Learning English in Wales

Croqueta time;)

by

Hi! I’m Anna, I’m from Russia and I’m 15;) I was living in Wales for 2 weeks with my partner from Spain. She was very funny. We got on well. Also we were very lucky with the family. They are all kind and friendly people. I spent a really good time with them. Especially the youngest boy. He was really cool.He rolled up into his blanket and shouted that he is “croqueta”!!! Also we played water bombs throwing them to each other. We were all wet, but happy. Thanks a lot for my crazy time with this boy!My teacher has a nice dog Nala. I liked to play and walk with her. We did a lot of things together with the teacher’s family. We visited Bristol and Cardiff, went to the zoo and saw lovely Banksy’s graffiti. The most exciting thing we did, was paddle boarding. It wasn’t really difficult for me to do it, but quite interesting. Also we went to Sally’s friend’s house. She had a good swimming pool, trampoline and delicious apples.I’d like to say “thanks a lot” to my teacher for her patience, to her children for an incredible time and the weather because it was so hot and sunny. Thank you for this lovely holiday. I’ll never forget them.Thank your for your reading. Best wishes. Anna Salova

 

Two weeks in Wales. Spanish and Russian students.

Hi, I am Clara and I am from Madrid, Spain. I am 16 years old. I stayed two weeks in Wales with a crazy Russian student, Anna. We stayed in Sallys house with her nice family and her dog Nala. They have a very big house with a nice garden. My room is very comfortable.
During the two weeks I improved my English so much, above all in listening and speaking. I had a very good trip because we did a lot of excursions and I enjoyed them.

Anna and I became very good friends though sometimes it is difficult to understand her because we have different accents. I will keep in touch with her.
Sally is a good teacher and she also went with us to all the places that we wanted to visit. We went swimming, shopping, paddle boarding, we visited Banksy graffitis, riding bikes, the zoo, to the river…

I encourage everyone to do a course like this because I think that it is a very good experience where you meet many people of other countries and improve your english so much.
I will not forget this two weeks and I will repeat it next year!
