My best experience in IH is going to steveston. That’s because it was very fan to see a beautiful view and walking along the sea.
And I found many Japanese stores, I was glad.
I had Michael's Mid-Intermediate class.I liked the many different ways to learn English in this class.For example speaking, listening, reading and writing.In addition Micheal gave me a lot of pair work.This made me relax.I also had Jordan's Grammar&Writing class and Focus on Speaking class.In these class I liked that I could learn English by playing games.
I enjoyed after school activity for one day.Then I could make new friends and I had more opportunities to speak English.I had a great time playing volleyball with everyone.
The classes were good because we all were on the same level because of the test at the beginning. The lessons were also interesting and varied. The teachers were always friendly and helpful. The location was ok but I think some parts of China Town aren‘t really beautiful so you had to be careful on your way to school. Unfortunately, I didn't take part in any activity, so I can‘t rate them.
Show details » Read more...I took many different types of classes. At first, I was interested in J-shine class and I learned about how to teach English. It can be learned in Japanese, however I could do practical training in Canada that was a great experience. Also I participated Cambridge preparation, which was difficult and challenging for me, but also good for learning different ways to learn English. I really appreciate teachers because they tried to understand me, even though I couldn’t speak English well. In addition, other stuffs and classmates helped me lots. I learned a bunch of things in international house.I wish I will come back one day!

This experience was very nice for me, since it allowed me to learn basic concepts and rules of English, I was able to reinforce technical business concepts and I feel happy for the treatment and attention that were measured, both by teachers and administrative personnel.
