My amazing time in Cambridge

Food

The food is made very healthily by themselves, and on certain festivals they have traditional British food, which is very delicious. Breakfast is cereal with milk, orange juice .For lunch he will give you several choices you can choose from, or you can ask them to make you a traditional English cold sandwich

When you visit outside, they will give you a pack lunch usually sandwiches of different kinds, fruits and salads are very nutritious. Dinner is the richest in their family. Sometimes they make pizza. Because I am from China I have been encouraged to make egg fried rice . The whole family loved it. My favorite thing is their spaghetti tagliatelle,absolutely delicious!Sometimes they make fish  and chips . I have enjoyed every meal . 

 

Visit

On the first day I have been asked about my interests and what I prefer ,including your favorite foods, which are usually available .All the visits were planned with me . My favorite places were Car show at Chelmsford and Duxford Imperial Museum. 

 

Also I went to the gym on Wednesday and Thursday nights for an hour and also I  went the swimming pool.I have been cared for and looked after very well.

This family is very friendly. They have two children. The boy is called Andrew, the girl is called Emma. Andrew likes PUBG or Fortnite very much. Emma likes animals, gymnastics and reading.

My trip to Bournemouth

I really like this family and they have a lot of animals.Which I really love.My most favourite was the cat Luna.And she is cute.We did grammar:I wrote my dairy everyday about 2 pages and did a lot of grammar in «English in Mind».And on every test I get around 97%.We also did a lot of activities.First we went to “Thorpe Park”,it is my favourite park in the whole world!Becouse I prefer more scary attractions (better to say extreme attractions) and I really love this park.Then we went to Longleat and I saw my favourite animal — red panda.I was really happy.We had a lot of parties (and I had my birthday party too).We went a camping twice and to the beach.Bournemouth is located near the sea and we swam a lot.And another park which I liked too is “SplashDown” I was really excited to go there because I really love it.We went to a BBQ near the beach or somewhere else,because it is nice.I went with Ariya (She is the daughter of the teacher and she is 5 years old right now.The teacher has another daughter her name is Imogen and she is 2 years old right now too) to “Flambards” and we had a great time.I think that we will meet next year and have amazing time again (if not,more 4 or 3 days my mum and I will go together with Jayne’s family to Longleat again) ! 🙂

With Sophie in Wales

Amazing week!

Truly one of the best experiences of my life. I had been wanting to come to the UK ever since I was 10 so this was a dream come true. At first I was a bit scared that Cardiff wouldn’t meet my expectations but it absolutely surpassed them. I was also worried about having to stay with a family I didn’t know, but I felt welcomed and well received from day 1. 

I had so much fun with Sophie and the rest of the family. Some of my favourite activities were the visits to Cardiff Castle, St. Fagans and Principality stadium. However, I also enjoyed walking along the Taff and all the little independent shops in the city’s arcades. Despite doing classes in the morning and activities in the afternoon, I still had plenty of free time, which is always quite nice. 

Regarding the tuition work and the classes, I feel that I have learned a lot since I came here and I have improved in every way I aimed to do so. I loved working with Sophie and the fact that the lectures were adapted to my needs and interests. 

I learned about British and Welsh culture and history, made new friends… All in all, I had a wonderful time and I know I will remember this experience for the rest of my life and I hope to return some day.

Cambridge stay

Living Learning English Review:

 

Hello, my name is Arthur and I’m from Switzerland.I’m fifiteen.I really enjoyed my two weeks stay in Daniela’s family. My english has improved and I’m satisfied about it.

 

Study:

 

Everyday exept the weekend, I got up at 7:30, the lessons started at 8:15 and finished around 11:30. I think that these two weeks in Cambridge have been very useful, knowing that I’m going to be studying IGCSE’s next year, and it’s also a good experience. I practiced my writing skills a lot, and I think it helped me improve my english.

 

Activities:

 

Everyday, we went out to visit a different place. The father of the family: Derick, once took me to an aircraft museum. He knows almost everything about these planes: their history, what they were used for, the countries who used to use them, and much more.

 

Food:

 

The food was delicious. Daniela is a great cook. She makes her pizzas from scratch, which makes them particularly tasty. I really enjoyed them.

 

Family:

 

 

The Thakes are lovely. They were always there to help if there was any problems and they are very friendly. I spent a pleasant time with them during these two weeks in Cambridge.

Two amazing weeks in Leicester

Hello! I’m Niruta from Barcelona in Catalonia and I’ve been staying two weeks in Leicester living with my teacher Karen and her family.

For me it was a very nice experience where I learned english and also I got a lot of greats moments with this family. For example we went to visit Leicester City Centre and it was very nice and now I can saty that I’m an expert of Richard III and and also we went to the country side and we visited Sheffield.
With my teacher Karen she helped me and now I’m feeling that my english level it’s improving and for me this two weeks had been very helpful and has also helped me to consolidate basic concepts.
I recommend this type of course to people who want to learn english and live a period of time like english people.
I’m very happy of this new experence for my and I’m sure that I will repeat this great adventure again.
 
I will miss this amazing family!!!
 
Thanks for all.
