Finally, I finished my great classes at EAP II!!
When I failed IELTS that made me keep studying and felt ashamed for myself, I didn't want to join new class honestly. At that time, all of the things: my misunderstanding that I studied hard, the fact it was not enough for the pass and difficulty that I had a big gap with other students studying at UQ made me anxious. That was so tough for me I wanted to run away from this study abroad.
However, I now think this way I've studied was also great as well as going to the university (I don't know it well), because I learned a lot of important things thanks to my main teacher, David.
As you can see (if you've taken his classes), he definitely is the most strict teacher of all ICTE teachers. The confidence I felt after EAP I was completely broken by him with underlining every single line of my essays meaning many errors as well as some comments saying, 'very very poor essay'.
At first, I felt down, but as time went by, it turned into heartbreak that helps me study harder than before. As a result, I could beat him (maybe), because he said to me, 'You're a good student' when I received a good result at the final exam. Perhaps, I need strict teachers like him when studying. Thank you, David!

Before the internship, I want to focus on speaking and listening, which are my weaknesses and I dislike. I am not happy and used taking with new people or those who I don't know so much. But I need to do it, because it is my weakness. Also, I want to concentrate on translation. I heard that the class in the next session will have time to watch films, so I'm excited about it.
Hang in there!! We're almost done our studying abroad program.
