English is the instruction language and is also the official language for the communication in the school. Although it is not a perfect English environment, I still learned a lot.

At first, it is so difficult for me to go out of the campus where there is not many people speak good English. Besides my French is so bad. But, as time passed by, both my oral French and listening French were improved. That's because I am not afraid of making mistakes and being laughed by others when I am speaking another language.

Sometimes it is difficult for to use the local language in my social life. But in the school, we just use english, so it is no problem for me to finish my study.

- everyday life requires French - in school English is spoken by most people - do not expect French people to speak English or any other foreign language
