Let's unite for the future

Europe Day which is held on May 9, celebrates peace 🕊️ and unity 🤝. The English Speaking Practice couldn’t miss the chance to talk about life values and principles. We started off with a discussion of the EU motto “United in Diversity” and shared our thoughts why it’s important to be united and how we can interact with other people. After that we looked through the 6 priorities of the European Commission 2019-2024 and compared them with different countries and our own lives.

We are so grateful that lots of countries support Ukraine and its people during this hard time. And we do believe that soon Ukraine will be a part of that Union 💫.

Time for Culture

The last English Speaking Club meeting was dedicated to Cultural features and we started with a question trying to find out what it it members love more movies 🍿 or plays in the theatre 🎭 . There were some who voted for both and some who chose movie option. Unfortunately Theatre becomes less popular among young generation but there are still so many good things about it. As we always do during our meetings - we discussed themed questions, revised the vocabulary and pretended to be film starts reading some monologues from famous movies.

Are you a cinema or theatre person?

Life Lessons

How to be positive and successful in everyday life? Does it happen by chance or you have to work hard?

Last English Practice we talked about how to succeed in everyday life, how to be optimistic and of course how not to give up after some failures. Our friend and volunteer from Canada taught us some useful phrases and idioms which are very common. We all could improve our English practicing the vocabulary.

It’s really important to be united with others

Ukraine has a big support from Europe and other countries and we can feel that we’re not alone in this world. Thus, last English Practice we talked about the European Union and what are pros and cons of being a part of it.

We watched a short video about Europe Days and discussed why it’s celebrated. After some discussion we learned some idioms related to European Countries such as Go Dutch, When in Rome, Talk for England, Take a French Leave etc.
