語文沉浸課程

Apart from enabling me to realise my aspiration to become a teacher, the BEd(EL) programme also provided me with a wide array of learning experiences which have greatly enriched my university life . The overseas immersion programme was one of the most rewarding experiences I had. Having the opportunity to live and study in Canada in the summer of the third year of my study, I have learned about the education system in this country and gained first-hand experience during my placement in local secondary schools.

In order for us to really “immerse” ourselves in an English environment, each of us was placed in a host family individually so that we had more opportunities to communicate with our hosts. It was a very precious opportunity for us to improve our communicative competence in English and get to know various aspects of an English speaking culture such as lifestyles and ways of communication. 

I went to skydiving in Toronto during my Immersion.

Taken together with my friends Jessica and Scarlett, this photo was taken on a nice day with the good and comfortable weather outside Wellington waterfront. The sky was alluringly blue and the wind was gentle, which was the result of after a week of rain and storm. This little photo just remarked the commencement of this beautiful and amazing journey.
