What will I remember in this class ? There are too many impression to share here, yet I will choose the most two impressive things to say. That is we have two instructors in this class which is beneficial to me for several reasons. Another is that I have very brave classmates who can inspire and encourage me.
One of the reason why I will remember my class is that we are the only class which has two instructors. Although in the beginning of the class, I was worried about that we may have double assignments, and it may be difficult to satisfy two instructors. Yet afterward, I found that was just my imagination, and it scared myself. Instead, I had double assists from both instructors, and I can get double suggestions and ideas from them. In addition, it may has more objective final evaluation which is better than the result that is judged by one person. Most importantly, they are all very approachable teachers who allow us to make appointment with them to ask whatever questions. For an international student such as me, who studies abroad alone, having an approachable instructor is very helpful and essential. Therefore, for the reasons of having two approachable instructors and being able to get double assists or suggestions from them, I will definitely remember this class.
Having many brave and friendly classmates is the other reason why I will remember from the class. For example, Du, from Vietnam, gave me very honest comments for my final presentation. I was appreciate with his comments toward to me because the gentle but honest suggestion was very useful to me. The other instance, Beomjim, from Korea, had penetrating opinions and questions for every presenters which really shocked me. I thought, it may is due to his enriched life experience because his age is older than all of us. Miso, Korean girl, was very quiet in class, but she is claver. I had private talk with her, she has modern thoughts toward to things such as love perspective. From these three of examples , hopefully, it helps you to understand that how much I am appreciate to be with my classmates.
Despite of the fact that I am extreme worried about whether I will pass this level or not, I realize that I learned a lot from my classmates and instructors. I am sure that I will remember this level by the reasons of having two instructors and excellent classmates.

First impression of YUELI

It is complicated to illustrate the first impression of YUELI. Generally speaking, I had mixed feeling at that time when arriving YUELI. There were a lot of Asian students here that drove me to think whether it was right choice to come here learning English or not. However, the YUELI's staff and teachers are so friendly, whenever you have questions, go up to ask then they pay attention and make effort to help you dealing with your problems.
In addition, the YUELI's location seems to be hidden under a secret place where general York students would not know it. It looked like a maze which made me getting lost when I just got here. Therefore, I always keep my compass in my backpack.
Once upon a time, I got lost again in campus because I could not find the Room021 in Winter college. I scooped out my super compass , had ever save my life when I went mountain hiking, from the deepest place in my backpack. Meanwhile, I took the campus map and put under my compass. As I took out the compass and map, there was a series of laughs comes toward to me. That was my friend. She could not believe what she had seen. That was the other impression of YUELI.
To sum up, although the first impression of YUELI for me is a matter of long time ago and is difficult to shape the feeling, I still remember the teachers and staff are so friendly, and many students are from Asia that confused my purpose of learning English. Otherwise, the locasion of YUELI looked like a maze which always confused me. Eventhough that so, I like to study in YUELI.
