Elementary School in Japan

Elementary School in Japan

Studying English is important. Japan has plenty of famous companies. But Japanese children are decreasing, and Japanese population is also decreasing. So there is a limit of Japanese market. Everything such as working population, customers, gross demand, and the like are decreasing. Japanese companies should expand abroad. English is the common language in business. It is an advantage to speak English when job hunting. Some Japanese elementary schools have started using English in class. In the future I want children in all elementary schools to learn English.
But I can’t speak English. I have studied to read English but not speaking English is useless to business. I’ll work with foreigners. It’s necessary for me to speak English fluently. › Continue reading

It was a sunny day in CELI where students were busy studying English. Trang, a new student – a pretty girl from Vietnam had just arrived. She stayed in the cafeteria to take a quench. Woo Sung, a Korean guy approached her.

Woo Sung: Hello. You’re a new student, right?
Trang: Yes. I just arrived here last Sunday.
Woo Sung: I see… me too!
Trang: Oh, really?
Woo Sung: No… Actually, I’m just kidding!!!
Trang: You’re hilarious! And you can speak English pretty well!
Woo Sung: Yes, thank you. I have stayed here for 9 months already. That’s why I thank my teachers in CELI for this.
Trang: Hmm… Yeah, I heard teachers in CELI are more excellent than in any other academy in the Philippines. › Continue reading

I want to go Bohol. So now, I will just try to plan for the Bohol trip. Bohol is not very far from Cebu. So, if you stay in Cebu like me, you can go to Bohol easily but you know, the security of Philippines is not perfect. So I need a companion. Fortunately, I already have my husband.

Poems from Literary Arts Students

sea from the mountains

sea from the mountains

I saw the sea far from the mountains

A small island appeared from clouds

It was blue as her eyes

It was beautiful as her face

It was lonely as me

Because she was far away from me Forever

Last Saturday all students joined activities. Actually I don’t like sports so I didn’t think of joining but I was motivated to join our activities. I arrived in Tambuli beach at 8:40 by jeepney. Jeepney always surprises me because I can ride or get off anytime, anywhere. It is small but it carries many passengers. Tambuli beach is very beautiful. Blue sea, white boats, children playing at the sea shore and people swimming. I’d like to just have a relaxing time. I walked around the beach and took pictures with Dianna, Ann, Johnny, Joy and Lynn. It was the first time I met Johnny and They’re from Taiwan. Johnny is funny and friendly.

CELI – SPORTS

CELI – SPORTS

The things that we can benefit from sports are various. In general, many people do the sports to get good health or strengthen the body. But, in fact many sports affect the personal character without expecting. In my case, when I was a junior high school student, I went to the Karate school. Karate means that two persons compete to get the battling score like a campoo match. Karate methods make us teach how to protect and attack somebody. That training is to strengthen the muscle and stretch many body parts. We can easily get the strong body.

Besides, it is possible to get the good morale through the Karate match. In Karate match, it’s possible to admire the rival because the rival makes us do the match. In Japan, that traditional idea is very important. Spontaneously we get that good morale. In my second case, when I was a high school student, I went to the rugby school. As you know, rugby needs to run and tuckle with brave hearts. This sport is not only to strengthen the body but also enrich one’s own morale. Sometimes we advance by sacrificing our own body. › Continue reading

We are having sports festival nowadays. I think it is a good time for us because our body needs to exercise but unfortunately, we can’t do it here in CELI. Almost all students are busy. They have to do something. For example studying or hanging out with someone or drinking. And our life pattern is the same day by day. We always wake up in the morning, go to school, study and sleep. This is our life pattern. We are fed up with it. And we spend a lot of time with our friends but new students couldn’t do it. That’s why we need something that makes our relationship better.
