Hey, everyone! I’m back!
Wow, it’s been a long time since I wrote my last post.
My group and I are sophomores now!
Last week we met with new freshmen. We spent there a great time. It was nice to talk to them, to share some pieces of advice and to warn them about some difficulties. Also, we told them one useful tip, to manage their time, to plan it and to try to do everything in advance.
Then we played one phonetics game with them. It seemed that they liked it, but I’m not sure:)
Moreover, I noticed that their level of English is already pretty great! I was really impressed.
However, I would like them to be more active and talkative. Because when I was talking I had a feeling that there was not enough feedback:(
But I’m sure that they will reveal their potential soon. I’m looking forward to seeing it.
Looking at them I remembered my first year at this University, it seemed pretty hard and now I understand that it was actually hard. And how I’m happy that I overcame all difficulties including life in the dorm, managing with money, solving almost all problems by myself.
Furthermore, of course, there were lots of cool and unforgettable events! I hope new freshmen will enjoy their first year as I did.

Best wishes,
Stacey
