English speaking club



English speaking club dedicated to Valentine’s Day.
The meeting was prepared and held by Svitlana Usenko, Svitlana Kolesnikova and students of the National Metallurgical Academy Natalka Karmaz’ and Olga Ignatiuk. All the members of the speaking club were very active, so though the meeting took 6 hours, not all materials provided by them were used.
Natalka Karmaz’ presented us with a vivid slide-show “Happy St Valentine’s Day” (“History and famous quotations about Love”)
The participants of the discussion tuned to a romantic wave and expressed their opinions on the following subjects:
A Woman is…, A Man is…, Love is…
The difference between love and infatuation.
What’s your idea of a perfect day?
Olga gave the participants a task to compose a valentine to a subject of their affection.
There was one more wonderful assignment, i.e. to think up a compliment to one’s neighbor. Everybody  told  something good about the friends from the Club.
Also they watched a short clip about how chocolate, the chief gift on Valentine’s Day is made and listened to nice and romantic  music.
It’s worth mentioning that the club members visited an exhibition of art that took place at the library. This one was dedicated to the art of batik (painting on silk fabrics) and enjoyed amazing works by the local artists.
Then there was a small tea party to relax and to chat a little bit about this and that.
