ENGLISH 2007

English Course -  2007

Important Considerations 

Folder 

The English folder must be up-to-date all the time. When you receive material, or work you have done (tests, writing, etc) is handed back to you, file it in the correct section immediately. This way, you’ll always have your material on hand (not folded in copybooks, textbooks, or anywhere else where it will most probably get lost!), and will be prepared for surprise/non-surprise folder checks all the time. 

Folder Sections:

1. Grammar (exercises, vocabulary, etc)
2. Writing
3. Reading (in-class reading, reading comprehension, home reading,etc)
4. Verbs (verb lists, verb exercises for verb tests)
5. Miscellaneous ( extra material which does not fit in other sections)
6. Dictations (First, Second Seniors (all levels) and Third Seniors levels B

 Materials 

You should always have the following material with you in English class:

* pens, pencils, erasers, etc.

* copybook

* textbook and workbook

* folder 

* dictionary, if necessary.

 Attitude towards language learning 

Your English teacher will speak to you in English ALWAYS. You should try to do the same. It is the only opportunity you have every day to practice your speaking skills, which will make the difference between you and others in your future, whatever you do after leaving school.  English is all-important, and as I am sure you know, it becomes more important every day. Don’t be scared of making mistakes. This is normal and to be expected. The difference between successful language students and those who are not is that the successful ones learn from their mistakes and take a genuine interest in improving. This is what makes the difference. If you want to learn to swim, theory is useful, but to really be able to do it, you have to jump into the water at some moment. The same goes for language learning. If you want to communicate, you’ll have to speak. What better opportunity than to do it with someone who wants the best for you, and to give you all that is possible for your benefit in the future?                                  

Take advantage of your teacher!
