In Korea, whenever I did something, I mostly received negative reactions, but in Europe, I was always praised and received positive feedback, which was great! Thanks to that, I feel like my personality has become more positive :) Now, I have confidence that I can do well on my own wherever I go, and I'm looking forward to my future!
Great value! Safely learning English in Malta, Europe! Yoon Ah Lee's review as Korea GapYear Participant |
# Hello! I’m a university freshman who went on a language study gap year in Malta as soon as I turned 20.
Hello! I participated in the 'Great value! Safely learning English in Malta, Europe!' program for a month in January,
I’m Yoonah, who has just become an adult and is about to start university.
I really wanted to travel abroad alone, and while looking for recommendations for a language study program,
I discovered the gap year program and decided to participate.
*For Yoonah, who wanted self-improvement and various experiences, there were personalized 1:1 missions provided daily, including activities to discover aspects of herself she didn't know about, and a gap year notebook to reflect and plan.
# I wanted to develop myself and have various experiences!
Before entering university, I wanted time to find myself and think about my career.
I needed self-development time to become a better version of myself.
Also, I wanted to live like a local, make foreign friends, and visit various tourist attractions to learn and experience many things.
I mainly referred to the materials provided by Korea Gap Year for my preparation to leave the country, and I was able to gather a lot of information through internet searches and YouTube.
# I met many wonderful people.
I remember the foreign friends I met during my language study in Malta.
It’s hard to pick just one person, I am so grateful and cherish everyone I met while participating!
So, I want to take on the strengths of all the friends I’ve met.
# I gained confidence that I can do anything!
In Korea, when I did something, I often received negative reactions,
but in Europe, I was always praised or received positive reactions no matter what I did, and it felt great!!
As a result, I feel like my personality has also become more positive :)
Also, through various experiences, I came to understand the saying that 'travel makes us realize how small a place we occupy in the world'.
As I mingled with friends from various nationalities, I naturally developed a global mindset, and my perspective on the world expanded.
Now I feel confident that I can manage well anywhere I go, and I look forward to the future that lies ahead!
# What is a day like in Malta?
I wake up between 6 and 7 AM, get ready for school, and board the bus at 8:30.
After arriving at school, I have my first class from 9:00 to 10:30, followed by a 30-minute break.
During the 30-minute break, I usually eat breakfast on the rooftop with friends,
go to a café, or take a stroll in Valletta.
After the break, I have my second class from 11:00 to 12:30, and then it's lunchtime.
For lunch, I sometimes eat out with friends, and other times I return to my flat to eat.
In the afternoon, I visit tourist spots with friends,
and in the evening, we go to pubs and clubs to have fun :D
# It's not too late for a gap year language study in Malta! Just go for it!
There is a famous quote by author Simon Raven: "Life is short, and the world is wide. Therefore, it is best to start exploring the world quickly."
As this saying goes, I encourage you to travel while you are still young!
Coming to Malta made me realize how small the world I have been living in really was.
And since you're leaving anyway, I hope you get to visit several places. Malta is a country with a variety of attractions :)
# My Tips for Preparing a Gap Year Language Study in Malta!
- Language
: English and Maltese are primarily used. Since English is widely spoken, there were no communication issues.
Additionally, by meeting friends from various countries, you can learn different languages as well :D
- Accommodation
: I lived in a shared flat (apartment-style accommodation) provided by the institution.
Since it is a living space with people of different nationalities and lifestyles, mutual consideration is very important!
- Meals
: I usually went grocery shopping and cooked my own meals. This saved a lot of money and improved my cooking skills.
- Things to Prepare
: I recommend definitely bringing an umbrella. It often rains a lot. Also, make sure to bring a hairdryer, and you don’t need to bring too many clothes!
