Stipendieansøgning til Colford Boarding School

For; Colford Boarding School, Nottingham, United Kingdom

I would love to come to your school to try out a year of another lifestyle. I have always thought that England was the middle of the world where everything could happen. I think it is a very important thing to try out something new, like going to a boarding school or travel to various countries. A scholarship in England would mean a lot to me because; English is a language I love to speak. When I am online, I am always speaking or writing in English to improve my English. Though I have always had a though start when I was either moving, changing school or something like that. I am now an eighth grader and I am speaking fluent English. However, it is not perfect and I really want to improve it. Since I am only an eighth grader, I still have a lot to learn. I have always been in the higher-”ranked” English speaking students. Nevertheless, I am not satisfied with that small part of it I can perform and I want to see the big picture. When I was about six or seven years old, we had not yet started with English in our school, so I started by myself and sat at home sometimes and looked inn dictionaries. It sounds somewhat geeky, but it was what I wanted. To learn the English language. My teachers have always been complementing me, for my good pronunciation and smooth talking. I am not the most social person in the neighborhood, but I am working on it, because of the school I am on now. This school is like a school for eighth to tenth graders, where you are going to school until about six o’clock, but there is sometimes some free-time lessons, and/or elective lessons. This school is focusing on the physical sports like gymnastics, football, handball, and so on, but the academic lectures is also a big part of the 10 months here. A school like this is the perfect place for someone with a lot of love for sports. There is a lot of solidarity on such a place, and we have about three to three and a half hours of “playtime” or free time, where we can do whatever we want, as long it is legal and where other people can be around us without getting hurt or get annoyed. A thing that I would like to tribute to your school if you decide to take me in is to take a decision to do whatever I can, to get friends and have a great time. I will give a new breath of fresh air to the class that I am going to be with for that year. I have always been told that I give a “whiff” of energy to the class that I am going to.
