British Hills

  
  Hello everyone, Have you ever heard " British Hills"? But it's not in U.K. Here in Japan. British Hills is located in a forest in Hatori natural park in Fukushima prefecture. It was originally established to provide students the opportunity and space for international training by Kanda Institute of Foreign Languages and Kanda University of International Studies. Today the institute has opened it's doors to everyone who would like to visit or study English at British Hills.

  It has the atmosphere " Britain in the Middle Ages". It's just like Harry Potter's magic school. English is the official language and also you can use British Hill's own currency called "pound". 1 British Hills pound = 100yen. Sounds interesting ,isn't it?

  As you know, Japan is surrounded by the sea, it's not easy to study English abroad. I think it would be great if we could have such a "English World" everywhere in Japan. Hopefully public ones are preferable.

  The cheaper ,the better!!

  Thank you so much for reading my article.

Hello miki san, Welcome to my blog .
Thank you so much for your kind information.
To tell honestly I've been thinking of going to British
Hills with my students for several years.
They can enjoy real British atmosphere and talking with
foreigners there.
Reading your blog, I really would like to go there!
See you.
P.S I also enjoy TV program "Hannah Montana" with my
daughter. I can't stop laughing to watch it!

♪Let it be♪ Nostalgic. I bought the record during Junior High School. Do you know The Beatles named their goup from Volkswagen Beetle. Because they went from Liverpool to Hamburg to work. They sang ♪She love you♪ in German. I wanna work at British Hills. Bye..

Hello アメリカ留学さん。 ご訪問ありがとうございます。
私も若いころはアメリカに留学したいと思ったことがありました。
今でもその夢は心の片隅に残っています。一番興味あるのは、
アメリカでの移民や留学生に対するESLの授業が、地域や学校で
どんな風にして行われているかということです。あとでそちらの
ブログにもおじゃまさせていただきますね。応援のぽちっ☆
ありがとうございました。 Thanks for your comment.See you.

Hi Harry, Yes, I know the name of beatles comes from
Volkswagen Beetle and also liked that car but I didn't
know they worked in Humburg.
Well, Do you want to work at British Hills as a.. manager
wearing dark suit and a tie or a waiter or a bell boy (?)
Thanks for coming and your nice comment. Bye..

Hi MOKO
Your experience is interesting!
I and my friends have been interested in British Hills.
I’d like to take culture courses in English.
Which class did you take? All? Several?
But the cost is a little bit expensive, you are right.
I’ll think of going there!
2008年05月03日 11:58
Hi,Moko! Oh,I have never been there nor heard about it before. I always lag behind in current information. So by reading your entry this time, I can update my old pieces, especially about Fukushima Prefecture to the latest version. I'm now updated! WOW! I'd like my daughter to take part in the educational programs at British Hills someday. Thank you!!

like to go there. I'd like to take all courses but

Good morning, MOKO-san! I am trying to write my message in English today, please excuse my mistakes! British Hills. Though I have never stayed over there yet, my husband has taken me there by car, twice. When I first saw the incredible scenery I thought “Oh, Boy! I just can’t believe this is in FUKUSHIMA!”

We just walked around the site and had a cup of British tea and scones, fish-and-chips, or something. I do agree it would be great if we could have such a "English World" in Japan. And, actually I would love to go real England one day because I have never been there! Have a nice day! cheese
2008年09月02日 09:29
Good morning cheese, ( I ate cream cheese and bread
this morning I like cheese! )
Well, Thank you so much for visiting my site.
As I read your message last week, I thought you might have
been to " British Hills" before because you live in
Fukushima now. You're so lucky to live in such a city
near to "British Hills". I envy you!
Oh, did you try to have some scones and fish-and-chips
there? Sounds delicious! I love both of them!
2008年09月02日 09:30
You know I live in Tochigi being next to Fukushima,
I'd like to visit "British Hills"someday in the very
near future. Thanks again for your comments.
See you around!

Thank you for your quick reply, MOKO-san. Oh, you envy me, as I live in Fukushima which includes British Hills? I imagine Tochigi also has lots of nice spots to visit. Seeing your blog, I realized that I love English World, and I would like to look for English World in my daily life, too. However, this is the only chance to communicate in English at a moment, so may I often visit your blog, please?
cheese (again!)

Knowing you made rice steamed with red beans on the other day, yesterday I cooked rice seasoned with soy sauce and Tofu, tuna, ginger, and sesame. See ya soon around then!
2008年09月03日 15:10
How are you doing,cheese?
You're really an early bird, aren't you?
Well, I'm glad to recieve your message again this
morning. Thank you! You seem to love English world as much
as me.
Hope you could expand your own English World in your
life and enjoy English and meeting various people.
2008年09月03日 15:11
Of course, Please come over my site whenever you feel
like to visit. You're always welcome!
By the way, You made "Takikomigohan "? "Tofu"means
real tofu or a deep fried bean curd called "aburaage"?
If so, I often make it added mushrooms and carrots,
I love it!!
See you !
