Yu Dong from KoreaHi everybody, how r u going??
케언즈에 도착한지 이틀만에 버스타고 Paul's 집에 온지가 엊그제 같은데 벌써 4달이라는 시간이 흘렀네요..
아..지금은 Paul's 집에 살고 있지는 않고요.Kewarra에 살고 있어요..
anyway,저는 Paul's집에서 7주 동안 공부했었는데요.(from..8th March to 25th Apirl)
정말로 운이 좋게 학생이 저 혼자여서 1:1수업해서 과외같은
느낌을 많이 받았어요..ㅋㅋ솔직히 한국에서 과외한것보다 싸게 공부했죠..ㅎㅎ그래서 영어실력도 자연적으로 늘었죠..
학생이 저혼자 여서 듣는것도 영어 말하는것도 영어..ㅜㅜㅋ처음에는 갑갑하고 처음 2주 정도는..그래도 익숙해지더라구요.
Paul 이라는 사람이 정말 좋아요.ㅎㅎ아버지 같은 느낌??그리고 Olga는 친누나 같은 느낌??ㅎㅎ
그래서 여기서 지내면서 우리집같은 느낌을 많이 받았죠...ㅋㅋ그래서 다른집으로
이사할때 슬펐다는..ㅜㅜ..anyway,제생각엔 케언즈에 있는 어학원으로 가는것 보다 여기서 공부하는게 훨씬
도움이 많이 될거예요..무엇보다 24시간 같이 있으므로 외국에 대한 문화나 아이디어 같은것도 훨씬 쉽게 접할수 있어서
처음 적응할때 도움이 많이 된다는..ㅎㅎ
아..그리고 무엇보다 제가 낚시를 엄청 좋아하거든요..Paul도 그래서 거의 이틀에 한번은 보트타고 강에가서 낚시하면서 5~6시간을
이야기 안하고 있을수가 없잖아요??ㅎㅎ특별히 캠핑.....that is really awesome!!!KK I cant never forgot it!!정말 강추 예요..
다른 워홀러가 즐기는 캠핑이랑은 차원이 다르다는...ㅋㅋㅋ
어어??이거 점점 글이 정체성을 잃어 가는것 같은,,,ㅎㅎ어쩃든,,저는 여기서 지내면서 정말이지 잊이못할 추억도 많이 만들었어요,,
그래서 이사해도 거의 매일 Paul's집에 간다는...ㅡㅡ;;ㅎㅎ
마지막으로 호주에 오시는분들 목적이 돈 또는 영어 공부이실텐데 여기서 공부하시면서 자기 컨트롤을 잘하시면 어학원 가는것보다
진짜 100배 좋은 효과 보실거예요..(100배는 오바인가??어쨋든 훨씬!!!)

Robin from KoreaHello I’m Robin Cho. It‘s been 11 months since my ex- girlfriends had made this name at ice-cream shop. I think you know^^ I’m a student of Olga and Paul. It’s been 3 months since I had met them. Thanks to them I can speak English enough to talk to Australian and any people who use English. They are not only my teachers but also my good friends who I met in Australia. I hope that many Koreans can meet them and have a lesson with them. Fortunately they are trying to make a language school for every student. We talk to each other a lot of time so I know they will make a different type of school. It will not be just a language school. I’m sure that they will be your friends and family. They will let you know about Australian life, culture and everything that you want to know and have to know. Unfortunately I have to go back to Korea soon. Make a good memory of Australia! Think of it carefully. And you should know I’m not a part-timer. ^^
안녕하세요 전 Robin 입니다. 벌써 11달이 지났군요 제 전 여친이 이 이름 지어준지도 아이스크림 가게에서 ^^ Olga 와 Paul 을 만난지도 3개월이 지났군요. 아마 이 편지를 주는 날이 마지막 레슨일거에요. 길었지만 생각보다 짧은 호주생활 그래도 이 친구들 만나 영어 좀 하게 됐네요. 처음에 여기 왔을때는 정말 1년하면 영어 정말 잘하겠지 생각했죠. ㅋ 어느정도는 해요 외국인 만나 듣고 대화할 정도. 처음 기대했던 만큼은 아니지만. 좋은 기회인 것 같아요. 이들 학원 구상에 대해 많이 대화하고 충고도 좀 해주고 그래서 아는데그냥 학원이 아닌 가족 같은 느낌이에요. 수업 끝나고 서로 만나 술도 한잔 하고 재미있는 이야기 나누는 그런 친구! 한 곳에 옹기 종기 모여사니 뭐랄까 홈스테이 같은 영어 하기 좋은 환경! 일반 학원에서 느낄 수 없는 그 무언가….^^ 진심으로 하는 말입니다. 저 알바 아닙니다 오해 마세요 ㅋ쓰다 보니 왠지 알바 느낌 나네요. ㅋ 생각해 보세요. 이왕 language school 호주에서 다니실 생각이라면 정말 좋은 기회 인 것 같습니다. 아쉽지만 전 한국을 가네요. 부모님 친구 한국음식이 제일 그리워요 ㅋ 좋은 추억 만들어 보세요.!
