Accommodation

  • Homestay
    Students will have people to take care of them from the day they arrive and learn quickly about New Zealand culture. They will also practice their English with the homestay family. Students can enjoy "home comforts" which will reduce feelings of homesickness and develop a "network" of New Zealand friends and acquaintances. Some students enjoy homestay so much they stay there for up to several years and the homestay family becomes their New Zealand home! All Campbell Institute Homestay Families have been assessed by The Campbell Institute for suitability, and each family has a contractual obligation to The Campbell Institute to meet minimum standards, for example a warm and comfortable bedroom, and a friendly and comfortable environment. According to the New Zealand Ministry of Education Code of Practice homestay families for students who are aged under 18 years old must be vetted by the New Zealand Police as being suitable homestay providers.

跟大家分享一下我在紐西蘭的生活^^
在學校上課的時候，有點像是在台灣上課的感覺，差別只是台灣的老師大多都是用中文教學，而這邊當然就是都是英文了。而你在選學校的時候也要選華人少的學校，可以讓你在課間時避免說太多的中文，但是像我選的學校主要是日本人和韓國人，所以上課時很少有機會和中國人說中文，只能用英文和大家交談這絕對是好事。
出國回來後，我自己覺得最有成長的就是我們一般人最弱的聽跟說了，聽力在天天的轟炸之下，一定會漸入佳境，加上你如果有心的話，多看看電視的影集或是新聞，因為國外的電視都沒有字幕的，你就只能咬著牙努力聽，聽多了適應了那速度就會有所長進的。加上每天在學校老師會教新的東西，尤其式些生活上的用法，你有時候會發現在電視中就出現了，那你以前不懂的東西就變成懂了。
最重要的當然還是自己要出去去體驗看看，才能知道其中的感受了。只要你不要怕，勇敢的說，就算你的文法、發音再差，他們其實都會了解你想表達的意思，也會很樂意的跟你說話的～像一般語言學校第一天會有測驗分班，筆試的部分並不難，口試的話，只要你敢說不要有很離譜的差錯的話，通常分班時就可以分到滿高等級的班級了唷～不過其實我剛到的時候，什麼都不怕的亂說，一直都可以說的很順，但是當我學越多，知道越多常見的錯誤或是正確的文法時，我有時候反而會慢下來的想怎麼樣才是正確的說法，經過這樣的練習之後就越來越進步了!!

Si Eun Kim

간단한 자기소개를 해주시겠어요?
필리핀의 국제학교에서 1년, 한국의 고등학교를 1년 다녔습니다. 뉴질랜드에 오기 전에는 영어 실력이 부족하다고 느꼈기 때문에, 어학공부를 해서 영어에 대한 자신감을 먼저 얻고자 했습니다. 캠벨 어학원에서 3개월간 공부하며 어학공부에 집중할 수 있었고, 영어 실력도 키웠습니다. 뿐만 아니라, 새로운 친구를 사귀게 되었고, 뉴질랜드 문화에
대해서도 배울 수 있었습니다.

The Campbell Institute 어학원을 선택하게 된 이유는?
캠벨 어학원이 뉴질랜드에서 가장 유명한 어학원이기 때문에 선택하게 되었습니다. 또한 캠벨은 선생님들과 학교 직원 분들 모두, 학생들이 편안한 분위기에서 학업할 수 있도록 도와주시는 부분이 가장 마음에 들었습니다. 저처럼 뉴질랜드에서의 유학경험이 없는 국제학생들에게는 이러한 중요한 부분이라고 생각합니다.

어떤 레벨에서 수업을 들었나요?
등교 첫날 오리엔테이션과 반배정 레벨테스트를 진행했습니다. 레벨테스트는 말하기, 듣기, 읽기, 쓰기 총 네 파트가 있었고, 저는 상위 레벨인 Advance 반에 배정되어 다음 날부터 Advance 반 수업을 들었습니다

한 반에 몇 명이 함께 수업을 들었고 같은 반 친구들의 국적은 어땠나요?
레벨에 따라 반이 달라지고, 한 반 학생 수도 차이가 있는데 보통 10명에서 18명의 학생이 한 반에서 수업합니다. 저희 반은 6명이었는데, 국적이 일본, 프랑스, 태국, 독일, 스위스로 다양했습니다. 스위스 친구를 사귈거라고 생각해 본 적이 없었는데 지금 가장 친한 친구가 스위스에서 온 친구입니다.

교실 수업 분위기는 어땠나요?
저희 반 분위기는 너무 좋았습니다. 가족같은 분위기로 선생님들도 모두 친절하셨습니다. 반 친구들이 모두 다른 국적이라 다양한 문화에 대해서도 배우고 영어 실력을 향상하는데도 도움이 되었습니다. 선생님들이 편안하게 대해주셔서 질문도 어렵지 않게 하며 수업에 참여할 수 있었습니다.

