About Gyeonggi English Village-Paju Camp
|
| |
The Gyeonggi English Villages are places for Students to have an opportunity to experience English and foreign culture with native speakers. Gyeonggi Provincial Government initiated and established the Gyeonggi English Village as a new model for future public education in South Korea . Upon entering the Village, Students experience a living English Community similar to that of overseas, from an international immigration airport counter to a city hall, a library, a bank, a post office, restaurants, an exhibition hall, a theater and a fitness center and so on. Through an interesting experimental progress with native speakers, students can gain confidence and become less afraid. In addition, Students can raise not only English skills but also their potential creativity through classes such as drama, art, music and science in various experimental facilities.
