Hello, my name is Yuna Cho. On my first day at WTC Toronto, because of the English Only Policy at the school, I was shy and just smiling back when people were asking questions.
But my shyness disappeared soon when I became close friends with them. Everyone from different countries was passionate about improving their English. I hung out together a lot with students from Brazil, Japan, and Saudi Arabia and had a lot of chances to use my English outside of the classroom. I participated in many activities after class, and partied with classmates.
Even though I was making grammatical mistakes time to time, my fear and shyness toward speaking English disappeared. Personally, I loved Sparta class where I was trained to correct my common mistakes. Also Alex, the teacher, was very handsome,
too! After five months of training, my speaking skills have improved a lot and I gained confidence.
Thanks to an internship program at WTC Toronto, I prepared to get a job before the graduation. My goal was to improve my English by working with Canadians and to own a restaurant in the future, so I wanted to get a job at a hotel restaurant. Getting a help from WTC¡¯s employment assistance program, I improved my resume and cover letters.
I practiced for job interviews a lot, too. As a result, I was very fortunate to find a job as an assistant chef at Best Western Hotel.
Most clients are Canadians and the head chef and other coworkers are Canadians. At first, it was difficult to understand what others were saying because they were speaking very fast. But working everyday with them really helped me improve my listening skills, and I can see the improvement every day.
My internship will be finished on next April, but the company will provide me with a LMO visa; I am thinking of immigrating to Canada.
Of course, I am very stressed out because of my English skills. But, I always remind myself: ¡°no pain, no gain!¡± I try my best everyday and someday I will get work experience, fluent English skills, savings, and a permanent resident card.
Without WTC¡¯s co-op program, I wouldn¡¯t be able to have this opportunity. (there was an age limitation for getting an working holiday visa..) WTC provided me with the best opportunity of my life. I want to thank staffs at WTC for this. I hope that new students in the school won¡¯t forget why they came to Canada, and really pursue what
they came for.
