VEC Online Guest Book for Thai Students

Welcome to Vancouver English Centre!!

In the past decades, it has always been our great pleasure to welcome over 40,000 international students from around the world at our school. This includes Thai students who have brought a diverse set of skills with them e.g. Graphic design, Accounting, Programming, Aerospace, Pharmaceutical, Law, Engineering, Gemology, and more. Many of our students have successfully completed internship at companies in Vancouver or Banff. We are happy to be part of their success. Thus, we prepare this Online Guest book for our students to share their experience at VEC and in Vancouver, and truly hope that it will be worthwhile for incoming students to Vancouver English Centre.

Please find some feedbacks from our students as follow:

“ชอบ Pronunciation Class อึ้งมากๆ ตอนที่เข้าเรียนครั้งแรก ไม่เคยเรียนอะไรแบบนี้จริงจังที่เมืองไทย มีการสอนออกเสียง สอนการพูดประโยคบอกเล่า ประโยคคำถาม เป็น class ที่ควรเรียนมากๆ
ตอนนี้เรียนจบ course แล้ว กำลังจะไป Banff ตื่นเต้นมาก แล้วก็แอบคิดถึงเพืิอนที่นี่ อยู่ที่ Vancouver แล้วมีึความสุข ไป Banff ก็น่าจะมึความสุขเหมือนกัน (เมืองเล็กๆ น่ารัก)
Hopefully, I will enjoy working and living in Banff.”

“My favorite class is Reading and Vocabulary. Dave is an awesome teacher! Lisa’s communication class is fantastic too. She explains how
to pronounce correctly every time I make mistake. Vancouver is safe and peaceful. There are many interesting places to go. I enjoy living here so much.”

Ms. Piyapat Pitaksawadkan

“I like Pronunciation and also Business and Grammar Writing. The classes are useful, and teachers are funny. The teacher here teaches
pronunciation in depth. I’ve taken phonetic course at Faculty of Arts, Chulalongkorn University. However, we did not get to practice pronunciation one by one like we do at VEC. It is so practical! I’ve had such a good time and also met polite people here. I enjoy
every minute at VEC and Vancouver.”

Mr. Thanapon Juicharoen

I thought the city is too big and it could be difficult to make new friends. Now, I really love this city! I don’t want to leave Vancouver any more!! Thank you, Thai counselors for being very helpful. I hope to come back here again some days”.

Ms. Theeranuch Suwanna

“ชอบ Grammar Class เพราะที่ไทยส่วนใหญ่เป็นครูไทยที่สอน พอมาเรียนกับครูฝรั่ง รู้สึกว่ามันไม่ได้ยากอย่างที่เคยคิด เค้าอธิบายได้ดี เข้าใจ และเนื้อหาแน่นกว่า Pronunciation Class ก็ดีมาก
ที่เมืองไทยไม่มีสอนแบบนี้ ที่โรงเรียนมีกิจกรรมมากมายให้ร่วม ไม่ว่าจะเป็น tour ช่วง weekend หรือ after class ช่วง lunch time สนุกดี บางทีก็ไปทานข้าวกับเพื่อนๆ ไปเที่ยว hang out
เป็นกลุ่มๆ พยายามสนใจในสิ่งที่คนที่นี่เค้าชอบ เช่น hockey game”
