Enjoying the all new GEO 15 Clubs

This GEO 15 we have a lot of new clubs. Aside from the Coffee Club, Sitcom Club, Game show Club, Movie Club, Photography Club which we had in the previous camps. This time around, we have Global Issues Club, Survivor Club, Badminton Club and Fitness Pal Club. Since there are new clubs this time, we deemed it necessary to ask students about their feedbacks about the clubs they are involved in.

A number of Class 1-2 students shared their sentiments regarding the clubs.

In Seop shares “I think that the GEO fitness club is interesting and funny, because the club has a variety. The Fitness club helps us make new friends. And the exercise plan keeps me healthy. Prof. David and TA Peter work hard for us. I am satisfied with the Fitness Club. Thanks for everything!”

Young Jin imparts “My Club is the Global issues club. At first time when I attended the club meeting, I felt that things were a bit hard to understand. Thanks to professor’s efforts, I could understand now.”

It seems that students are enjoying their time in GEO clubs. Not only that, it is evident that they are motivated and inspired to speak up. With all the activities in line for the students (the classroom activities, team competitions, club and team meetings, presentation contests, team performances, et. al), students have a lot of venues to use the English language. This camp, GEO management is aggressive in encouraging students to use the English language so that students can make the most out of their time. GEO management, professors and staff work hand in hand to make this camp a remarkable one. And yes, GEO 15 organizers and staff are doing a great job. Students too are cooperative in this effort. Surely, GEO 15′s success is unstoppable.
