- Hi, Jesús. The words are interchangeable enough that you would usually be perfectly understood using either finish or end. But for example, 'he will finish the race' sounds better than 'he will end the race' because ending the race makes it sound like he is quitting. In asking this question it is clear that you're making note of situational usages of words. That is great. Good job.0 votedMarch 15, 20142
I recommend checking out ELC York. If you google that it should come up. I remember that they had easy instructions on how to apply.
It is not difficult to pass. You just have to show up and try. You are working non-stop for about a month but it's easy to make friends the other people in the course and it becomes kind of a big group activity all day.
I'd imagine the courses in the UK are considered amongst the best. I had a good experience in York.
It is pretty expensive. Maybe about $2,000 US dollars. If you take it in a less expensive country it may be a bit cheaper.

That's a very interesting question and there is no perfectly defined defintion, but at least in the eyes of Britain and the United States, Communism put a sharp boundary between East and West during the Cold War between United States and Russia. Since places like the Czech Republic and Berlin, Germany are no longer behind 'The Iron Curtain' of Russian control, perhaps you could consider them western. Many consider New Zealand and Australia western also, and I would certainly agree. Also, most of Russia is geographically considered part of Asia, so perhaps that alone makes many people hesitant to count them as Western. I hope that helps. - Troy0 votedMarch 5, 20140
