My Story in Kampung
Inggris
Although i do
not understand about grammar and i still learn about grammar, but i want to try to write
about my story in Kampung Inggris, because i have gotten best moment there with
my new friends. I have ambitions that is i would like to speak English fluently
and understand about English language. Finally, i went to Kampung Inggris in
Pare, because Kampung Inggris is center of place to study about English fastly.
I went to there with my friend, we went to from Jakarta at 15.00 pm. We need 15
hours to arrive in Kediri station, finally we arrived at 07.00 am in station.
When we have arrived in Kediri station, we should to pare by becak and Puspa
Indah Bus.
When we have
arrived there, we were upset should register course place and dormitory, because
we do not know the best course place. Finally we got mistake when we selected
dormitory and course place. Actually many course place and dormitory in Kampung
Inggris. Many good course place and dormitory, but there are some course place
and dormitory that is bad.
The first place
we visited is so bad and we are
bored in that place, cause
the place is so bad and curriculum of study is not good. After we looked at the
condition, we move place to others place. We should loitered to find the best
course place and dormitory. Finally we can found course place and dormitory, the
new our course place and our dormitory is Kresna Institute and Access-es. Both
Kresna and Access is best to study about English language. Not only my friend,
but also I am happy, I am happy because i have gotten the new course place. For
dormitory, I took dormitory in Access-es.
The first and
second day in Kampung Inggris, i have not adapted with friends and environment.
But after the first and second day there, I was comfortable with environment. The matter make me happy and comfortable that is I got
many new friends that is kind, I just said Alhamdulillah to my god that is
Allah SWT because Allah has given me a kind friends. Both men and women are kind and good. Not only
friends, my course place is so comfortable and the course place is supported by
teachers who are kind and smart becomes reason for me feel comfortable in
Kampung Inggris.
Every day I went
to course place from dormitory by bicycle. I rent bicycle Rp 50.000 for two
weeks in Kampung Inggris. Bicycle is so important for me to find food, tour,
play to friends’s dormitory, etc. Bicycle can be best vehicle for me there,
maybe my bicycle has becomes my best friend cause always accompany me
everytimes. In Kampung Inggris, we can take program of study English, such as
grammer, speaking, pronunciation, reading, writing, toefl, etc. The cost of
program is cheap, average for cost of study English in Kampung Inggris just Rp
35.000 for two weeks. But if average for cost of study English in Jakarta reach
Rp 200.00.
I found new
friends in Kampung Inggris, many friends come from some island and city. My new
friends is so good, and I have enjoyed this place. I honest that my friends
there is better than my friends in Jakarta. Then for food there, food of
Kampung Inggris is cheap. The price of average food there is Rp 7000, but price
of average food in Jakarta is Rp 12.000. Everyday I started study from 07.00 am
until 17.30 pm, because I took 4 program
that is grammar, pronund, speaking, and grammar HP 8. The teacher there is so
kind and they think that their student is their friends. While the student think
they are teacher and best friends.
After two weeks
I studied Kampung Inggris, I have to come back to Jakarta, cause I have to start
study in the campus. When I came back, I was sad cause my friends and me should
be separated by the time. Although we just meet two weeks, but I feel this meet
like two years. I was happy in Kampung Inggris, because I can study about life
simply. I hope Allah will give us free time to meet again anytime.
