Learning Journal 5 : Practise English while I work.

I've been work in a breakfast store for almost 2 months. There always have some foreignors come to buy their breakfast. Therefore, I have the chance to talk to foreign people and parctise talking in English. But, I've never said words without " Thank you! " , '' Hello ! " , it really boring. So, this week I'm going to change the situation. I wish I could say " Thanks for coming! " while I take their meal to them. Just wait and see this week !!

Learn Journal 2 : Previewing the lesson.

Dear teacher: I'm sorry to post my learn journal so late. But last night when I want to post an article, I can't sign in my blog. I don't know why! So I have to post it this morning. Sorry! I still remember that day when I went to buy the textbook myself, it was a sunny day. I've brought 3 hundred dollers, and I thought it would be enough. But I was wrong! .... The textbook is so expensive, I have to work 4 and half hours to buy it. Since its price is very high, I decided to make the most of it. Therefore, I previewed the lesson before the class last week. Then, I found that the preview work did work! I can understand every word in the book. That is reay nice, though the reason that I being so active on the textbook is not really a great one, but it's good enough for me to improve my learning. I think previewing the lesson before the class is very useful to learn faster, and I wish I can make it a rule to do it!
