リヨンカトリック大学に半年留学しました。リヨンはフランス第2の都市と呼ばれるほど大きな都市で、町並みも綺麗です。

交通の便もよく、不自由なことはありませんでした。
最初は慣れない生活のせいか疲れてしまいましたが、クラスメートとも仲良くなり、一緒によくフランス観光に行きました。
授業は人数が多かったのが残念ですが、授業の質が高くて満足しています。
日本人もクラスに5人くらいいたのですが、日本語で話していると先生に注意されるので、フランス語を話す練習が沢山できました。
授業中は辞書を使わないように言われ、授業についていくのに必死でしたが、
毎日宿題をやって復習していくと次第にフランス語に慣れて、授業もよく理解することができました。
留学する前にもフランス語の勉強はしていたのですが、やはり現地で勉強すると全然違うと実感しました。
フランス語しか話さない環境に身をおくことで自分の成長につなげられたと思います。

夏に留学しました＾＾

学校は大学のキャンパスの中にあります。
そのため、お昼は学食などを利用出来ます。
レベルが上がると選択授業が出来て、大学準備授業とかも受講出来たので
最初はいくつもりなかったのですが、受けてみたら大学もいきたいなと思ってしまいました。
でも年も年なので、ただ雰囲気だけ味わいました。
スピーキングやライティングなどの選択授業もあるので、
自分が強化したいものを選べて良かったと思います。
リヨンという町は住んでいても飽きないほど綺麗で、観光するところもあり、
楽しかったです。
ホームステイでお世話になった家族で年の近い方がいらっしゃったので
休日に一緒に出かけたりもしてとても楽しかったです。
ありがとうございました。

我在里昂天主教大學學習了半年。里昂是一座足以被稱為法國第二大城市的城市，城市景觀也很美。
交通便利，沒有不便。
起初我厭倦了對自己的生活不熟悉，但我和同學成了朋友，一起去法國觀光。
對不起，課程數量很大，但我很滿意課程的質量很高。
在課堂上大約有5個日本人，但是老師告訴我，我說的是日語，我有很多講法語的練習。
我被告知不要在課堂上使用字典，不顧一切地跟著上課，
每天做完作業並複習後逐漸習慣了法語並很好地理解了這一課。
雖然我在國外學習之前就讀法語，但實際上我覺得在外地學習時它完全不同。
我相信我能夠通過生活在只說法語的環境中來引領我的成長。
