Entry 6: Time Management Problems



We all know that we have to do lots of things to do. Time management can help us in performance this tasks. It is some how discipline of moving to the next task when we have already spent on this task well enough time. Usually we schedule all our work for instance, meeting with our friends, going to the café. Sometimes it is better to do less important task which will not take much time then do more important but time flexible task. To be sure that time flexible task will not be delayed for indefinite period, people usually write this tasks on their schedule ahead of time. The goal is to look for ways a person can save and invest time.

Entry 5: My Goals and Objectives

One of my goals is to finish university with good knowledge and go abroad. In order to reach my first goal first of all I need to study hard and intend to get as much information as possible during the lessons. Secondly I want to use my knowledge abroad, because I think it is the main reason why people study English. When you have something you want to accomplish, it is important to set both goals and objectives. Learning English can give me the ability to do business overseas and in other countries also English makes me a more valuable hire. I need to go through objectives which I listed in order to achieve my goals and believe that impossible is nothing!

Entry 4: My Study Habits and Learning Style



One of my habits in learning is to write down assignments. Then I can easily repeat it at home. I think it is a good study habit, because we can forget something while sitting on lessons. If we talk about my learning style it is Kinesthetic. For me easier to remember lessons if there are physical activities in the class. People who have kinesthetic learning style can do 2 or more things in 1 time. I am not an exception, while I am doing my homework I have to listen to music, watch the movie and etc. Because otherwise I get bored. The same thing in the university. I get bored when there are no other activities besides writing during a lesson.

Entry 3: The Language of Study


When I studied on 3rd year in lyceum. We had very strict deadlines. We studied hard in order to receive good assessment. We (students) asked each other to review our course work. Because reviewing helped us to find out mistakes. We had to find bibliography, pictures, information and retell it. We wrote a lot of essays, took notes during our study. It was rather hard to get good mark. But some of students intended to finish lyceum with red diploma. And here is also the same think with deadlines. If we didn’t bring our paragraphs on time Our Teacher would subtract some points. That’s why we need not late with our home assignment if we don’t want to lose points.

Entry 2: Debate on Mouse vs. Touch Screen




We started our first debate with discussing what is better, mouse or touch screen. We were divided into 2 groups. Computers incorporate various pieces of equipment that allow the user to interact with the software/operating system. I was for touch screen. Our group tried to prove that touch screen is better than mouse. Both groups did best. I personally think that touch screen is more comfortable to use while you are not doing intensive work. But of course mouse has obvious advantages. For example it is rather difficult to use touch screen for games. I am some how solider with people who say that all new is better than old. In conclusion I want to say that every person prefers which device they want to use.

Entry 1: My First impressions and expectations


I accidentally heard about IELTE program, first I didn't understand what IELTE is. I thought it was somehow connected with IELTS tests. But then I realized that it was program. My first impression from IELTE program is very good. teachers were kind and friendly also we are having a great time learning English language, IELTE program is giving us a great chance to improve our skills by creating only English speaker zone, however our study is more intensive, but at that time our lessons are very interesting. We also have different kind of clubs. We also enjoyed watching movies.  I hope that IELTE program will give us some opportunities in the future. So far I'm glad that I was admitted to this program.
