The memory in Manchester

Now I like to show the photos I took in Manchester during I studied.



I studied phrasal verb at the class. There are huge words in the area. We couldn’t get a good score when we examined it. A friend who is from Switzerland decided to buy the book, phrasal verb. We almost exhausted learning about phrasal verb because it hardly memorized. But the class was fun. The teacher, Catherine is very nice and funny. She’s energetic, cheerful and charming. She always taught us very exciting and full of laugh.



We went to a restaurant after finished a class. A friend who is from Mexico finished her course and we celebrated she finally passed the exam.


Wales


I went to Wales with Maggie. The weather was not fine but sometimes the sunshine was from could sky. She and I had a great time.
We were walking along the shore while we were talking about our future. She want to be an editor of magazine. Now she works for a correspondence of Daily telegraph in Bejing.


I lived with a Greek family then an English family. Olga is very kind and helpful. When I arrived at the house, she made me comfortable like I was at home. She helped me to learn English hard that she told me her experience how to study abroad. Alex, her son, is quite easygoing. He only eat 5 things and don’t eat fruits. He liked to play the guitar in his room and I was the only one audience for me.
I moved to Maria’s house and her son, Ciro, Italian-English, is very tall. He’s only 15years old but his tall is almost 180 cm. He’s childish but caring of his cat. He feed them every day and played.

Howdy? I think that Manchester is the best place to live . When I look at these pictures , I feel good . I suppose that it is wonderful opportunity to learn and travel. Actually I need to learn English on abroad but I do not have some moneys to take course . The Internet is the best choice for me beside to practise with native speaker , to read number of text . Thus I really need to travel and learn English at the same time

We can feel how friendly you are. I agree with you. The subject so called "phrasal verbs" is a phanton for me. I think your vocabulary is very rich and I am very sad because it's your final week. No more we will read your stories...

Nice photos. I envy you a little. I think, that the best way to learn foreign language is to use it, especially in places where it's english is official language. Besides, it is a great opportunity to travel na visiting new countries, new people, new cultures, new habits, etc. Bye for now!

Hello, Lee, the pictures are good and I like all of them. It seems that you were too busy to write or respond to comments of Stephen. Looking forward for something new Farida

Hi Soyoung, Your learning English experience in Manchester might be wonderful. Are you still having contact with the teachers and classmates? Do the teachers still guide you to learn English? How did you feel after attending the class? Have you satisfied the performance and outcome of the results? How was your level before starting the class? How about the fees and expenses, is it very high? I feel that you might have improved a lot after the class. Please continue your effort on improving the language. If you do that one you write like Stephen.

Dear Soyoung! All what you have told us was OK, just perfect. It was pleasure and honest for me, and I am waiting for the next. Ahh, I´ve just remembered of a crazy thing I made. I was blond at your age!

Hello .I need to tell you again. Yesterday I have an opportunity to meet two teachers from America in university of Xavier. I am very exciting . They come to Thailand at first time . The objective is that they need to announce scholarship of their university. They go to Chiang Mai university and Khonkaen university. This is the first experience that I meet foreigner one by one in American corner room .I ask some questions about how to apply for English course , routine , expense , law in their university . I want a scholarship after I graduate . I plan to study abroad .Suddenly I remind that after see your title of "The memory in Manchester". It strikes to me that I have to learn English more . <<<<<<<<BEST WISHES >>>>>>

I liked so much your photos. And about phrasal verbs isn´t easy to internalize but when we learn is so good to practice everyday.

Thanks for all your contributions. This blog has now closed and can no longer accept new comments.
