What’s your choice: city or countryside?

Living in a big city or a small town - which is the best option for you? As for me I prefer cities with lots of interesting places to visit and entertainment for all family. However there are some advantages of living in small towns such as lack of traffic jams, quiet streets and moderate lifestyle. Yesterday with the members of English Practice we compared lifestyles, found pros and cons and imagined how our lives would be different if we lived in different places.

Time heals

Last Sunday lots of countries changed the time so did Ukraine 🇺🇦. Thus our Speaking Practice we dedicated to TIME.

We had a nice class with lots of speaking and discussions. Some of the phrases such as “Time heals”, “Me-Time”, “Go through the Hard Time” we found very essential especially during this war period so we shared our thoughts on how to stay calm and positive.

Walt Disney World

I had a nice class with schoolchildren of @dieslovo.ks which we dedicated to the events in the past. Because mostly kids love Disney characters we decided that they could help make the lesson more entertaining.

We looked through some Past Simple rules and consolidated them having different activities. I’m so glad we have zoom meetings cause we all can be united even if we’re far away from each other. 

I believe that one day we’ll meet each other at the @library_kherson_ua and @dieslovo.ks 

Speaking Practices

One of my favorite things to do on Monday is to conduct English Speaking Practice. Thanks to our friend from Canada who always helps improve our pronunciation and understand some idioms and phrases. Thanks @pearsonofficial for great resources in learning the language.

And of course a huge thanks to our participants who have been taking part in our conversations for a long time.

Be part of our team and learn English while having fun.

You’re never too old to have child’s memory

Yesterday’s meeting of the English Practice we dedicated to Theme Parks. There’s no person who hasn’t been to an amusement park at least once in their life. So we all had some memories (whether they’re good or bad ones) of visiting such places. Of course at the beginning we learned some vocabulary and then talked about our favorite rides and attractions.

It was great to enrich our vocabulary on this topic and improve our speaking skills

Do you like plan your future?

There’s one good thing about having zoom meetings is that people can join from all over the world. Thus last time we had members from the USA, Ireland, Poland, Croatia, Kazakhstan and of course Ukraine.

We talked about our future and how to make plans in English, revised some grammar, learned new expressions and made different predictions.

After one week of absence, we’re back to our English Speaking meetings again

 After one week of absence, we’re back to our English Speaking meetings again.

We talked a lot about movies and learned some vocabulary related to the topic. Our participants told how they choose which movie to watch, share different experiences going to the cinema and made a list of their favorite ones. We didn’t have time to do all the activities I’ve got for them so we’ll probably continue discussing this topic on Monday.

Be Style - Be Cool

What style is yours? This and other questions we discussed today with our American friends and active members of online speaking club. We all tried to find out with our own style and described it with 3 adjectives. Then we could compare specific names of some clothes that are popular in the USA and Ukraine. At the end we played a funny game categories and revised our English vocabulary.
