My 4-weeks IPS course at Philinter was incredible. The classes were highly structured, and the teachers were extremely patient, professional and encouraging. Initially, I faced some challenges with my pronunciation and fluency, but the teachers tailored their lessons to help me overcome these hurdles. My speaking confidence has improved significantly in just one month.

Studying in the ESL course was a great journey, I faced a challenge with my speaking and grammar because I am too shy to speak. However, teacher here were very encouraging and provided useful feedback for students. So, I did improve in 1 month.

Teachers generally tried to use various strategies when I got stuck in my progress. They are always supportive and goal-oriented, therefore, I could trust and rely on them. One suggestion is intervals between classes should be extende since sometimes students cannot take a break especially when classes finish after the designated time. Another suggestion is that the school should provide wider desks in self-study room so that students can learn comfortably. Additionally, one thing that I want the school to consider is that some teachers provide IELTS study to the students that they are not in the IELTS course and do not pay for IELTS. I think it is unfair for the students who pay specific amounts of money.

The teachers are very dedicated to helping students learn. They explain lessons clearly, patiently answer questions and always encourage students to do their best. Their hardwork and care create a positive learning environment where students feel supported and motivated. However, the dining hall staff work very hard, but I think the food quality and variety could be improved.

Vietnamese

I had difficulty pronouncing the "th", "s", and "sh" sounds. To improve my pronunciation, I practiced regularly and asked my teachers to help me improve my pronunciation.

The Business English course was fantastic and very practical. All the teachers were supportive, professional, and patient. At first, it was a challenge for me to speak English confidently in front of people, but the teachers encouraged me every day. Through daily role-play exercises, I overcame my fear and significantly improved my workplace communication skills. Business English curriculum is well-structured, covering useful skills like small talk, making contact, and presenting feedback. The teachers addressed this by providing real-life scenarios and constructive criticism using the sandwich menthod, whcih allowed me to learn effectively in a practical environment.
