Hello, folks. So this morning, we've come along to a very good language school in London

to 不定詞

because we want to have a look at what it's like to be a student in one of these schools.

-- So our viewers are learning English on the Internet. What would be an advantage of

coming to a language school for a time to learn some English?

-- I think the key difference is that when you're at a language school, then you are

part of a whole experience. If you're learning online, it's great, but it's for an hour or

two, and that's it. Whereas if you come to the school, then you have complete immersion

in a whole day of English if you like. If you're staying with a host family, you have

English experience before you come to school. All day, you're speaking English, and if you

take part in our social activities in the evening, then you're carrying on. So it's

constantly learning and taking in and processing of new information.

-- Sure. So if someone was studying here and staying with a host family, they might share

-- And I guess there are students coming from many different countries.

-- Exactly. And of course, then you get this interaction with loads and loads of different

students from all over the world, which, again, really challenges you in different ways when

-- And do students come here for a couple of weeks?

-- Some do. Some students come for a couple of weeks. Some students come for a year. It

depends on what that student is looking for, what they need, what their plans are. So it

-- And I guess it's very exciting being here in London. You know, we've got a lot of English

-- Of course. I mean, the history, the art, the literature, the theatre scene is just

really advantageous to learning English. It's just an amazing city. So to come and study

-- Yeah. I mean, I guess the student can learn more the more they put themselves in an English

-- Exactly. If you immerse yourself in something completely, then you're going to get more

-- Cool. Well, is it possible to go and have a look at a class this morning?

-- Yeah. Absolutely. I think Dan is waiting for you upstairs.

-- Great. Thank you very much. --You're welcome. --Let's go upstairs.

So let's go and have a quick look now at a general English class and what that looks

like in a language school. Okay. Come have a look.

-- Hi. We've just come to have a look at your general English class today.

-- What exactly are you going to be doing in class today?

-- Today, we're looking at the difference between literal and non-literal meanings of

nine elements of vocabulary. I was just asking Nir what he thought about the difference between

"enough food" and "too much food". So, sorry.

-- Okay. In this meaning, do you think that it's -- if there is "lots of", is it good

-- Good? Would you agree, guys? It's good?

-- Okay. Hands up if you think it's good. Nir, you stand alone, my friend. I'm sorry.

-- In fact, that's what I looked like last night at about 10:30. But what other words?

Fly. That's what I'm looking for, "fly". Read the sentences with your partner. I want you

to decide two things. No. 1, which sentence is the literal meaning? Which sentence is

the non-literal meaning. No. 2, what do you think the non-literal meaning means in other

languages? Okay. Good. So it's a word. You can use it, but it doesn't mean what you think

it means here. In this case, you mean "hard", not "hardly".

-- "To question." "Question" can be a verb?

-- Yes. Of course. "I question." Yeah. Good guess. Well done.

So that was a great lesson from Dan. They're really engaging in the teaching, and the students

were obviously enjoying it. We're going to go down to the lunch hall now and grab a bit

of lunch. And then, we've got a couple of students who we'll be talking to. They're

from different parts of the world. So I'm hungry. Let's go and eat.

Well, that was a delicious lunch. And we enjoyed having a look at Dan's class. Now, we've got

three students at the London School of English here. And firstly, folks, could you tell me

what course you're doing and how long you have learned English for? So starting with

-- I'm taking a Cambridge English examination preparation course. It's called FCE. So just

this course I have studied three weeks. Yeah. I have another five weeks.

-- Okay. And before, when you were in Japan, how long did you learn? Like, one year, two

-- Nothing at all? Okay. Wow. Very interesting. Okay. Thanks. And Veronica?

-- I've done the general course for one month, and then I've started three weeks ago the

CAE course, which is the Cambridge Advanced Exam. And that last --

-- Because I needed to get into university, and I've also heard that this academy prepares

very well students to pass the exams. And I've been --

-- So you're hoping to study in a university in England?

-- And they are asking for a B in CAE. And yeah. They've told me that this academy really

will help you to pass the exam successfully.

-- And Francis, tell me, how long have you been learning English, and why did you decide

-- I started English in secondary school and some more in university. And I decided to

come here because I want to improve my English a lot. But only for pleasure. And for me,

the best place to learn English is in London.

-- So I come here, and I'm learning here in this school.

-- Cool. Veronica, had you been studying in Spain how to speak English?
