As a new member of SHBS, my initial impressions about English lessons were challenged after a week of orientation in 2023. I had expected them to be boring and old-fashioned due to stereotypes from my previous school. However, I quickly realized that the English lessons at SHBS were interactive, lively, and engaging. The teachers fostered a more interactive environment, making the lessons much more enjoyable. Unlike my previous English lessons, where the class atmosphere was tense and divided, SHBS students worked together harmoniously, breaking down gender barriers and promoting open communication. This positive change in atmosphere and teaching approach has given me confidence and enthusiasm for my future studies at SHBS.