수업 시간은 어떻게 구성되었나요?
월요일부터 목요일은 오전 9시 30분에 시작해서 3시 30분까지 6시간을 학교에서 보냅니다. 금요일에는 오전 수업만 있어 오후 12시 30분에 마칩니다.

학교 위치와 시설은 어떤가요?
학교는 뉴마켓 지역에 있어서 쉽게 찾을 수 있습니다. 저는 앨리스리스에 위치한 홈스테이에서 지냈기 때문에 뉴마켓에 있는 학교까지 20분 정도가 걸려, 등교도 편리했습니다. 학생 라운지에는 전자레인지와 간단한 식기, 식기 세척기, 정수기가 있어서 주로 이 곳에서 점심 식사를 하고 친구들과 시간을 보냈습니다.

캠벨의 액티비티 프로그램은 어땠나요?
주중에는 다양한 방과 후 액티비티 프로그램을 진행합니다. 제가 참여한 방과 후 활동으로는 음악클럽, 미션 베이 여행, 배드민턴, 축구, 요리 등으로 다양합니다. 음악 클럽에서는 선생님들과 학생들이 어떤 팝송을 배워볼지 함께 정하고 다같이 노래를 부르며 영어 공부를 합니다. 미션 베이는 오클랜드에서 유명한 해변으로 친구들과 함께 소풍가는 느낌으로 다같이 다녀왔습니다. 배드민턴과 축구 활동은 캠벨에서 가장 인기 많은 방과 후 프로그램인데, 남학생과 여학생으로 팀을 나눠 경기를 합니다. 제 친구들과 저는 이 스포츠 활동을 제일 좋아했습니다. 방과 후 액티비티 프로그램의 가장 큰 장점은 선생님들과 학생들이 다같이 함께 즐기는 것 입니다. 오클랜드 여행 가이드 분이 매주 수요일에 학교를 방문해 오전 쉬는 시간마다 주말에 참여할 수 있는 여행에 대해 설명해주셔서 여행 계획을 세우는 것도 좋았습니다.

캠벨의 어떤 점이 좋았나요?
저는 캠벨에서 만난 사람들과 분위기가 너무 좋았습니다. 새로운 사람을 만나고 소통하며 친구를 사귀는 것이 어렵지 않았습니다. 국제학생들이 뉴질랜드에 잘 적응하는데 다양한 도움을 받을 수 있는 곳이 바로 캠벨입니다. 뉴질랜드가 처음인 학생들에게 적극 추천하고 싶은 학교입니다.

홈스테이 가족은 어땠나요? 통학은 어떻게 했나요?
홈스테이 가족들은 필리핀에서 오신 분들로 저를 가족처럼 대해주셔서 너무 좋았습니다. 다른 학교를 다니고 있는 중국인 친구가 같은 집에서 지냈습니다. 학교까지는 버스나 기차를 타고 갔는데 20분 정도 걸려서 편리했습니다. 이제는 통학시간이 더 길어졌지만 숙소를 옮길 계획은 하지 않고 있습니다.

학교에서 시내는 어떻게 이동하나요?
뉴마켓에서 시내 중심은 버스나 기차로 10분, 도보로 40분 거리에 있어 이동이 편리합니다.

뉴마켓 지역은 어떤 곳인가요?
뉴마켓 지역은 깨끗하고, 다양한 인종의 사람들이 살고 있어 국제 학생들이 인종차별에 대한 걱정을 하지 않아도 되는 곳입니다. 한국, 일본, 중국, 인도 음식점 등 다양한 식당과 카페가 있어 저는 주로 한국식당에 갔습니다. 뉴마켓은 오클랜드에서도 패션, 쇼핑, 엔터테인먼트를 즐길 수 있는 곳 입니다.

한 주 생활비로 얼마나 지출했나요?
우선 홈스테이 비용은 미리 지불을 했는데, 주중의 아침식사와 저녁식사, 주말 하루 세끼 식사를 모두 포함하여 주당 $290 였습니다. 주중 점심식사와 교통비, 그외 지출을 포함하여 주당 $200 정도 지출했습니다.

캠벨 어학 과정 후 계획과 목표는?
저는 현재 UP International College에서 AUT 파운데이션 과정을 학업하고 있습니다. 올 2020년 7월에 AUT University 에 진학하는 것을 목표로 하고 있습니다. 캠벨은 저에게 단순한 어학원을 넘어 뉴질랜드에 순조롭게 적응할 수 있는 발판이 되어 주었고, 지금 하고 있는 공부에 정진하는데 든든한 밑바탕이 되어준 감사한 곳입니다.
