Study English in the Philippines
There are a lot of reasons why you should study English in the Philippines. Language training in the Philippines is not only popular to students, but also for office workers and seniors. This is because companies take care of the accommodation and meals, along with the English program. Since the pandemic, most workers have become accustomed to working at home as there are many companies that allow this work set up. Regardless of their different lifestyles, their interest in English is the same. It cannot be denied that some may just focus on their speaking skills more while students want to get higher scores.

Monol and the Recreational English Training Approach for 2023
We have talked about the different activities that you can do in Baguio and now we will introduce the activities that you can do and enjoy inside Monol. Monol’s facilities may seem similar, but there are actual differences.
First, golf practice and lessons are available inside Monol. You can have individual practice or lessons at the driving range. Field lessons are also available upon request.

We also have cycles and weights. The best thing is that there is a trainer to help you work out effectively. Physical exercise can even be better in Monol as there is a separate space for stretching, yoga, boxing, and Muay Thai.
The rooftop of Monol is meant to be a healing space where you can go and rest at any time, not just for exercise. Monol’s view deck boasts the scenery of Baguio’s city and mountain view. Appreciating the scenery can be better with a cup of hot tea or cold beer depending on your mood at Monol’s rooftop lounge. Before you run out of things to do on our rooftop, don’t forget to end your day with relaxing in our hot sauna.
Monol offers a lot of facilities and services that students can enjoy but there are also regulations that students must follow to balance leisure and studies. You can go out and explore the city as long as you do not miss your classes. Moreover, it is not allowed to bring alcohol inside the campus but with our rooftop lounge, you can have up to two bottles of beer and still have a good time.
Living in Monol
When you study, there can be really frustrating days, right? You may think, “I want to take a sip of cold beer.” Drinking is allowed to relieve stress as long as you avail alcoholic drinks in Monol’s rooftop lounge only. Remember, you cannot bring any type of alcohol inside the campus and drink secretly as you will be penalized for violating the rules. We respect that everyone is an adult but Monol only penalizes behavior that will harm others.
Another good thing aside from the controlled alcohol access is that you can connect to Monol’s Wi-Fi at any time at a stable speed anywhere in the building. It is really convenient to set up your home office in your dormitory and study English in the classroom.
