Duong:

I had a hard 10-day course in an army camp in Son Tay last summer. Everything was different from my life at home. We had to wake up at 5 a.m and attended classes which were like training courses for soldiers. In the evening, we read books or worked in teams. The team leaders walked us through many exciting activities. We also joined a performance that had the theme: environment protection. We could only call our parents once a day.

We also had touching moments when we received letters from our parents. I have never attended  such a strict but exciting course like this.

Akiko:

I have been on an unforgettable summer course in America. I stayed in Thornwood campus on the outskirts of New York City for three weeks. We had an enjoyable campus tour, attended English classes, and joined team activities. We all tried to communicate in English. In the evening, we played board games and billiards. The most special experience was my visit to the top of Rockefeller Centre. From there, I could view the whole city below.

That was the first time I travelled without my parents, so I felt like I grew up a lot after the trip.
