバンクーバーとトロントどちらも有名なので、どちらにしようか迷っていました。 でもトロントが比較的日本人が少ないということだったのでトロントに決めました。クラスに日本人は3人ほどだったのですが、まったく日本人がいないよりも安心で、たまにわからないところを教えあったりしてとても良かったです。授業中は日本語を使ったら、1ドルずつ出すようなペナルティーを自分たちだけで作ったりして、、とっても楽しかったです。私は特にスピーキングが伸びました。少人数制で日本人も多くなく、自分たちだけでルールを決めて、英語で話すしかない環境だったからかなと思います。3ヶ月という短い期間でしたが、トロントでの語学研修は有意義な時間でした。
_______________________________________________________________ ELS 어학원은 많이 있기 때문에 어디로 할지 고민했지만 우선은 역시 유명한 도시로 가려고 토론토 로 결정 했습니다.형이 캐나다에서 한달동안홈스테이를 한 적이있어서 캐나다에가는 것은 생각 했습니다만 밴쿠버와 토론토 둘 다 유명해서 어느 곳으로 할까 망설이고 있었습니다. 클래스에 일본인3 명 정도였는데 전혀 일본인이 없는 것보다 안심 하고가끔 모르는 곳을 서로 가르쳐 주기도 하고 매우 좋았습니다.수업 시간에일본어를 사용하면,1 달러 씩 내는 페널티를 우리끼리 만들거도 하고매우 즐거웠습니다. 저는 특히 말하기 가 늘었습니다 .소그룹이고 일본인도 많지 않고 우리끼리 일본어를 쓰지 않게 노력해서 영어로 말하는 수 밖에 없는 환경이었기 때문 그런 것 같습니다. 3개월이라는 짧은 기간이었지만 토론토에서의 어학 연수 는 의미 있는 시간 이었습니다.
