    When we asked many students what they thought about social enterprises,96%students responded positively andThe intention is good, but it won''t be easy.”they said..I heard that there are many social enterprises among Japanese companies.In fact, research found that many Japanese companies make their own social contributions.I think it''s best to learn what should be learned and exclude what should be excluded.

     

    -No stress — just enjoy yourself and study English, that''s all!

     

     

    The area I was dispatched to was located in Cebu City, Philippines.First,,I am grateful to Korea Gapyear for continuously supporting me when my abilities were lacking.It was a language school sent with the purpose of improving my abilities rather than solving social problems, so it didn''t hold much value,It was a place where many students and teachers constantly made efforts to communicate.

    The early and late-mid periods of my internship all followed the same schedule.Every morning6o''clock30took a vocabulary test at :30 and, 8classes started at 8 o''clock9after finishing the ninth period,5it''s 5 o''clock and I eat dinner.After that,6from 6 o''clock8I studied by myself until 8 o''clock and8o''clock15took a sentence test at :15 and, After that, I memorized and did extra studying to prepare for the morning vocabulary test.

     

    Before departing, I worried about how much I could learn at this language academy.I was also worried whether I could reach the level I wanted during my gap year.So before going, I planned out each week.The first week was an adjustment period, 2the second week was mainly focused on grammar. Studying with this plan made my learning more efficient, substantial, and satisfying. What I liked most was that English came out naturally without me realizing it.

     

    8at the language academy for weeksinternshipThis internship was really helpful to me.

    At first, using English that I hadn''t used before was very difficult. I blamed myself a lot and questioned myself day by day. And I thought about giving up, but I decided to see it through to the end.. Since I couldn''t memorize vocabulary, I decided to instill positive thoughts in myself. And I worked like crazy. Fortunately, because I worked hard at the beginning, I later reduced the time needed and gained confidence. This program gave me confidence in English, and it also gave me new goals. Over the next few months of preparation, I will work hard to create the future I want.What I learned at the language school is that if you make an effort, nothing is impossible..

      

    8Weekly internship, It was such a short time.. Friends from many countries, including the Korean and Japanese friends I lived with at the language school, left me with many memories,, Since we spoke only in English, the vocabulary I had worked on at the beginning was very helpful.. I had discussions with various people on a range of topics, and when we talked about the work we did in our own countries and the majors we studied, I felt a variety of impressions..

     

    And when I asked many students what they thought about social enterprises,96%of the students responded positively and The idea is good, but it won''t be easy.” they said.. I heard that many Japanese companies are social enterprises.. In fact, my research found that many Japanese companies engage in social contribution on their own.. I think it''s best to learn what should be learned and leave out what should be left out..

     

    And I wanted to do a formal internship, but unfortunately I couldn''t.. Although I was not an official intern, I made an effort so I would not regret it as much as an official internship. Thank you once again for giving me this opportunity.
