I come from York. I was accepted by TESOL in York, Durham and Edinburgh. Later, I went to York because I like this city. My friend chose Durham. Now we all teach in training institutions in Shanghai. It doesn't make any difference. What I have learned is very useful.

TESOL in York belongs to the College of Education, while TESOL in Durham belongs to the Language Center. It may sound formal in York, but it's not bad. But I heard that all the good teachers in Durham went to Newcastle a few years ago. I wonder if it's true.

Then the curriculum of the two schools is not the same. For York, 65,438+0 ~ 2 courses are compulsory, 65,438+0 ~ 2 courses are optional, and linguistics, teaching methods and research methods are compulsory. For Durham, I think my friend' s linguistics is compulsory anyway, but the textbooks used are all books written by their teachers, and sometimes the mid-term papers of $ TERM. If some elective courses in York are not available, you can hand in your final paper.

But when I graduated, Chinese enterprises went to the British campus to recruit, and the enterprises going to these two schools were not the same. For the Institute of Education, EF, for example, just came to our school and didn't go to Durham. Of course, some companies went to Durham instead of York.

Finally, these two places are the ancient town, the tourist city of York, the largest Gothic church in Europe, and the classic English afternoon tea. There are many unheard-of birds on campus, as well as the Queen's two swans. Durham is also super beautiful, because there are mountains and leaves are red in autumn. You can often see their school's rowing team on the river in the valley. They won the Olympic gold medal. Japanese fried rice noodles in the city center are super delicious haha.

Oh, by the way, Durham's dormitory is old, and the heating is always broken in winter. Although ours is relatively new, it is true. . Um ... Houses in Britain generally have poor sound insulation, you know ~
