The Diary of a Funny Italian at the Lewis School

When I entered the school, I think Suzie at the school gathering saw that I was somewhat odd for an Italian. It was about 9.00 toward the beginning of the day and she said to me, "Gracious! You're early – that is decent," and I answered, "Truly, I know. I'm strange for an Italian, since Italians normally show up later than expected."

Incidentally, there was a motivation behind why I was there previously: I recollected impeccably the way and the way through the recreation center to arrive at the school, as it was the second time I had gone to the school. My past experience goes back to 2011. I was only 18 years of age.

In the interceding years, I changed a ton. To outline this, it is sufficient to look at the reports I got in 2011 and in 2018. In the previous, Susie, a Polish, red-haired instructor, kept in touch with me, "Giovanni, each time you woke up in my exercise, you demonstrated that you are exceptionally gifted and shrewd… which doesn't change the way that you were in every case sleeping during the exercise." In the last mentioned, Stephen stated, "You had a ton of effect to the class because of your endeavors."

Some may state that I have become a man and I'm not a young person any more, yet I would go for another explanation (regardless I get exhausted and nod off in certain circumstances throughout everyday life). This time, I was there to improve my English however much as could be expected and to adapt to IELTS and GRE tests. I required them to apply for a PhD in the USA. In reality, I've just presented my application and despite the fact that I don't have the foggiest idea what the outcome is yet, I am now content with my endeavors. I figured out how to score 6.5 in the IELTS test: in a little more than seven weeks, I expanded my score a ton, on the grounds that the first occasion when I did a counterfeit test, I scored 4.5 or less.

Hence, I must be appreciative to the school, which pushed me toward the best demeanors to accomplish that outcome. Along these lines, in the event that I figured out how to go far, it would be a result of a closeness, that of every individual I met at the school. I need to discuss them now, not about the spots I visited or the offices or something to that effect: everybody can without much of a stretch discover them on the web or on certain postcards; yet no one can know what number of awesome individuals work and concentrate in that school, in the event that they have never gone to it.

Lewis School Staff


I'll begin with Helen. She is the Director of Studies. I had the delight of having her as an educator for some time. Despite the fact that she may appear to be severe when you see her in her office by the gathering confronting various types of responsibilities, she is a decent individual and in the study hall you can without much of a stretch burst out chuckling with her.

I'll proceed onward to another great individual: Andrew. He was my instructor on the IELTS course. His class was astonishing: he jokes a great deal and he figures out how to keep you alert for the entire exercise. You live it up and become familiar with a great deal simultaneously. Because of him, I accomplished a decent score at the test. Also, he composed a letter of suggestion for my application. He is accessible for everything and in the study hall you feel like you are comfortable: he now and then discussions about his own life, rendering the spot open and warm. "It's not possible for anyone to know what number of magnificent individuals work and concentrate in that school, in the event that they have never gone to it."

Another who I have to express profound gratitude to is Stephen. Stephen pushed me to obtain the right conduct for an IELTS understudy. "You have to utilize various types of highlighter when you're examining – it is anything but a joke," he stated, and he was totally right. I scored 7.0 in both tuning in and perusing on account of those clearly unusual methods. In addition, because of his impact, I got keen on buying exceptionally refined pens. He cherishes them and now I love them too. I've recently gotten one on the web.

Ryan utilizes various methods as well. I had him as my educator in my first week on the General English course. He is an inviting individual and he has become a companion of mine. I have his WhatsApp and here and there we keep in touch with one another. I'm sitting tight for him in Italy since I am quick to stay in contact with him. We shared a ton of excellent and engaging minutes together.

I can say the equivalent regarding Lilli. Despite the fact that I just found a workable pace toward the finish of my remain, I could unmistakably perceive how great she is. Tragically, I've never had her as an educator, however she was my guide for my London trip. The clever thing about this outing is that we needed to be voyagers, yet we wound up challenging Brexit. Lilli is cordial and dependable and she helped me with my mission statement for my PhD application. Like me, she adores trekking and, at some point, I might want to meet her again and stroll with her along delightful mountain or valley ways.

Charlotte and Alison are exceptionally kind instructors. I had them as instructors in IELTS and General English separately. They are constantly accessible to examine any trouble and to explain any point you don't comprehend. Charlotte helped me with my Writing Sample and I truly valued it. Alison astounded me when she said to me that she lives on a pontoon: this affirmed my early introduction of her, an exceptionally receptive individual who adores opportunity.

The last individual I need to discuss is Tom: he is the most delightful individual in the school. He is continually ready to joke and to grin and, gratitude to him, I got popular. Truth be told, I wound up on the front of the school leaflet with my preferred shirt, "Break new ground." He caught a delightful minute despite everything we stay in contact with one another.

Sharing Chocolate


I could express an ever increasing number of things in the event that I needed to discuss my mates: Neelam, Raiane, Valery, Iman, Mustafa, Honorata, Henney, Olivia, Aki or about my receiving family, which, for me, is something like a subsequent family, however I concluded just to keep them in my heart, similar to a mystery.

At long last, by method for end, I might want to respond to an inquiry that Andrew or Stephen posed to me one day. One of them asked, "For what reason do you purchase chocolate and offer it consistently? Is it your birthday consistently?". Clearly, the first and most effortless answer is that I love chocolate, however the second and the most genuine one is something connected with an Emily Dickinson ballad.

I truly want to have left in every individual I knew something of excellence, so as to leave the cargo alone proportioned to the depression. This is the main truth I know, and, by sharing chocolate consistently, I need to impart this reality to everybody. Because of everybody. I truly miss everything about Lewis School.
