I needed a new change and opportunity because my confidence had dropped significantly, so I left for the Philippines. As I focused on studying English and adapting to local life, my mind shifted to a more stable state, and my confidence was greatly restored! I discovered a new side of myself that I didn’t know before :)

# Hello! I am a working professional who went to study English in the Philippines through a gap year!
Hello! I am a participant who recently went on a language study trip to the Philippines through a gap year program!
After quitting my job, I started having a lot of thoughts. I felt strangely down on myself and my confidence had taken a big hit. I didn’t even have the energy to look for a new job.Then, a friend told me that I seemed to need a new change or opportunity, and they recommended the gap year projects, which led me to participate in the language study trip to the Philippines!
* For working participants who wanted to improve their English skills and break free from their own limitations, activities that provided opportunities for new experiences, as well as customized 1:1 personal missions to help plan for the future, were offered daily, along with a gap year journal to reflect and make plans.
# Preparing for Language Study in the Philippines!
Although it was my first time staying abroad for an extended period, my desire to have a new experience was greater, so I prepared with anticipation. Oh, and even though I didn’t have enough time to prepare before leaving, if you can take your time to prepare, it might be good to study some basic English before going!
# I wanted to recharge my relaxation and confidence through this gap year language program in the Philippines!
I wanted to recharge my peace of mind and confidence during this gap year language program in the Philippines, and I wanted to show a positive attitude towards life. Also, since I'm going to a language school in the Philippines, I wanted to improve my English skills.
# I feel like it's been a while since I've experienced giving my best at something!
.jpg)
I feel like it's been a while since I've had the feeling of giving my best at something. While studying in the Philippines, I was able to gain confidence by tackling things I hadn't done well before, one by one. It felt like I wasn't a working adult but rather a student again, and I had a strong desire to study English, so at the beginning, I studied hard in the library right after my English classes. Through that process, I learned that 'if I focus on something, I can achieve it!' and it made me really proud!! :)
It was a really fascinating and fun experience to start conversations with friends who speak different languages while learning English together, even though it felt awkward at first. Since there was no special competition, I felt a pure friendship with my friends and teachers haha.
# People I Met During My Language Study in the Philippines!
.jpg)
The language school I attended in the Philippines had very few Korean students, so my Korean friends were particularly special to me. There were people who looked after me because I was worried about adapting when I first arrived, a younger friend who was very different in personality and instilled a lot of vibrant and positive energy, and another younger friend who, despite being eight years younger than me, was very mature and had a lot to teach me—all my Korean friends are memorable!
Also, my roommate Hena helped me adapt to school life at first! With Miko and Hina, who were really similar to me in personality, we had many serious conversations, Eddie who taught me how to swim, Mio who loved Korea so much that we became friends quickly, my first friend Sho, and Kihil, who was unexpectedly quirky despite his first impression, and Hiro, who had great manners and a cool image!
I really remember all my foreign friends and I miss them so much!! ㅎ
# The biggest gain I had through my language study program in the Philippines as a working adult was the time I spent getting to know myself!
Oneof the biggest gains after the language study project in the Philippines is that my mind has become more stable.And I've also learned a lot about myself, which is a big gain!
I don't think the person I knew before was the real me. There were tough parts in the process of accepting this at first, but once I realized, 'Oh, this is who I am,' my mind became more at ease.Also, I challenged myself to do things I had never tried before, like English and swimming, and by succeeding one by one, I gained even more confidence! Haha
# For Those Considering a Gap Year!

Leave your worries and concerns at home! Try to meet more friends wherever you go abroad! It's even better if you can prepare for the language aspect in advance!
When opportunities to have fun arise, enjoy them to the fullest, and don't be afraid to take on challenges you want to pursue! :)
# Recommended Travel Destinations in the Philippines!
1. Moalboal
: You can experience scuba diving and swimming in the sea, see sea turtles, and enjoy a relaxed atmosphere!
2. Boracay
: As a famous tourist destination in the Philippines, it's definitely worth a visit. The sea is incredibly clear and beautiful, and you can experience a variety of activities!
3. Resort Day Trip
: Even if you don't stay at famous resorts like Crimson or Plantation Bay, you can still use their pools and restaurants, and enjoy snorkeling at the private beach, which I highly recommend!
# My Tips for Preparing for an English Study Abroad in the Philippines!
- Language
: Personally, I think it would have been better if I had studied English a bit harder before going on my language trip! Haha
- Accommodation and Meals
: I noticed that the local academy in the Philippines tries to offer a variety of dishes from different countries!
- Essentials
: Make sure to bring any necessary medical supplies and medications. I also had personal slippers and a mini stand, which made my stay more comfortable.
For consumables, you can purchase them locally in the Philippines, so I recommend only bringing what you need for the initial period!
