To the International Student’s Day

This afternoon the GABFEST speaking club session (Window on America center in Dnipro, Ukraine) was attended by our American volunteer – Mr. Jason.

As the topic of the session was “International Students’ Day” we have asked our guest about his work with students in Ukraine. Mr. Jason spend a lot of time as a native-speaking teacher of English with young and adult learners. We asked him to name the most striking differences between the students in Ukraine and in the USA. Once a difference was named the club members tried to explain to our foreign guest why that particular difference exists. University students present at the session named the most typical features of a Ukrainian student and explained them to our US guest.

Another guest at the session was Mr. Mikhail who shared his experiences about the student exchange “Work and Travel USA” several years ago. The Club members had fun listening to the stories about work opportunities in Alaska at fish processing plants.
The session was educational as well as: the participants   learned quite a few idiomatic phrases and new words relevant to the topic.
Participants number – 35 person.
