Time to say good bye


I just want to tell you all how happy I am to teach you.


When I first learned that I had to teach during summer, my first reaction was "?!?". I was speechless! I have heard 'rumours' about how 'difficult' it is to teach '501' since most students don't like English. So I came to meet you with rather 'heavy' heart.


But you have changed everything. I've found my students rather polite and determined to study. The atmosphere in class was rather quiet at first, but when we got to know each other better, there were laughters and smiles most of the time. I think 'positive' attitude really helps make learning easier and better!


I hope you have learned enough to help you 'read' better. The skills we've practiced in class were basic tools to help you know how to 'read'. Dictionary is still important since you are not English-major students. So use it with confidence. And when you see really 'long' sentences, don't get panic. Use your sentece analysis technique. It helps!


Now, please tell me what you think about this class. Do you think you have learned enough to help you read better? What do you want us to teach you more? These information will be really helpful for our next classes ka.


Good luck on your exam and sucess on your study na ka.
