My experience in CIA is very special for me. At first, I feel nervous because my English is not very good, and I don’t know many people here. But after few days, I start to feel more comfortable and I try to speak more English.
In CIA, I have many classes every day. My favorite class is speaking class because I can talk with teacher and classmates. Sometimes I feel shy and don’t know how to say, but teacher always encourage me to try. This make me more confident than before.
Also, I meet many friends from different countries. We eat together, study together, and sometimes go out after class. It is very fun and I can learn different culture from them.

Living in Philippines is also a new experience for me. The weather is very hot, and sometimes I feel tired, but I still enjoy my life here. The food is different from Taiwan, but I try many new things.
Even I have some problems before, I think this experience is very important for me. I learn not only English, but also how to be more brave and independent. I will continue to study hard and improve my English.
