Grammar Revolution

Today’s session of the Gabfest Club (at Window on America center Dnipropetrovsk, Ukraine) was dedicated to the celebration of the GRAMMAR DAY which normally takes place on March, 04.
We have watched a video about the US group of enthusiasts “Grammar Revolution” and discussed the importance of grammar for adults. Each club member shared his/her experience of grammar related academic work in Russian or Ukrainian.
The next topic for discussion was the international tests of English. We have watched a video in which TOEFL and IELTS were compared by a Belgian participant of the Fulbright exchange program. The club members were asked to tell which test they would chose and why. The Club members who had a chance to pass the international English language tests shared their experiences with the group.
Our next grammar activity was to analyze common errors the English learners do.
To round up the grammar topic we have listened to the You Tube videos of songs that helped to practice English verbs and tenses.
The new comers to the Club introduced themselves and listened to the introductions of the regular Club members.
The session was educational and useful for all the participants.
The session was enjoyed by all the participants.



Participants – 23 persons.
