<strong>GEOS</strong> Languages <strong>PLUS</strong> - Study-Work / Internship Program - Canada<br />

I chose this program<br />

because I want to get more<br />

working experiences and I<br />

want to have a chance to<br />

practice my English. Also, I<br />

can get money from work<br />

and learned how to work and<br />

communicate with people<br />

from other countries…not<br />

just with Canadian people<br />

but people from around the<br />

world. This program gives me good opportunities. It is<br />

really useful for me. I work in a hotel at the coffee shop.<br />

My job is not difficult. I just sell my product and but I meet<br />

a lot of people. I have to take care all of my customers, be<br />

friendly and have good hospitality. If you ask me about<br />

this question, I will say I used everything that I learned<br />

from <strong>GEOS</strong>; Grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation. I use all<br />

of them when I have to communicate with my customers.<br />

I would like to recommend this program because it is<br />

really useful if you want to see how good your English<br />

is after you have finished studying. As well, you will get<br />

some new experiences that you have never had before.<br />

You won’t get only money but you will get new friends<br />

and learn about people and other cultures from your coworkers.<br />

That’s the most important point why I chose this<br />

program.<br />
