Momoka's IH San Diego Experience July 21 - August 13, 2017

I've learned and experienced so much at IH San Diego.  In school, I could make friends from all over the world.  They were very friendly and kind.  They always helped me whenever I had anything I didn't understand.  Also, teacher and school staff taught me a lot of things and supported me.  So, I could spend comfortable and good time.  In addition, I enjoyed many kinds of activities.  They were very good experiences for me and became good memories.

In the homestay, I enjoyed talking and watching movies with my host family.  My host father took me to the beach and showed me how to surf on weekends.  I was able to experience the culture of USA.  So, I had a great time with my host family.

Finally, I enjoyed studying abroad.  I couldn't speak English well, but thanks to school staff, teachers, friends, and my host family's support, I really enjored learning English.  So, I enjoy speaking English more than before.  I'm glad to have studied at IH San Diego.

Two week language study  日本語は以下 At IH San Diego, you can join a class that matches your English ability. My English isn’t great, so I was a bit worried about this. But, once I realized that if I told the teacher about the things I didn’t understand, they explained everything very clearly and carefully so it was easy to understand. In class, we would usually practice communication with our teacher and classmates, watch videos, go outside and interview people, and various other things that made class fun and interesting. My classmates were from many different countries, so I was able to learn about cultures from around the world. I was able to use my time not only to learn English, but to learn about cultures around the world. In the afternoons, I would mostly join the activities that were going on at school. There are many different activities planned for the afternoon that were really fun. I was able to do things that I wouldn’t have been able to do just as a tourist, and

It was my first time to study abroad to US. I have studied for one month in IH San Diego. When class first began, I was very concerned.  But I was able to experience so much. I made a lot of friends.  My friends and my teacher s were very friendly and kind. They helped me every day. And also I felt encouraged and comfortable because there was a Japanese staff member at IH San Diego. It has been a long time since I studied English last time. But it was very fun. I hung out with my friends after school every day. We went to sightseeing, for example to LA and so on… I took a part in school activities many times. We went to Sea World, Disneyland, and the San Diego zoo…so many places! The staff asked me to pick any places where I want to go, so I could visit various places. Especially my favorite place is mission beach.  Because there is very good sightseeing. It was the best scene I have ever seen. I recommend Coronado island too. There is a beautiful ocean view and wonderful

At IH San Diego, classes are divided into different levels, so you are able to learn in a class that is at the right level for you. Also, the teachers are really nice, so even people with low confidence can have a fun time learning. During class, we did listening, speaking, grammar of course, but also did things like presentations and watched movies. We didn't only learn English though, as we also learned really interesting things about other cultures and countries from our teachers and classmates. After class, we also had set activities where staff would bring us to San Diego tourism spots and to see movies. These activities were the place that we most had the chance to interact with other classmates. If you have some idea of something you'd like to do or go, they will try their best to help you. With my host family, on days off we would go to the beach, play beach volleyball or go cycling. It was a lot of fun spending free time with them. While I was in S
