A Cool Place to Study English

There are many reasons to study in Carbonale. First, there are a lot of American students in Carbondale. For example, they help us to practice English and we have met many friends. Second, Carbondale is a quiet place for studying English. There are only a few bars because this is a small city. Third, CESL is a very good, special program to study English. For example, there are good teachers in CESL like Jessica. And we can practice a lot. In conclusion, Carbondale is a very cool place to study English. We're going to study here for a long time.

Learning English in Carbondale

Carbondale is a good place for learning English. First, Carbondale is not a big city, so people who live in Carbondale are kind and polite. Therefore, it is easy to talk to them. For example, when I was walking down the street, many people said "hi,"so if I want to talk to them, I'd be able to do it. Second, there is little entertainment here, so students have nothing to do except for studying. The third reason Carbondale is a good place is because it has CESL. CESL is good for learning English because it has good teachers and a good environment. In conclusion, Carbondale is a good place to learn English.

Study English in Carbondale

We think Carbondale is a good place to study English. The first reason is it is quiet here. For example, there are not a lot of people in Carbondale. The second reason is there are not many places to play. For example, we don't have many bars or casinos. Also, there are a lot of opportunities for international students. For example, we have a conversation table. In conclusion, Carbondale is a nice place to improve our English.

Our Opinion about Carbondale

Carbondale is not a good place to study English. The first reason is it is boring and we can't get a lot of practice speaking English here. For example, there are no funny places to go and we can't improve our English. The second reason is it is quiet and small. For example, there are no night clubs and only a few shops. In conclusion, we would rather not study English in Carbondale.
