ESL Instruction - My school's in Atlanta!

The first time I came the U.S, I prefer to live in Atlanta, GA because I had my family here and I wanted to study in this state. Then my uncle took me go to find a school for international student. I d'like to study English first and will get in University after I get Toefl score. I found a school that was near by Georgia State University in downtown of Atlanta with the name ESL Instruction & Consulting. I came this school to take a test to get in. And I passed.

Remember the time when I had just gotten the school, I was like very nervous with my English. At that time, I just a seventeen girl who didn't know anything about American life and until now I have been like a youngest student in this school. I even couldn't talk to my friends, my classmates and couldn't understand what my teacher was saying in class. For me, at that time, they spoke English so fast and I just wanted to speak like them. My international friends talked to me that "Don't worry, Ivy. You will get it soon. When I got here, I also couldn't understand anything." Actually, I still worried for my English skills. My listening was so bad and my speaking sometimes was wrong. When I was in class, I tried to get my teacher's mean. The first session like the hardest one to train my English. My teachers was very nice to me and my friends was very friendly. The director always helps me when i need help and the student advisor is also with me if I get some problem in school. They supported me a lot and my studying was getting better day by day. I learned so much good things from them.

My schedule for the first sessions was on Monday, Wednesday and Friday and they took me whole day with three classes. There are many classes that are seperated follow the level. I was studying many interesting classes like American Literature, Phrasal Verbs, Creative Writing except the classes which are about four basical skills like Listening, Speaking, Grammar and Writing. Now i get one is Moden Writing, it is interesting for me as same as my classmates.

Besides, every single session, there is a field trip that go to some place to play for fun, for learning together for all of tachers and studens here. I did. All of the field trips that i got were very fun. One more thing, in the end of each session, also we have a International Food Party that we make or cook some native food. That is very nice too.Thanks for my school about these.

Keep studying on like this, until now I have been here at the sixth session. I improved my English skills little by little, they are so much better than the day i didn't get here yet. And I got some many friendship and few best friend here. I will never forget what i study from this school and what you guys support me in the time i study here as same as my living in Atlanta.
