Dominion General English
was really fun. It makes you get interested in the English study. Also because
the class is categorized with the students’ level, it isn’t too easy or too
challenging. There are 20 lessons and 25 lessons, I though 25 was too much for
me, so I took 20. Morning class 3 hours and afternoon class 1 and a half hours.
Morning class is mostly grammar and vocabulary, and afternoon class is mostly
speaking and communication. The class is really active, so it isn’t boring at
all and teachers are very enthusiastic. Students also get involved in many
activities that teachers prepare. In Fridays, there is a pronunciation
correction class, but it’s a free class, so students watch movies, have free
topic discussions etc. I really loved Friday classes. The nationality ratio is
like 50% Eastern Asian, 50% Middle Asian and European. I was shy at first, but
when I got to know friends from other countries better, I was able to
experience different kinds of cultures. The school provides home-stay or
residence outside the campus. I was going to home-stay, but I wanted to stay
with friends and make memories. Thus, I stayed in the residence. The school is
near the city center, so there are many restaurants, cafes, and places to hang
around. My experience in New Zealand was awesome.
도미니언 general english 수업은 정말재미있었어요. 영어에 대한 흥미가 생길 수 있게 해주고, 학생들의 수준에 맞추어 꼼꼼하게 수업을 듣게 되요. 20레슨, 25레슨이 있는데 저는 25레슨은 조금 부담스러워서 주 20레슨으로 들었어요. 오전수업 3시간, 오후수업 1시간 30분을 듣게되는데 오전수업에서는 문법이나 단어공부를 위주로 하게되고 오후수업에서는 회화표현이나 영어로 의사소통하는법에 대해서 배워요. 수업도 지루하지 않고 굉장히 활동적이라서 선생님들도 재밌게 가르쳐주시고 학생들도 적극적으로 수업에 참여하는 분위기에요. 금요일에는 특히 발음 교정을 받기도하고, 영화를 보고 토론하기도하고, 자유롭게 프리토킹을 하는 시간을 갖게되는데 저는 특히 그시간이 재미있어서 매주 금요일이 기다려지기도 했어요. 외국인 비율은 거의 한국, 일본, 중국인이 50프로정도되고 50프로는 중동, 유럽쪽인것 같아요. 처음에는 외국인들이 낯설어서 그래도 아시아인들끼리 친하게 지냈는데 시간이 갈수록 유럽에서온 친구들이나 중동지역 친구들과도 친해져서 정말 다양한 나라들의 문화를 겪을 수 있었어요. 학교에서는 홈스테이, 아파트 등등 제공하고있는 숙박시설이 꽤 많아요. 저는 홈스테이를 하려다가 아무래도 친구들하고 같이 지내면서 추억을 만들고 싶어서 교외아파트에서 지냈어요. 유럽2, 일본인1, 중국인1, 저까지 5명이서 같이 지냈는데 서로 좋아하는 코드가 잘맞아서 재밌게 보냈어요. 그리고 학교는 오클랜드 시내 중심에 위치해있어서 먹을곳도 많고 놀러갈곳도 많아요. 뉴질랜드 유학에 대해서 정말 후회하지 않고 잘 다녀왔어요.