Hi my name is Lera I am from Siberia Russia. I was Paul's student in Russia and then Australia at school in Cairns. My English is better now after staying with Paul and Olga for 5 weeks study. I enjoy my study with them because they are fun teachers and live in a beautiful house near beach.
I tell all students that Paul and Olga's small school is best way to improve English. They are kind and friendly teachers and always have time for me. We went camping and to the reef and Cairns zoo together and it was so much fun. There was only 4 students in my class and I had so much time to learn English.
Lera from Russia
Hello I am Yuri from Russia. I had great time with Paul and Olga at their school at their home. I not like big groups and I was happy in my group of only 3 students. My English has got better thanks to Paul and Olga. I learn good English that I can use every day. Paul is not only my teacher he is my friend and we had many good times together.
I am businessman and can say that Paul knows business good and I learn a lot from him to help my business in Russia. I will come and stay with them again next year.
I am older than most students but that not matter when study in small groups with Paul and Olga, we all have lots of fun and learn many things.
Yuri from Russia I needed English for my work, and I didn't have any idea, my level was "elementary". It was the reason, I thoguht travel around Australia and study in academy. But the true was, it didn't work I didn't learn english. At the begining I thought, that maybe the academy wasn't good, because there were a lot of people inside the class (+- 16 people), and I couldn't practice enough my English, (If you have lucky, you can say one sentence). It was , when I decided to change the school, but it happened again, my English it didn't improve. In fact I changed a lot of times of school, more o less all the school are the same, it is very funny (and sometimes even it doesn't funny), but you don't learn nothing.
Finally I decided "Sutdy and live my teachers", this experience it was complitly different, it was funny and in only one and half month my English improved a lot. I think this is a good way to learn English, in fact for me is the best way.
But in this way, it is very important the teachers because you are living with them.
I recomend you not only the way for learn Englih "Living with your teachers", I recomended you in special "Olga and Paul", they are very friendly, you can share with theirs a lot of differents things like dinner, go out cinema, camping...wheteher the true is you are all the day speaking Englihs with theirs, and they are funny and delighted, charming and good teachers. It was so easy live with theirs. Now, i think my Englihs is better and I have two friends more.
THANKS OLGA AND PAUL, I MISS YOU.
CARINA.Carina from Spain Without doubt the best way to learn english that I have tried is Cairns English School. I spent 6 weeks and it really worked. I needed to speak english to work in a intenational company and it was the pushing that I needed. Paul and Olga are very good teachers, and they spend a lot of energy adapting the course to make it easier for you. I strongly recomend this course.

Ines from GermanyAn ALLE die gern englisch lernen wollen mit Spass und
ohne Pruefungsstress
Ines 31 Jahre aus SachsenDie Entscheidung zusammen mit Lehrern zu wohnen und in dieser Umgebung auch die Sprache zu lernen, war meine Beste die ich je getroffen habe.
Fuer mich war es wichtig da zu lernen wo ich mich wohl fuehle, denn nur so kann ich alles geben um mein englisch zu verbessern.
Es macht der Mix, von privater Atmosphaere und der staendigen Hilfbereitschaft und Gastfreundlichkeit aus, was mich hier total wohlfuehlen laesst.
Paul und Olga sind immer daran interessiert, dass es einem hier gefaellt.
Sie nehmen einen auf wie ein Familienmitglied. Somit verliert wahnsinnig schnell die Angst, englisch zu sprechen.
Und das Vertrauen, was ich brauchte, weil ich ja nun doch weit weg bin von der Heimat, war ganz schnell zu den beiden aufgebaut.
Der Unterricht wird an das Interesse der Studenten angepasst. Sprechen ist hier an der fordersten Stelle, man hat also nicht so einen Lerndruck wie in den normalen Sprachschulen (ohne tests)Wir haben in unserer Klasse, was max. 5 Schueler sind, jederzeit die Moeglichkeit frei zu sprecchen ohne strikte Anweisung vom Lehrer.
Paul ist ein sehr aufmerksamer Lehrer und witzig zu gleich. Was ihn indem auszeichnet, denn er vemittelt einen auf ne feine Weise, was man falsch gemacht hat.:)Was mir aber besonders gut gefaellt, ist dass Olga (Sie ist Grammatikprofi) und Paul einen zeigen was es heisst in Australien zu leben, mit Erkunden der sehr interessanten Umgebung von Cairns aber auch von den Tablelands. Sowie der Pflege sozialer Kontakte bspw. bei BBQ (grillen) und campen.
Ich kann diese private Schule, hier in Clifton Beach, jeden empfehlen, der gern was neues kennenlernen mag, neben der Sprache auch die Lebensweise hautnah erleben will und sich trotzdem sicher und gut aufgehoben fuehlen mag (so weit weg von der Heimat).
Eure Ines
We look forward to hearing from you!
