IES program*

Hello, everyone.
Today's topic of blog is "Why I am in IES".

Because before I entered this university, I knew that there is an IES program - which is like we can take English classes by foreign teachers, and I thought I wanted to get into this program because I really wanted to study English. However, to get into this program, I had to get a high score on TOEFL - which every freshman have to take for deciding which class they will be in. I didn't have any confidence that I could get into any classes of IES, so I thought IF I could get into it, that would be lucky. So I had a desire that since I go to Kansai Gaidai University, I wanted to be in the IES program. Then I took the TOEFL before actually entering this university, as I said above, and for some reasons, I could get into this class. I am really glad to be in this class actually. Before I got into this program, I was thinking like the class would be really good and fun for me because.. maybe students do study English intensively and teachers who teach them are native speakers. So I decided to choose IES program to take, IF I could. Studying English intensively is what I really wanted to do at the university because I really like English, this reason would be come first, and maybe it will good for me or help me in the future since I want to get a job which I can use English somehow. For those reasons, I decided to take the IES program and Fortunately I got a good score on TOEFL, so I am here.
