New meetings of Speak Out Club

That was a great start of new online meetings where we all gathered to improve our English with the Virtual Service Pilot Participant from Philadelphia. Varley Paul shared an amazing presentation, video and pictures of her city and Pennsylvania State, after which the visitors had some conversation.

We’re impressed that most people who joined this session were from Kherson and they are currently staying in Kherson too. What brave people.

A big thanks to @peacecorpsukraine for support and participation in this event.We want to inform you that we’re going to have such meetings every Tuesday at 15.45 time.

Mutual Help as a lifestyle

    Who is a volunteer? That’s a person with a big and open heart ❤️, who’s always kind and ready to be there for others, who you can count on anytime. We're absolutely sure you can add more details about such people. 

International day of Volunteers is celebrated on December, 5th but it is also a special date for Kherson Oblast Library for Children and for everyone who keeps in touch with volunteers. We are so grateful for amazing people who’ve visited our library at least once in their lifes and made a significant contribution to our community and library development. Lots of Peace Corps Volunteers helped visitors of the library improve their English and other life skills. So many meeting were held by them. We’re still glad to hear from everyone and meet them on our English Practices which we're currently conducting online. 

And also we’re all really thankful for all who support Ukraine 🇺🇦🫶, who help people in need and try to make each day better for others despite their own struggles.
Let’s value these incredible people and do our best to get the victory 🕊️🇺🇦. Together we can do more 🙌

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.

City/ Countryside Lifestyle

Another great class we just had with nice people who are always ready to talk and discuss different topics. Despite I’ve prepared a “City/ Countryside Lifestyle” topic we covered many other questions where we had a real English conversations.

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.
