WHY GEOS?
I am studying English, because I need the language for my future job in International Trade, in
Mexico. My first impression was that GEOS was a “comfortable” school; I made so many friends so quickly.
I decided to come to GEOS because think GEOS is the best option. First, GEOS has a good reputation. My
consulate said that GEOS was a very school. It was a choice between GEOS and another school, and I chose
GEOS. The pronunciation is very difficult for me, but I try and practice in my homestay with movies, so
that I can improve. My English has improved a lot. When I came here, my English was 10%; I only knew a
few words. Now I know more words, and more grammar. Study tip for GEOS student is try and try again,
because all students make many mistakes. Don’t worry, just try, try, and try.

I used to study English at GEOS Japan then I had known GEOS Calgary by the leaflet about the
study abroad. In GEOS Calgary, teachers and classmates are very friendly so I can study English in relaxed
atmosphere. I take care to watch TV and try to speak English more to have a chance to improve my English.
The purpose of my studying English is that because I would like to communicate with another country
people in English and I’d like to use English for something volunteer work. My Homestay host mother is
very kind so I am having enjoyable homestay life. GEOS is very close to train station so it’s convenient to
commute to school. I think, the size of the school is suitable. Our classmates are all friendly. I think, I am
not good at level 4 in listening and speaking but I will try to keep up with the class. Calgary is very safe and
people are friendly. GEOS is an openhearted school. You can’t improve your English without speaking English so If you come to GEOS,
you should try to speak English actively without fear of committing mistake.
