今回は、PINES内でも人気者で、アクティブだったタケさんから感想文を英語で頂いたので、ご紹介します！
※PIAとはPines International Academy(PINES)の略です。
Group:OPIc2
Studying period: 2011-08-22 ~ 2012-03-02 ( 7 Monthes )
I think PIA is the No1 English academy all over the world. I am very happy to come here. I can say that PIA has twenty advantages.
1.Teachers: I am a teacher in Japan, so I know how difficult teaching is. Besides, teaching foreigners is more difficult. However, PIA teachers can teach English to them with very good skills. I really respect them.
2.Classes: PIA has a lot of classes. We can attend at least 8 hours. Furthermore, it has 1on1 classes, 3on1 classes, and group classes. We can improve any area of English skills.
3.Hotel: Our sleeping place is very near the campus. Moreover, housekeepers clean our room. We feel comfortable.
4.Food: We eat meals in the school cafeteria. It is very delicious. I am perfectly satisfied with this food.
5.Cost: Tuition fee is cheaper than other countries. Now, I don’t have a salary, so this is also a good situation.
6.Rule: I love PIA rules. I follow these rules. Human beings are weak, so we need strict rules, which help us focus on studying.
7.Environment: Baguio’s temperature is very comfortable. It’s not hot, not cold. We don’t need air conditioner.
8.Students: PIA is a little strict academy, so students become eager to study. Other students study hard and it affects other students to study hard also.
9.Test: A test is important to know ourselves better. PIA has three tests in a term. It is a good chance.
10.Department: PIA has three departments. Based on the exams, we belong to a different department. In addition, new students go to Romel building for 1 or 2 months till they easily adapt to a new environment.
11.Cleanness: Everywhere is clean in PIA. I feel grateful that cleaners clean classrooms, corridors, stairs, and so on.
12.Laundry: We live here, so we have a lot of laundry. There is a laundry service here in PIA. In just two days, they can finish washing our clothes.
13.Puregold: If we want something, we can buy it in Puregold. We can go there anytime. It’s very convenient.
14.Gym: We can study English very hard every day, but just studying and studying is not good for our health. On the same floor, there is a gym. We can work out every day.
15.Volunteer; PIA has a volunteer team and we can join volunteer activities. I was a volunteer leader. I went to an orphanage every Sunday.
16.Event: Every month, PIA has a graduation party. During the last party, I was the host. Two terms ago, I joined a part of it and I had a chance to sing and play the guitar.
17.Korean friends: Fortunately, most students are Koreans. So, I have no choice but to speak English at all times.
18.Internet: Nowadays, we need to access to the Internet. PIA has many places to access to the internet. We can also use Wi-Fi.
19.Music: I think most Filipino like music. Since all the teachers in PIA are Filipino, they taught me many English songs and I was able to improve my guitar skills as well.
20.Option classes: We can choose many option classes. It has many kinds, such as, guitar class, movie class, dance class, business English class, and so on. Especially, one of the option classes-Monitored Self-Study is very helpful. We can study in the assigned classroom till late at night.
Before ending my impression, I just want to say PIA is an awesome academy. That’s why many students extend and come back to study again. Some students go to other countries like Australia, the USA, or England and they come back to PIA because it is not enough to study English in other countries. I am full of gratitude for PIA. Thank you for everything.
