On September 27, I visited a Washington
State University. There are many international students who came from many
countries. Fortunately, I could talk with two Chinese and one Saudi Arabian. I
spend a great time there.

Firstly, I was impressed by a system of
this University for international students. That is Intensive American Language
Center system which has 6 levels and after graduating from IALC system, they
can formal enroll the Washington State University. There are 12 to 16 students
in each class, so there are students who came from many kinds of counties. I
thought that this system is similar to our school, Mukogawa Fort Wright
Institute expect a nationalities. I think both schools are really good for
students who want to learn English.
Secondly, I was moved by importance of
English through conversation with IALC students. At lunch time, I talked with
two Chinese boys and one Saudi Arabian. We are different nationalities, so I
thought to communicate is difficult. However we can communicate easily because
we can speak English. At that time, I was really impressed by using English.
Also, I thought that speaking English means we can communicate with people all
over the world. How superb that we speak English!!!
Thirdly, I was surprised with students in
IALC motivation. They all have higher motivation also they have big dreams. I
didn’t have an exact dream so I was upset about my dream a little. However, I
could learn how important success and my goals are from Saudi Arabian’s words.
He said to me like this, “Nothing is achieved without effort”. I really agree
with his words. After I listened to these words, I have raised my motivation.
We should not stop making effort no matter what.
In conclusion, I could learn that fabulous
IALC system, importance of English in the world, and important things in my
life through these amazing opportunities. I won’t forget this experience
forever.
