Kampung inggris pare

Kampung inggris pare adalah sebuah desa yg terletak tepatnya di kec. pare kabupaten kediri jawa timur. Akan tetapi menurut saya tidak pantas jika di namai kampung inggris, kenapa? Karena di sana telah di lengkapi dg fasilitas kota seperti cafe ataupun taman-taman kecil. Cafe yg terkenal seperti pare corner, grammar cafe, bali house, ramen bajuri, pare’s, dan masih banyak lagi. Dan ada juga kebun bunga matahari, jambu, belimbing, ataupun taman yg biasanya banyak kita temukan orang belajar di sana.
          Kampung inggris banyak di kenal orang sebagai tempat kursus bahasa inggris dan semua orang memakai bahasa inggris baik tukang warung ataupun pemulung katanya.berita ini membuat sebagian orang mundur ketika punya intend untuk kursusus. Dan, kalian tahu tidak? Pare menurut saya tidak pantas di namai dg kampung inggris karena di sana ada berbagai macam bahasa yg di kursuskan seperti korea, mandarin, jepang, arab dan yg dominannya adalah inggris ada juga kursus coputer. Dan bude warung ataupun mamang bakso juga gx pake bahasa inggris tuh, ada sih... sebagian dari mereka yg menggunakan bahasa inggris.
          Pendiri kampung inggris adalah mr calend,dg nama asli beliau ya’ni muhammad kalen osen berasal dari kalimantan. Kampung inggris di dirikan pada 15 juni 1977. Beliau mendirikan tempat kursus bahasa inggris ya’itu BEC atau basic english course yg awalnya hanya terdiri dari 6 orang, saat itu beliau tidak hanya mengajarkan bahasa inggris saja namun juga beberapa ilmu agama. Kenapa beliau termotivasi untuk membangun  kampung inggris? Awalnya beliau adalah santri di pondok pesantren modern gontor di ponorogo. Akan tetapi setelah beberapa tahun d  pesantren ketika beliau mengijak kelas 5 tidak bisa melanjutkan pembelajaran karena kekurangan biaya bahkan keinginan beliau untuk pulang d kubur dalam-dalam. Dalam situasi ini Beliau medengar berita dari salah seorang teman nya bahwa d kec. Pare ada seorang ustadz yg bernama KH. Ahmad yazid yg memiliki pesantren dan menguasai 8 bahasa, mr. Calend pun tertarik dan menimba ilmu di sana. Dan suatu ketika ada dua mahasiswa dari IAIN sunan ampel surabaya datang ke pesantren KH.yazid karena mereka haru lulus tes B. Arab dan B. Inggris untuk ujian negara. Akan tetapi pada saat itu kiayi Yazid sedang berada di luar kota untuk dakwah beliau. Tidak tahu kenapa ibu nyai yazid memanggil mr. Calen untuk mengajar dua mahasiswa tersebut hanya dalam waktu lima hari. Sebulan kemudian mahasiswa tersebut mengabarkan bahwa meraka lulus ujian negara. Dari sinilah  mr. Callend mulai terkenal dan banyak mendapat recomendid dari mulut ke mulut  untuk berguru dg beliau. Dan di saat itu beliau terfikit untuk menddirikan kampung inggris. Pada tahun 90-an karena banyaknya orang yg kursus d BEC,membuat para alulmni terfikir untuk mendirikan tempat kursusan  hingga sekarng berjumlah sekitar 500 tempat kursus bahasa. Ada beberapa yg tekenal  yaitu lc, daffodils, elfast, webster, mr.bob, bule house dll. Adapun program-program nya ada basic english, intermedia, toefel, IELTS.
