Incredible GEO 9 Winter Camp

It's the final week of GEO 9. In retrospect, GEO had loads of activities during the past few weeks. Team competitions, individual and group presentations, club activities to name a few. These activities aim to give students fun but educational experience in GEO. There's class, team and club activities that focuses on conversation, confidence building and vocabulary expansion.

Before GEO 9 camp culminates, we asked students on their impressions and sentiments about GEO's vacation program.

Here's what students say about the program:

On the first day we were shy and tense because we must use English only. And we were stressed and felt strange about the warning card and meeting foreigners. But, now our thinking has changed. We got confidence and we met many friends. Thanks to our professors, T.A. We GOT THE POWER!!!

Once afraid and shy of speaking in English, but during the contest they were full of confidence.

And even enjoyed their time presenting their topics in English. Students even bagged major awards ^_^

The GEO program has many things to do, such as our presentations. We must make at least two presentations. It’s very hard to us because we have to make an individual and a group presentation. They need some extra time.

And GEO has many missions. For example, we must make 4 foreigner friends and we must talk with the OBF master for 30 minutes!!! So we have less free time.

Maybe, if we have a chance to come back to GEO, we hope the GEO schedule is a little less busy.

As one student from Class 1-2 shares, GEO is tiring but challenging...

The Team Competitions, ‘Catch the tail’ was a very exciting game. It was full of action and everyone in the team participated and cooperated during the game. Also, the Speed Quiz game had a lot of funny hints and gestures. So we had a lot of good laughs.

Lets get it on...

At the Wine and Cheese Party there was a lot of food and wine that made our stomachs full. During that time, we also made a lot of new friends.
