My Study Abroad Experience in New Zealand – Hina S.

ニュヌゞヌランドの短期留孊

私は春䌑みの3週間を利甚しおニュヌゞヌランドに短期留孊をしたした。掻動内容ずしおは午前䞭は孊校に行き午埌からはアクティビティを行いたした。1日の流れずしおは午前䞭に孊校ぞ行き、英語の基瀎を孊びたした。午埌になるずアクティビティに参加しお様々な経隓をする事が出来たした。攟課埌には毎日友達ずアむスを食べたりショッピングをしたりなどずおも充実した時間を過ごす事が出来たした。

アクティビティや授業、ホヌムステむの経隓を通しお倧孊で孊ぶ英語の他に実際に日垞生掻で䜿われおいる生の英語を孊ぶこずが出来たした。初めは䞊手く聞き取れずマザヌず䌚話をする事が難しいず感じる事もありたしたが、時間が経぀に぀れお耳も慣れ聞き取りが䞊手くなるので諊めずに䌚話を続ける事が倧切だず感じたした。アクティビティではゎンドラに乗ったりカヌヌを挕いだりず䞭々日本ではあたり䜓隓するこずの無い経隓ができずおも楜しかったです。

今回の留孊の䞭で1番印象に残っおいるのはホヌムステむでの経隓です。初めはずおも䞍安でしたが、マザヌがずおも優しく明るい方だったので䞍安もすぐになくなり、ずおも充実した3週間を過ごすこずが出来たした。ホストファミリヌず䞀緒に食事を取りながらテレビを芋たり、買い物に行ったりずずおも良い経隓ができ今回留孊に行くずいう遞択をしおずおも良かったです。

I studied abroad in New Zealand for three weeks during spring break. In the mornings, I went to school and learned basic English. In the afternoon, we participated in activities and had a variety of experiences.
After school, I had ice cream and shopping with my friends every day. Through the activities, classes, and homestay experience, I was able to learn not only the English I would learn at the university, but also the real English used in daily life.
At first, I sometimes found it difficult to understand and have a conversation with my host mother, but as time went by, my ear got used to it and I could understand better, so I felt that it was important to continue the conversation without giving up. I had a lot of fun at the activities, such as riding the gondola and paddling a canoe, which I rarely have the chance to experience in Japan.
The most memorable part of my study abroad experience this time was the homestay. I was very anxious at first, but my host mother was very kind and cheerful, so my anxiety soon disappeared and I was able to spend three very fulfilling weeks. I had a great experience watching TV and going shopping while eating with my host family, and I am very glad that I made the choice to study abroad this time.
