Island Hopping
By: Joe Dae Seop

When I was still in Korea, I thought that if I’d go to the Philippines, I could snorkel and see Nemo. The time came when I could experience these things. Last night, I was looking forward to island hopping like an excited child. The destination is Olango Island. It sounds fun. I couldn’t wait and I went to bed with a good feeling.

My Experience in CELI
By: Dang Thi Doi

When I arrived in CELI three months ago, I couldn’t speak English and didn’t understand anything. At first, I felt very bored and stressed in group class. My teacher and classmates spoke about many things and I didn’t understand anything. I was very sad and I thought that it must be very hard for me to study English. But I have self-confidence. My teachers help me a lot and I practice everyday. Now I can understand English and I have improved my ability in speaking. I’m very happy and thankful to my teachers.
