My Great School Life in Australia

Hello !  How's it going ?  Everyone from Kansai University, good job, IELTS test !  I hope that everyone is feeling good after IELTS test !!  By the way, today, I would like to talk about how classes are in a foreign country; Australia, at ICTE-UQ, and how it is different between Japan and Australia in the way of teaching, teachers, classmates and so on.  Are you ready ?  Here we go !

my extraordinary teacher

 First of all, classes in Australia are much more interesting than those in Japan.  To be honest, I'm not familiar with being taught about grammar in English.  Therefore, I have to know about technical terms of grammar now.  In Japan, I don't have any opportunity to learn such things.  Therefore, this is one of the interesting points for me.  Also, during classes, games are often held.  They are so fun !  Games are part of classes !!!  I've never experienced in Japan.  Here, this picture shows the teacher who I really respect.  Her classes were awesome !  I wanna be a teacher like her.

the University of Queensland

At ICTE-UQ, I met a lot of people who have various kinds of nationalities such as Colombian, Chinese, Korean, Indonesian, Saudi Arabian, Peruvian, Italian and so on.  So far in my life, I had less chance to talk with foreign people.  I can learn various range of cultural differences in food, lifestyle or the way of thinking.  Moreover, some students are already around 30 years old.  I was very surprised and impressed.  Such 30-year-old friends have their own admirable opinions and ideas.  I really respect them and I appreciate environment that I can talk with them.  Everyone around me are kind and nice!

However, most my friends will go back to thier own countries or change thier schools...  I  love them, so I feel sad and I miss them.  I reminded this proverb; "We never meet without a parting."  I believe that I will be able to see people again who I met here, in Australia.  Thus, I lead a marvelous life in Brisbane.  Anyway, I'll live one day at a time.  As you can see, I went to the Japanese restaurant with Kansai University students after IELTS test.  I ate so many delicious Japanese food.  I miss Japanese food...  I wanna go again !  Thank you for reading :-)
