Time to Say Goodbye
The good thing I remember about my trip to Australia is that I have met friends from many countries and learnt a lot about their cultures. I have also found Australian culture very rich. The teaching was fun with my first teacher, Alan who did not depend a lot on the text books. Alan gave us many worksheets. We have enjoyed many activities like discussing aspects of other students’ cultures. We have been to many places. In my school EF International Language School I attended English and business classes. The first trip was with Alan, our English teacher. Alan took us to the Art Gallery and on our way there we visited many other historical places around. We had also a trip to the Blue Mountains and that was one hour and a half by car from Sydney. It took us about thirty five minutes to walk down the mountains but we got back again in half a minute by train. Although it was a very tiring walk, I loved it a lot. We have also visited Featherdale Wildlife Park. We saw there many types of Animals that you can only see in Australia like Kangaroos and koalas. I have also gone on my own trips with my friends. I have also visited Sydney Aquarium.

IAT Conference is an Excellent Idea to Share Experiences
I have enjoyed my trip to Melbourn. We stayed there for forty days. I slept all day at first day of the trip because I was very tired. The next day the family I am going to stay with took me to the City by train and showed me Taylor College. The place I was going to attend classes at. It was such a wonderful experience for me. We had the best teachers. I have also attended a leadership course. Every Monday we went to a different place in Melbourne. The family I stayed with was originally from Malta. They were very nice to me. I went to three field trips that I enjoyed a lot. I want to continue my studies there in Australia.

The most interesting thing for me in my trip to Australia was meeting friends from different countries. I have gone to many places in Australia. At first I was shy of meeting the family I am going to stay with there but they were very friendly. They said to me that my English is great. The next day I went to school to take a test to specify my level of English. We started school at 8.45 every morning. The trip to my school takes about one hour. First I take the bus for half an hour then I had to be on a ferry for another half an hour. It was very enjoyable to be in such a multi-national class. I learned a lot from my first teacher but she had to go after five weeks and another teacher came. That teacher was not as good as the first one. I used to travel to Lakemba to eat Arabian food there. My new friends from the school invited me to a birthday party. I went to the party with my classmates Yuki and Heari. I had a lot of fun and I learnt how to depend on myself. How to live on my own and how to spend my money wisely. I can say now that my English is much better now.

Australia Has Been a Very Good Educational Experience
I really enjoyed this trip. I have learned a lot of things from it. The teaching methods were good. The teacher has used many useful ways to explain things in a clear way. The time I spent with the home stay family helped me to develop my spoken English. Australia is a multi-cultural country so I got to know more about the other counties like Italy and Japan. I have gone to many field trips. One of them was to the Blue Mountains. The view over there was so charming. The green colour was everywhere. One nice place I visited was Sidney Aquarium. I have seen there many aspects of marine life in Australia. I also had time to go out with my friends and hang out internet cafés and restaurants. In the weekends, we used to go to other suburbs like Iakemba , Banstown, and manly Beach.

I have a New Friend
We had lots of fun there but we did not forget the educational part. There were many good things in Scotland. I learnt there to take responsibilities for my actions whether good or bad. I had to interact with people I have never met which is good for my communication skills. I learnt a lot about aircrafts. Things I didn’t have even the tiny idea about it in the first place. Actually learning a new thing is fun . We went to the Concord Hunger and saw other planes. We had fun by being on a flight where you are the Co-pilot. We had lots of field trips. They were both fun and learning. We had a great residence at Kilgraston School in Perth, Scotland. Our teachers were good teachers Mr. John and Mr. Greg. At the end I would love to say that I had a great trip and I would love to do it again after I graduate from IAT.

Field Trips to Learn
I went to the UK this summer. The weather was cool. I studied in the Capital, London. Exactly at South Bank University. In this University, I have found that the best method of teaching English is called learn to play. First they tell you about the rules of English. Once you know the rule you will be able to play the game. I spent there about forty days. I met lots of new friends from all over the world. I have also seen lots of good teachers there. We visited many interesting places there. I hope I can go back to the UK next Summer.

I have Found You
We had a very nice trip to Australia. We went to Australia to improve our English. I had to attend classes at two different cities. What happened is that I attended classes for two weeks in Australia Perth but they had to transfer me to Sydney because they didn’t find home stay for me in Perth. I stayed in Sydney for four weeks. The thing I enjoyed most in Sidney was the Public transportation. You can use it to go anywhere. It was very easy to go to school. I was a little bit confused at the first day of school because it was a mixed class, boys and girls in the same class, but gradually I got used to it. Every class had about 18 students. In Sydney I went to many places like the Opera House, Darling Harbor, Bondi Beach and many other places.

UAE Students Discover Australia
Australia is a very good country if you plan to complete your studies abroad. My trip was very interesting. I learnt many things from this trip. Things I did not know before. I found Sydney a very nice place to study. I lived there with a big family from which I learnt a lot. I feel that I have improved my English and learnt about a new culture. I have learnt that helping yourself is very important. It was very difficult for me to use the public transportation means at the beginning but later everything became very easy. The School took us in many field trips. The trips were both about study and having fun.

Play to Learn or Learn to Play
We really enjoyed the trip to Scotland. It was interesting. We stayed at a boarding School called Kilgraston School. It is surrounded by a beautiful garden with a big football pitch, basketball court and a tennis court. There was also a big ranch with many beautiful horses. The school is in a town called “Bridge of Earn”. It is a really nice place to visit and there is a lot to see. We woke up early everyday to go to Perth City. Our classes were in Perth College. We had two teachers; Mr. John and Mr. Greg. They taught us more about airplanes and their parts. We really enjoyed it. There were a group of interesting Arab and Spanish classmates. We have also visited many towns like Dundee, Edinburgh and Perth. We went to many field trips and we completed many class assignments. The trip was amazing. We will miss that school and its people.

Our Class
The trip to Australia was fantastic. I have met many new friends some were Australian and some were Asian. We have come to learn English but we ended up learning a lot more than how to speak English. We went to many parks, beaches, and museums. The weather was very nice. I stayed with an Australian family. They were so funny. There were father, mother, and two kids. The father works for a company but the mother works at a gas station. The kids are still at school. One of the beautiful memories is when we went to the Blue Mountain. It was huge. We managed to climb part of it. After that we went to Featherdale Wildlife Park. It is like a zoo. The following week I went with my friends to the Taronya Zoo by the ferry to go there. The trip to the Gold Coast was very beautiful. Now I can express myself in English and communicate with people without fear of making mistakes.
