I am studying English to enter graduate school in the
United States. I learned Chemistry in my university and want to study it more. First, I must
prepare TOEFL to
apply to a school because I'm Asian. At the same time, conversations in English are also important for
me to live in the U.S. for a long time.

I am interested in chemistry. I want to become a
researcher in a research institute and my final goal is to become a professor, researching and
teaching students in a university. So, I need TOEFL score, which is a
prerequisite for foreigners,
in order to continue my major. In Korea, there are many TOEFL academies which
may he more efficient than FLS, because, the academy in Korea makes students improve
their score in a short time. They cram students for an exam. It is not beneficial in the true sense
of studying English. But FLS is based on fundamental English education and teaches
students how to apply to a school in intensive programs. There are TOEFL and
writing elective class. They help me to prepare myself for an examination. Not only getting score
of test, but also
learning practical English are reasons that I selected FLS.
The most important reason to learn English in FLS is
conversation with native speakers. A small class number is useful to relate between teachers and students. I can positively
participate in a class because I frequently have a oneto-one conversation with a teacher or
another student. I became cognizant that I have increased general English ability like vocabulary
and grammar through oral
English. In addition, group discussion, presentation, and role-playing give a self-confidence about English to
me. Also, various activities help me experience American culture and practice English from
real life.
In order to achieve my aim, I am
studying at FLS. There is a proverb which says "TO KILL TWO BIRDS WITH ONE STONE.". As
the proverb says, I'm trying
my best to pass an exam and converse in English at FLS.
