The person in charge was in charge of planning and managing programs for international students at a university in the United Kingdom for a long time.
The greatest strength of First Try is that the staff in charge of the program was actually in charge of planning and managing the program for international students for 14 years at the University of Leicester . He is in charge of more than 1000 international students of various nationalities every year and has a wealth of experience. We are familiar with the internal circumstances of British universities and will utilize their experience and knowledge to provide detailed support to the needs of international students. In addition, since many of the questions from those who wish to participate can be answered from their own experience, we always try to answer promptly and politely because we do not need to contact the university.
In addition, taking advantage of our strengths because we are in the field, we will support you in making a study abroad plan by creating materials in Japanese that include as much detailed information as possible. In addition, studying abroad is not something that can be decided by the individual student alone, and understanding of the family is also very important. In order to meet the feelings of parents who send their children, we will provide materials in Japanese that will be useful for those who wish to participate when considering the program with their families, and also individually. We also accept consultations.

スプリングプログラムの最大の魅力は、レスター大学の学期中に参加できることです。キャンパスには現地学生が溢れており、またソサエティ活動も活発なため、授業だけでなく実際のイギリスの大学生活を身近に感じやすい時期です。
スプリングプログラム開催のこの時期は日本の春休みにあたる関係から、レスター大学の日本の提携大学からの参加者が多く集まりやすいのも特徴です。初めての海外研修でも、同じ目的意識を持つ学生同士で学びやすく、安心してスタートしやすい環境と言えます。…と言いますと「英語の勉強が出来ないのでは？」と思われることもありますが、実は生活や学習の場面では英語を使う機会が十分にあります。授業はもちろん、寮によってはレスター大学生とのフラットシェアになることもあります。さらに、寮で毎日開催される無料イベントや交流の場に参加することで、現地学生や他の留学生と英語で会話する機会も多く、授業外でも自然に英語に触れられる環境が整っています。
加えて、春は夏と比べて授業料や航空券が比較的リーズナブルな傾向があり、費用と内容のバランスを重視したい方にもおすすめしやすい時期です。肌寒さや日照時間の短さには少し注意が必要ですが、その分、観光客も夏に比べると落ち着いた環境の中で、学びに集中しながら英国らしい学生生活をしっかり体験していただけます。
夏プログラムの魅力は、何といっても滞在のしやすさと過ごしやすさです。日の出が5時、日没が21時半頃と、日照時間が長く、授業の前後にも時間を有効に使いやすいため、勉強だけでなく、散歩や買い物、友人との交流なども楽しみやすく、学びと生活体験の両方を充実させやすい時期です。
また、夏は現地学生の帰省時期にあたるため、学生寮は比較的静かで落ち着いており、図書館やカフェ、コインランドリーなどもとても空いています。比較的新しい寮や、キャンパス・市街地へのアクセスなどが良い「好条件」の寮がサマープログラム様に利用されることも多く、生活面の快適さを重視したい方には特に魅力を感じていただきやすい時期です。軽装で過ごしやすいため渡英用の荷物もまとめやすく、初めての留学でも生活リズムを整えやすいのも夏ならではの良さです。
さらに、夏はロンドン観光との相性も非常に良く、長い日照時間を活かして、平日の放課後や週末の時間をよりアクティブに使うことができます。サマーシーズンのみに解放されるバッキンガム宮殿や国会議事堂に代表される「夏限定観光スポット」、ショッピング、レイトナイト美術館などもお薦め！
学習だけでなく英国滞在を含め、ヨーロッパにも足を延ばし、幅広く旅を満喫したい方にとって、とても魅力的なシーズンです。
