English Speaking club - Constitution Day and constitutional rights in Ukraine


Today’s English Speaking Club sessions in Dnipropetrovsk Window on America Center started with the introduction of the newcomers.
 All the newcomers were the students of the English language school “Green Forest” who needed extra language practice. 
The topic of today’s session was “Constitution Day and constitutional rights in Ukraine”. 
We have read   the abstract of the Ukrainian Constitution in English and learned some useful terms.
After this activity the discussion drifted to the topic of the human rights in general and   women’s rights in particular.
The video of Hillary Clinton’s speech touching this issue was demonstrated.
The discussion of political and human rights was followed by the discussion of the consumers’ rights and relevant videos were actively discussed.
The consumers’ rights are often violated in Ukraine and every club member described the case from own experience.
The famous quotes about patriotism were offered for translation. Club members exchanged opinions about them.
