Where are you going for your next vacation? Then how about going to an overseas (海外) English language school, for example in the USA or the UK? Many schools offer short courses (课程) for students of all ages, from seven to seventy years old! There are schools in small country towns, on college campuses, or in the middle of big cities.
Foreign students can stay in school buildings or with local (本地的) families. Living with a family can be fun and can really help you learn. Just think梱ou’ll get at least two hours a day of breakfast and dinner conversation with native (当地的) speakers of English!
Classes are usually small, with eight to ten students. Most afternoons you’ll have a choice (选择) of swimming, soccer and other outdoor games. The schools also arrange (安排) activities like day trips to museums and parks. You’ll have a chance to improve your English and have fun at the same time.
